Very thorough review(s), instruction and purchase links to Amazon. Well done.
Clear instructions and recommendations; logical explanation for build strategy/strategies.
I built the Value HTPC a year ago. I ordered the parts as listed from Amazon and my computer is everything you said it would be.
While there are many sites dedicated to HTPCs, yours oftwas the one that was most helpful. I am very much looking forward to your software guide!
You give me a simple, step by step of what to get, how it gets put together and why it works.
I built my first HTPC about 5 years ago, and it took a lot of research to understand all of the issues involved to make it work smoothly. My Media Experience brings this information together in one place, and keeps it up to date, which is a huge benefit.
I never had built a PC on my own and this was the first time. Everything works and I am very happy with the build.
Great and extremely comprehensive resource for building HTPCs that you can enjoy without any hassle in the future. Despite I like to think that I already know a lot of the HTPC scene, I’m always amazed by your materials, as I always find something that I haven’t thought of yet. Keep up the good work with the redesign of the blog.
I have built my machine based on recommendations from your site a few years ago. It is as robust as the day I put it into service. I do retain all of your posts and guides though just to stay informed. We’ve spoken before and I look forward to more of the same in the future.
Very well written, easy to follow. Only waiting for a couple unreleased pages…
Simple but detailed , clear, efficient information, thank you.
I followed your bluprint for your 2015 budget htpc which was my first pc build and your website to learn general knowledge about building computers. I recommend your instructionals for anyone interested in home theater computing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge about the future home entertainment.
I guess the best I can say is that you appear honest. You really know you HTPC stuff and I am sure a lot more! But Best of all you have patience for us newbies, and dummies like me can really learn from you.
I really appreciate the time and effot that is put into all the emails and tutorials.
Best suggestions for media built.
The site has great advise for htpc. It helped me with building mine.
Very informative, you did all the leg work.
Simple, easy to understand. Like the staged emails.
You have compiled the best resources to get a media center started.
I like the way you explain thing & keep it simple. Keep up the good work….
Simple and concise instructions and explanations.
Off course all these gathered informations about HTPC.
It is a very good place to start your HTPC! The builds are very usfull and the software recomdations are ooutstanding.
You provide information that I couldn’t seem to find anywhere else.
Very good tips and knowledge of the argument.
Thanks Tuukka for the constant updates on media world. I like your articles because your aim is to create a media centre dedicated for that work and it is far more better compared to DVD players and current internet ready TVs as this device is easily and readily upgradable to meet personal preferences. I have noticed that separate PC boards don’t nowadays come and whatever is there in the market is ready made stuff which can be a bit tricky to play around with especially for beginners like me. I appreciate your work.
Blueprint is a great resource for the different pieces of the HTPC puzzle. It’s nice to be able to focus on a singular topic like configuring KODI which is not intuitive to me.
Very useful experiences you kindly sharing with the community.
Great step by step instructions for all skill levels and budgets.
I must say for an excellent, I mean REALLY excellent course. I’ve been reading about building a HTPC for sometime now and it seem though every article was out of date. You, however were right on target, so now the order is placed and it is just a matter of time until the build starts.
Just wanted to firstly say thank you for such a brilliant and informative website. I really do get just a bit excited when ever I get a new email from you guys with new content. I have built a few HTPC’s now using your guide for family and friends.
Thank you for helping me setup my HTPC, your guides and recommendations have provided me with the most awesome HTPC and I am now building a couple for friends and family. This is by far the easiest and non super tech friendly guide.
I just wanted to say I really love your detailed articles. I had read your HTPC setup before and even emailed you with my setup and you replied back nicely. I didn’t even realize you had an article on NAS systems, until I got your update email. So cool to read about that as well!
Thanks for your continued work in this space. A while back I assembled the build you are now referencing as the budget option. It works great.
