After February 17, 2009, your regular television set will require a converter box to receive over the air broadcasts with an antenna. This is because North American broadcasters will be serving their markets with a digital television signal. Cable subscribers will probably need new DTV equipment as well to be able to receive any signal. Since you're going to have to spend money to watch what you're watching now, you might as well put that money towards a new digital television set or an HDTV set right now. It only makes sense, doesn't it?

HDTV provides the highest picture quality and the highest resolution of all digital broadcast formats. When you combine that with the new digitally enhanced sound technologies on the market today, you can actually create a home theater environment that your whole family can enjoy.

To get started in HDTV just remember that you need three things.

1. You obviously need a high definition television set [HDTV]

2. You need an HDTV satellite receiver or a digital set top box.

3. You need to subscribe to satellite or cable HD [high definition] programming.

Once ...
... you have those three things you are now capable of watching HDTV in your home. There are still many people who go home after purchasing a brand-new HDTV and wonder why they're not seeingg anything different than before. your HDTV will receive a signal, just like any other television at this point, but without the other two items you will only receive standard analog television signals. And believe me, once you start watching high-definition television you can really notice the difference in quality from a standard broadcast. In fact, some people have difficulty watching what they feel is now a "washed out picture" on a standard broadcast.

And it won't matter if you get a flat-panel type, like an LCD or a Plasma set, or a rear projection set style in DLP, LCD orLCoS. As long as they are capable of receiving high-definition signals, you'll be good to go. The type you buy will depend on where you want it to go, the room you have and how fashionable you want to be. Just make sure whatever you buy is HD ready.

Digital sound, digital video recorders or DVRs and an HD [high definition] disc player, will complete an amazing home theater experience.
