In order to get started setting up your Roku player you will need some items. When you get your Roku player you will find in the actual Roku box, the replay remote control, 2 triple A batteries, the power adapter and a RCA (white,yellow,red) cable set. You will also need whatever internet connection you will use and the TV in which you will connect the Roku.
There are some other items that you might need if you don't have them already. If in the case you don't have a wireless internet connection you will need to use the ethernet cable to connect to the player. If you have a Hi-Definition TV you will have to pick up the HDMI cables to use the Hi-Definition capabilities of the box.
Here Are The 4 Steps To Setting Up Your Roku HD Player:
1.) You must first connect the Roku to your TV set. You can either do this with the RCA (white,yellow,red) cords that came with the package. For the Hi-Definition TV's you will have to purchase the HDMI cord. Connect either the RCA or the HDMI cables from the TV terminals to the coordinating plugs on the back of the Roku Player.
2.) What you must do now is take the batteries that came with the replay remote control and put them into the control. After that you can power up the Roku box with the power adapter the unit came with. The adapter goes from the back of the Roku player to your choice of electrical power.
3.) Now its time for you to actually connect to the internet with your player. Like we said before depending on your connection you could either connect the ethernet cable from your modem to the player or if you have a wireless connection the wi-fi in the player will automatically pick it up. Its just like adding another computer to your home network. It is the same concept. Follow the screen that will guide you through turn by turn instructions so you don't miss anything in the process.
4.) If you have a wi-fi connection then you can follow the rest of the set up screens. If you had to use the ethernet cable to connect your box then you will want to turn on your Roku player and follow the instructions given.
That's pretty much all there is to it. This system that was created for the Roku makes it so simple to set it up even a cave man could do it. From whatever TV the player is connected to you have a bunch of side options that will no doubt give you a more advanced viewing pleasure. The only thing left to do is to connect to your favorite media platform and start having fun with the streaming player.
One important note on the player when you first begin using it you will have to set up some 1 time details when you first choose a channel or platform. Its not that bad though because you only have to go through this process one time. Some media outlets actually don't charge you for using their media but others you might have to pay a subscription fee.
Until you actually go out and buy the Roku player make sure that you have went and looked at the Roku HD Review that we have put together. This will ensure that you are indeed satisfied with your player and don't regret buying it.

Now that you've finally purchased your home theater system and gotten it connected, you can sit back and immerse yourself in that Home Theater experience, right in the comfort of your own home. Chances are, though, if you're like most people, you haven't really taken the important steps to make sure that you're maximizing your experience. There's plenty of little things you can do to improve your sound and picture, as well as to make your Home Theater Experience more enjoyable. Doing these things will make sure you're getting the most out of your system. So what are some things you can do to get the most out of your new Home Theater System?
1) Connect your equipment with quality Cables
You'll hear so many different theories on whether quality cables are worth the expense or not. We believe they are! That doesn't mean that you have to get the most expensive cables money can buy (and they CAN get expensive). You'll have to do your research and purchase what you're comfortable getting, and keep in mind that there's a point of diminishing return, where you have to spend a lot more money for a little bit of return. That point is different for everyone, but some things you should look for are:
* Quality connectors - The connector should make solid contact when plugged in, for maximum signal transfer. Also, you don't want your cable to fall apart or ruin the component it's plugged into. Quality connectors will make sure that your cable stays in place and makes good contact.
HDMI Cables have two well-documented issues with the physical connection. The HDMI Cables are known to work themselves loose or pull out easily, resulting in an intermittent or lost signal. Also, HDMI Inputs are known to be fragile, and the stress from the HDMI Cable can cause damage internally to the HDMI port, or the HDMI Cable itself. Higher quality cables usually have a better fit in the input, but they are also usually a heavier guage cable which can cause other issues. If you have a loose HDMI Connection or are concerned about damaging your HDMI Input, there are some products out there that can help, such as hd EZ lock, the only Universal Locking HDMI Cable adapter available.
* Shielded Cables - Certain cables (usually low voltage cables such as RCA's and HDMI's) are subject to electrical interference, which can enter the cable and introduce noise into your system. This translates to hearing buzzing and humming through your speakers, or seeing "noise" in your picture. Shielded Cables are designed to block these signals from entering your cable.
* Cable Material - Cables are manufactured using different materials, from Copper to Silver. There's also different grades of metals. These can make a difference in the type of sound as well as the quality of the sound - more spacious, more detail, brighter or warmer, etc.
* Cable Geometry - There are many different ways that Cable Manufacturers design cables, but the most common type found in better cables is a twisted geometry. Twisting the cables in a specific way can cancel out unwanted noise that might get into the cable, as well as controlling the phase of the sound, making sure that all frequencies arrive at the same time.
