Doctor Sound Has Prescription for Home Entertainment System Woes

The complexity of home entertainment systems has gone beyond the abilities of most homeowners to make components work together properly. Doctor Sound offers timely advice for consumers planning to install a new home theater or sound system, or upgrade an existing one for the holidays.

Lewisville, Tex., December 6, 2006 – Consumer electronics do-it-yourselfers, beware this Christmas season. Peril awaits that can sap your holiday spirit, exhaust your patience and leave your home entertainment systems with unfathomable infirmities.

It starts innocently when you get that new component, or perhaps more than one. Individually, each seems simple enough to set up, but the integration, the dark art of making those beautiful boxes work together, is another matter entirely.

If you understand the jargon - terms such as interlaced, progressive and anamorphic, intermixed with numbers like 1080i, 16/9, 3:2, 7.1, 480p and 960i – you still must be something of a wizard to figure which cord goes where.

Once everything is connected, or approximately so, you may find not all the features work as expected. How do you switch from FM to DVD seamlessly? Why is there no sound when you press Play?

Here’s a better question: What if operating your home entertainment system were as simple as playing your iPod? It can be, thanks to Doctor Sound Home Theater, Inc., the company established expressly to diagnose and treat home entertainment system disorders.

Doctor Sound President Keith Prather advises that whether you have all new components still in the box, if you are adding components to an existing system, or if your system just has “issues,” Doctor Sound can make it work right.

Prather’s company got its start 10 years ago installing equipment people already had purchased elsewhere. “I was working in a big box store, increasingly finding myself being asked to help people connect all the gear they bought there,” Prather said. “That experience convinced me there was a real need for a service that could help people get the performance they expected.”

The need for this service is even greater today, Prather says, given the complexity of new components and the wider range of functions, such as Internet connectivity, people want in their home entertainment systems. Doctor Sound now sells a full range of audio and video equipment, but installation and diagnostic work remains a big part of the company’s business, regardless of where a customer’s equipment was purchased.

Doctor Sound provides free estimates for installation and diagnostic work. When finished, company technicians – all certified by the Custom Electronics Design and Installation Association – will show you how to get the most out of your system. Prather urges consumers seeking professional installation help to contact Doctor Sound now to ensure completion in time for the holiday season.
