How do I know what size unit to buy for my home theater?

Add up the wattage you need to run your AV system and then make sure the system you buy can handle that wattage plus 30% of that total. Say your system needed 750 watts to run; then that means you would want a system that could handle 1000 watts. The same rule is used for sizing generator output needed. You never want to load a genset or battery backup more than 70% of it's max output or capacity.

No clue. I just bought this unit so that if we have a momentary power outage my DirectTV Reciever does not have to reboot, which can take 15 minutes. I have my TV and Stereo unit hooked up to this one, and it gives me almost an hour of backup time.

Depends on what ohm and watt your speakers are. But normally I run a 14 or 12 gauge.should be more than enough for your home theatre. Unless ur putting out more power

Not sure but the male plug or "jack" fits all of the iPods in the house (3, 4, and 5) and works great. If your home theater system has same type of plug, you will be good to go.

If you are talking about the physical size of the speaker, it matters not (though matching speakers - size, model, manufacturer - are probably going to give an overall better sound/listening experience.MCACC does not consider anything except the placement of the speakers, which should at least approximate the standards of 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 etc. Please check out this web page on the subject (actually, the entire website is incredibly helpful!): http://www.audioholics.com/home-theater-connection/home-theater-speaker-layout-an-essential-guide

I have my cable box, my Blu-Ray player and a connection box so I don't have to unplug the disc player and connect the cable on the bottom shelf under the TV. The dimensions are 15" wide, 7 3/4" high and 31" long. This will give you an idea of how much room you have.

There are sizes that come with this that do not fit my unit, so maybe one will fit yours.

My main unit is 12"Deep x 11" High x 7" Wide. The speakers are 4" D x 6" H x 4" W. My son and I both have this system and it's GREAT! I mostly use it for TV and DVDs, he uses it for that plus game systems. There must be 2 similar units because the one I bought is smaller than hueytaxi's. Yes, don't expect high end electronics for $80, but there is nothing that can touch this system for the cost. I can't begin to imagine how anyone could feel it isn't worth the money. It's 1000 times better than sound bars or similar items. I'm VERY picky about sound quality and this one does a great job. My main unit is 12"Deep x 11" High x 7" Wide.

If you are shipping or bringing it overseas, to keep it from being damaged and in the original box it is fairly large. A little longer than the sound bar and as wide as the sub. Check the specs to get a better idea. Good Luck

The size should be on the website ,under spec tab. I don't have the unit here as it was a gift. It's not a big one ,but isn't a tiny one either.

Please contact the manufacturer for the exact specifications you think you need. Thank you.

Sorry. I don't own it any more. It worked well for my purposes in my old house but not at my current place. Standard dimensions from what I remember and it's not that heavy for a receiver.

Subwoofer = 7-3/32 x 16-1/16 x 11-13/16 inches - this info was pulled directly from the Panasonic website, where it has a page specifically for this theater system with a tab "tech specifications" that includes the dimensions and weight of each speaker. The dimensions given = wxhxd - Panasonic doesn't mention that even though height is generally the last measurement given, not the second.

For me the important factor was size. I measured the dimensions of my old unit and the one that would fit my existing space was the 1/2 HP unit:Waste King L-2600 Legend Series 1/2 HP Continuous Feed Operation Garbage Disposal

Yes that should be big enough. But it would be smarter to wire it to your stereo power wire and remote because there is less chance for short circuits