In our opinion, you will notice a difference in analog cables, such as Audio RCA Cables and Video Component Cables, but there's still a lot of debate as to the difference in the quality of HDMI Cables. While we don't subscribe to the "digital is digital - you either get it or you don't" theory, there seems to be plenty of people claiming to have done extensive side by side testing and are unable to see a significant difference. One important thing with HDMI Cables though is the ability to pass a 1080p signal, particularly at longer runs. This is where you will see a significant difference in HDMI Cable quality (see speed rated cables).
2) Invest in a quality Line Conditioner
Line Conditioners, or Power Conditioners, are surge protectors on steroids. Quality Line Conditioners offer a high level of surge protection. Many will cover under-voltage (from brownouts) as well as electrical spikes, such as from lightning storms. They also filter your AC power, eliminating noise that travels along the AC line and into your equipment. The result is your equipment operates at the voltage and frequency it's designed to operate at, which optimizes performance. Although many factors can determine how much of an improvement you'll notice, you can expect an improvement in sound and picture quality.
3) Speaker Placement
Most people find a place where their speakers fit or look good, drop them in place and enjoy. Speaker placement is very important to getting the best sound out of your speakers. Speaker placement theory is a very complicated subject, but there are some things you can do very easily to improve your speaker placement. If possible, I recommend your front three speakers (left, center and right) to be around ear level, when your seated. Also, if you can have the left and right speaker be equidistant from the center speaker, and from your seating position, the sound from the speakers will arrive to you at the same time.
I prefer rear speakers to be above ear level, even mounting them higher on the wall if possible. This gives the effect of more spacious surround sound. If you're doing a 5.1 system, they should be positioned on the side, slightly behind you, or behind you. If you're doing a 7.1 system, your surround speakers should be mounted beside you, or slightly behind you on the sides, and the surround back speakers should be mounted behind you.
Also, many people believe that since bass is non-directional, that you can just drop your subwoofer anywhere it fits. While it's true that you can place the sub anywhere in the room and most likely it will provide tons of bass, there are places in your room that will sound better than others. One method you can try is to put the subwoofer where you would normally sit, then walk around the room with your ear at the normal subwoofer height until you find the location that gives you the best bass output combined with the best sound.
4) Proper Connections
Double check your connections to make sure everything is connected properly. This can effect not only ease of use, but also performance. For example, if you have your front two speakers connected out of phase - the left one connected properly but the right one you've reversed the positive and negative speaker wires - you'll experience what's called "cancellation". That is, most notably with lower frequencies, because the speakers are wired so that they are working opposite of each other, you will hear a cancellation of bass. That means you will hear much lower bass levels than if they were connected properly in phase.
Also, it can be much more convenient to use your Home Theater system if you use your AV Receiver as an AV switcher. That means you'd run all of your audio and video into your Receiver, and then your receiver would send the selected signal to the TV. So when you select DVD Player on your receiver, you'll hear the DVD through your speakers and see the DVD on your TV, without having to change inputs on your TV.
5) Proper Settings
Take the time to go through your menu settings in all of your components. If necessary - and I know this is hard to hear - read the Owner's Manual so that you understand what the settings do. Play around with some settings to see what sounds best to you. For example, if you have big, Floor-standing speakers, you may find that your system sounds better if you have your front speaker setting is set to large. Many people assume if they have a subwoofer, that you have to set your front speakers to small, even if they aren't small. Play around and see what sounds better.
Make sure that all of your speakers are turned on in the menu system, and check their levels - how loud they are in relation to the other speakers. You can adjust the speaker levels in the menu (think of an independent volume control for each speaker) to get the sound the way you like it. Many people make the mistake of jacking the levels up on each speaker. That's not the purpose of speaker level control...that's what the main volume is. I recommend raising the level as little as possible...I prefer to lower the level than to raise the level. Raising the level too much can mean that you'll hear more distortion from your speakers when you turn it up.
Also, many of the newer AV Receivers on the market now have an auto calibrate feature. They include a microphone that you can place in your seating position, then through feedback they measure your room's acoustics and automatically adjust your settings. I've had mixed feelings about this. Sometimes it works great, other times I've preferred to adjust the setting manually.
So take the time to go through your AV Receiver settings, as well as your TV picture settings to make sure everything is set up properly.
6) Use a Calibration Disc to fine tune your system
Calibration discs such as the ones by Avia, Digital Video Essentials, or Monster Cable discs are a great way to optimize your sound and picture. They provide you with test patterns used to adjust things like contrast, brightness, colors, etc. They also provide you with different tools to fine tune your audio system.
7) Control your Lighting
To get the best experience possible from your Home Theater System, you have to be able to control the lighting in the room. Direct light right on your TV screen will have a huge effect on your experience...it's hard to enjoy your system if you can't really see the screen. Make sure you have the ability to block out lighting and darken your room when watching a movie. Also, pay attention to the lighting in the room. If you have bright lights shining directly on your screen, or directly into your eyes, it will take quite a bit away from your experience. Experiment with indirect lighting, such as sconces, or use dimmers and shades to control your lighting environment.
