 Sound And Vision Magazine - Resource Center: Speakers
For even beefier bass, consider a power tower, which usually looks like a regular floorstanding speaker and connects to your receiver or amplifier in the same way.
Some power towers even allow you to connect a line-level signal from a receiver or surround processor’s subwoofer output to their bass sections, which means that the receiver or processor handles the low-frequency crossover.
When plasma TV hit it big, many of the affluent early adopters wanted better speakers than the cheesy little ones supplied with the sets, yet most of them were unwilling to install floorstanding towers or bookshelf speakers.

 The Tower Card XVI of the Tarot (c)1997 by Michael Star
Perhaps they built themselves a tall tower to get away from the hard truths on that rocky ground, and then found themselves so far from the truth they were escaping that they got stuck in their safe place.
When you draw The Tower card in the reversed position (upside down), it indicates that something still has to go - but either you are not even aware of it, are consciously choosing not to be aware of it (in denial), or are aware of it and are choosing to resist letting go of it.
The High Priestess symbolizes "Intuition", the "feeling" or "sensing" kind of insights; while The Tower symbolizes the kind of insight which comes from a paradigm shift - where the old way of thinking or old beliefs are thrown out (destroyed), and new ones are created to take their place.

 13WHAM-TV || Rochester - What is HDTV   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Most televisions today are manufactured in a 4 by 3 aspect ratio, which means the screen is 4 units wide by 3 units high.
But theatrically released movies are usually in a much wider aspect, taking advantage of the human field of vision (which is wider across horizontally).
This requires the use, in most cases, of an outdoor antenna pointed in the direction of the broadcaster's tower.

Digital TV (such as the EPB’s Power Digital Package) delivers a picture that is clear and sharp, without the many reception problems associated with regular analog TV.
In High-Definition TV, the picture displayed on your TV is digitally transmitted, but it must also meet certain standards in order for it to be "true HDTV." A High-Definition TV displays pictures that contain significantly more detail, resulting in much sharper pictures.
Images viewed on TV screens are made up of small picture elements known as "pixels." Each of these pixels is made up of three, closely spaced dots of color - red, blue and green.
