Dear Consumer,

In the world of high definition, seeing is believing.

But we also understand it may not be as easy as 1-2-3. In fact, HD can be downright intimidating. Faced with a new equipment investment and a collection of new technical terms that could throw you for a loop, we know you may have questions.

To help sweep away the confusion, Discovery HD Theater has designed this fun and interactive HD buyer's guide. Our aim is to help you find the answers you're looking for -- and without any distractions. Whether you're an HD novice or if you're already testing the waters, we've got the answers for you.

Aren't familiar with all the connections on back of an HD set -- or those of your set top box for that matter? Find out what all those colored connections are for and what all of the corresponding cables actually look like. Don't know the difference between a CRT, a DLP or an RPTV? Don't worry! You'll be a proud expert after this visit.

But before you get started, don't forget to bookmark this site! After all, if you forget something, or if you'd like to come back for a quick reference, the glossary and FAQ (frequently asked questions) sections may come in handy. We'll also be sure to keep our comparison chart updated with the latest HD equipment offerings and price estimates.

If you haven't seen the world in high definition, you haven't seen it at all.