8) Clean your Screen
Many companies such as Monster Cable, Audio Quest, Belkin and more make a solution that allows you to safely clean your TV screen. Excessive dust and grime will take away from the quality of your picture. Also, using an improper cleaning solution can damage your TV screen by leaving permanent streaks. Many TVs have a protective coating over the TV screen surface. Some cleaning solutions, particularly ammonia based cleaning solutions can ruin that coating, leaving permanent streaks in the surface of the TV screen.
9) The Best Seat in the House
Unfortunately, most of us don't have a dedicated home theater room, so we have to work around our existing furniture. And in those cases, sometimes there's only so much you can do. But sometimes, even small changes to your seating position can improve sound. The best seat in the house has an equal distance to both the left and the right speaker. If possible, take a look at your seating arrangement and see if you can move things around to put yourself in a better position.
Also, try to make sure you're not blocking your speakers with another piece of furniture, large plant, etc. Pay attention to your environment and see where you can make sacrifices. If you can't get your seat in a prime position, most receivers now have Digital Sound Processing (DSP) settings to compensate, but I always recommend starting with your seating position so you'll have less adjustments to do later.
10) Be in Control
So you've got this great system installed, and now you've followed the nine steps above to really dial in your system and it looks and sounds great! Then you pick up one of the five remotes, and hit the wrong button, and NOTHING!!! Nothing's more frustrating than not being able to figure out how to use your system. Only slightly better is having to go through a series of buttons on one remote, then another remote, then another remote.
Most remotes that come with your TV, AV Receiver, or Cable box have basic universal functions, but they never seem to do exactly what you want them to do. There are quality Remote Controls, such as the Harmony Remotes, or more advanced remotes like Philips Pronto or Universal Brand remotes that will do everything you want to do, from a single remote.
Most of the better universal remotes can be programmed from your PC. Some are very simple, such as the Harmony remotes, and others more advance. They have the ability to program macros - one button operation. If you want to watch a DVD, you hit "watch DVD" and the remote sends out multiple commands: Turns on the TV and turns it to the right input, Turns on the AV Receiver and switches to the DVD input, turns on the DVD and starts to play it. All from the single touch of a button.
Hit the wrong button? Just hit "watch DVD" again and it will fix everything for you. So now we've given you 10 easy ways to really enjoy your Home Theater System. If you take the time to take care of the details, you'll be amazed at the difference these simple steps can make.

Taking a look back into the change of technology over the past ten years, it is hard to incorporate some of the new technology with old. Even though you bought a brand new TV that does not mean that everything going into it has to be updated as well. However, the cables that go into your components such as HDMI Cables, Component Cables and RCA Cables may need some adjusting or updating.
HDMI cables have been one of the most quality improvements in regards to transporting audio and video. HDMI cables transmit sound and video digitally at the speed of light which requires no conversion to the video or audio coming through. Because of the way HDMI Cables keep the integrity of audio and video, they are consistently used for connecting DVD players, cable or satellite and music input through only one cable that is also interchangeable with many different kinds of converters and adapters. HDMI cables are your best bet for keeping the wire configurations to a minimum and getting the most out of it.
However, keep in mind that whatever is put into the HDMI Cable does not mean that it will be HD. So the image and sound of your BlueRay Player will not be the same as watching your 1984 home videos through it. The number of HDMI plug-ins on your television may be limited which would mean that you may have to pick and choose which devices take priority.
Component Cables are essentially video cables that are split up into three components. If you are looking to bring to life that 1984 old home video, than this may be what you need to help relive those memories without them becoming pixilated and or stretched. The name 'component cables' is derived from the fact that different signals are separated from each other in order to prevent interference with each other. Most component cables are split up by video and audio transmissions. The video transmissions are also separated further sometimes into color based transmissions which include S-Video, RGB and YPbPr.
Component Cables can run anywhere from a half foot to 50 feet in length. They are easy to plug in because most televisions have color coordinated plug-ins on multiple locations of the TV. This means that if you are in need of a quick use of component cable plug-ins (such as a video camera) they are easy to get to and provide a quick way of getting what you want on the big screen.
The most popular type of component cables are called RCA Cables which always consist of a male end that is color coordinated and has a copper ring around the input which provides flexibility and stability. Unlike HDMI Cables, the gauge of HDMI Cables is irrelevant to the quality that comes out. However, the quality of the cables is important as well. Consider the engineering of the cord and how it will be used. You don't want to send such thin RCA Cables through the attic that gets upwards of 140 degrees in the summer nor do you want to coil up 10 feet of RCA Cable behind your entertainment center.
While building your entertainment center, consider the priority of your video and audio devices and the capabilities of your TV, then measure out the length, gauge and quality of your prioritized cable needs and you will have gotten more out of your home entertainment center than you could have imagined.
