Sydney has seen a massive rise in the demand for home theater systems and widescreen, digital-ready TV sets. Australia is experiencing a healthy economy at the moment and continues to modernize. Many shops in the city would love nothing more than to sell you ne of these expensive home entertainment systems and will stop at almost nothing to get you the best system which they have in stock.
But you should not be fooled by most of them.
For starters, the systems offered by most retailers are identical in every respect other than brand name. There are only so many companies making these high end home theater systems, after all. None of these retailers have their own private, secret manufacturer who no one else knows about.
Another thing, the sales commission structure on these home theatre systems often is a conflict of interest. The sales rep is forced to put his commission or bonus interest ahead of really getting you the best system that suits your needs and desires.
Neither will these retailers install your system for you. They are unconcerned with the setup of your home, whether you have the space for a given system or much of anything else beyond selling you the most expensive system in the store or the one which they need to reduce inventory levels of. There is little chance that you will be asked any questions to determine whether the system they are pushing is right for your home.
These systems are typically the most elaborate, they have the most wires to run, the most remote controls to coordinate and program, the most components. The more complex the home theatre system looks, the more the buyer thinks it must have more features and benefits, and the more the sales rep plays upon that perception to sell the system.
YOU will have a terrible time trying to put this system together yourself in your home, and it will drive you nuts trying to separate all those wires, put them in the right places, and keep them from getting tangled or being an eyesore. And good luck and pack a lunch as you try to get the remotes correctly coordinated. Hook something up wrong and you may even damage your system and that won't be covered by the flimsy warranty.
At best, you may get a referral to a service provider from the retailer. This service provider will come out to your home and install the home theater system for you - for a hefty price. This fee is of course not included in the price of the system itself.
Even worse, if the service provider makes some kind of error in setup, the retailer will be of no help to you. And if the retailer has sold you a system which does not work for your home, the service provider will similarly be of no help to you and you will simply have lost time and money - a lot of money.
You would be best served by going to a home theater electronics specialist. You can save a lot of time and money this way, not to mention hassle.
An independent electronics consultant can be of great help to you here - they will work with you to figure out what you want in a home theater system and how this will integrate into your home. They will then install the system for you and their service is backed by a guarantee.
Don't even think about buying a home theatre entertainment system until you have met with such a consultant.
