As I watched the first ever College Football Playoff Championship game last night, I only had one thing on my mind: “I need a better setup for the Big Game.”
You know which Big Game I’m talking about.
Don’t get me wrong – the CFP Championship was fantastic. Watching Ohio State battle it out with Oregon was one of the greatest games I’ve seen all year. But seeing the action on a 32” 720p display wasn’t exactly the best football viewing experience. The colors were muted, the sound was low, and the entire time I was thinking how much better it could be.
But I won’t be making the same mistake when the pros take the field in a few weeks.
It’s time to ditch my seven-year-old TV, upgrade my weak sound system, and finally throw the football viewing party of my dreams. And if you’re as big a sports fan as I am, you probably want to do the same.
Here’s what you need to throw the ultimate party on Super Sunday:
#1 InFocus 800×600 SVGA Projector – $279.99
The most important thing to consider for a football viewing party is what you’re going to use to watch the game. And while there are many big screen TV’s that offer a superb viewing experience, nothing beats a projector. After all, you might as well go big for the Big Game, right?
The InFocus IN112a Projector is perfect for your party because it’s compact, powerful, and affordable. Its 10,000-hour lamp is one of the longest-lasting and HDMI connectivity makes it easy to hook up to your TV set. It’s also 3D-ready so you can use it to watch your favorite movies once the game is over.
#2 Elite Screens Projection Screen – $62.99
Sure, you could project the game onto a blank wall. But why should you limit your party to the indoors? A projection screen lets you watch the game wherever you want and guarantees you always have the best viewing experience possible.
The Elite Screens Projection Screen features a 16:9 HDTV resolution on top of MaxWhite screen material. This material provides the widest possible angles with perfect diffusion and will make the game look better than ever. It’s also easy to clean and can be installed on walls, garage doors, patios, or wherever you feel like throwing your party.
#3 Changhong 49” 1080p LED HDTV – $389.99
Just because you have a projector doesn’t mean you can forget about your TV. As any true sports fan will tell you, a second display during the game will add tons of value. Use it to display stats, instant replay feeds, or even a movie for the people who don’t care about sports!
Changhong TV’s are among the best-selling displays at Newegg because they are loaded with great specs at an even better price. Featuring Full HD 1080p resolution, SRS TruSurround HD sound, and 3 HDMI outputs, it will be a welcome addition to any entertainment center.
#4 Onkyo 7.2 Channel Receiver – $299.99
After you have your displays set up, it’s time to connect them to your sound system. A multi-channel receiver is the best way to do this because it’s an all-in-one control center for all your devices. Stop fiddling with countless remotes and do it all from one place.
Onkyo’s 7.2 Channel Receiver has everything you need to create the perfect soundscape for the football game. And with six HDMI inputs, you’ll have more than enough ways to connect as many displays as you can handle. You can also use the built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to wirelessly stream music and keep the party going after the game.
#5 Klipsch Synergy Surround Sound Speakers – $129.99
You don’t need a lot of speakers to achieve great sound. All you need is the right speakers. Installing surround sound speakers to your receiver will not only create a dynamic listening environment; they will also turn any room into an immersive experience.
Klipsch makes some of the best speakers out there and a pair of the Synergy Series S-10’s will deliver great performance. And thanks to the careful positioning of two Tractrix Horn loaded aluminum-dome tweeters and one 4-inch IMG woofer, you’ll also get an aggressive sound you didn’t know was possible.
#6 Elite Roaster Oven – $48.99
No matter how great your audio/video setup is, no party is complete without food. But unless you want to spend time in the kitchen instead of in front of the TV, you’re going to need to find a solution that makes cooking easy. And the easiest solution of them all is a roaster oven.
The Elite ERO-210B Roaster Oven is exactly what you need for several reasons. It’s big enough to roast a 22lb turkey, durable enough for the outdoors, and makes it easy to serve your guests with a built-in buffet. Save time in the kitchen and enjoy the game with your friends!
