I hope you didn't spend all of your money on the TV because there a few things you may want to budget for if you are not particularly handy around the house.

Where are you going to install your Flat Screen?

If you are going to mount your TV on the wall there is something very important for you to consider

Do you have a TV outlet installed at the height you want your TV? Even if you said yes ...I am sorry it will not be enough. Allow me to explain.

Can you picture where your existing TV is set up? Maybe it's in an entertainMent center. Now close your eyesand see all of those wires that connect between your Television & your satellite box, DVD player and receiver.

Why do I bring this up?

If you hang your TV on the wall with a standard TV jack installed there-

What about all of those wires that we just talked about? How do you plan on connecting all of those wires that are needed to work all of your electronic equipMent?

I told you that no one thinks about this.

Unfortunately, with a single cable TV jack over the Fireplace ... your ONLY option is to stack your:

· Satellite receiver

· Cable TV box

· Surround sound receiver

· DVD player

All on top of your beautiful Fireplace!

Or have a bunch of ugly wiresdraped all over the place serving as a serious tripping hazard

Can you imagine moving into a beautiful new home and seeing all of those pieces of equipMent balancing on your mantel?

You would be surprised how many new homes are built this way. They install just a simple TV jack over the Fireplace. The homebuilders are totally clueless. Unfortunately, its up to you, the homeowner to foot the bill to wire this correctly.

So what can we do about it?

If you want the best signal possible, Then HDMI cables are the way to go. One HDMI cable run through the walls will do the work of all of those other wires we spoke of moMents ago. To have this professionally done I would budget from $ 395-$ 595 for HDMI cables, depending on how long they need to be.

You canprobably save two hundred Dollars if you do this yourself.

Remember that buying the flat screen TV is just the beginning of your investment to have HD TV in your home.
