I will be the case that you have a surround sound or receiver for the home theater and start from there. There are 3 important settings home theater speaker calls, you will notice, 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 and surround sound. It also mentions the words Dolby Digital, DTS and Dolby Pro Logic. Let’s waiver of this first: your recipient only Pro Logic (only at the age of receptors at the time), you must not worry, 6.1 or 7.1 surround. There are some other formats like Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro-Logic IIx, Dolby TrueHD, DTS Neo: 6.1, DTS-ES, True surround XT, and without doubt even more.

The two factors are the following:

1st How many channels on your system does not allow,

2nd If you want to buy that many speakers?

All recipients of the assistance, the more than 5.1-channel is also working with a fine 5.1-configuration. Obviously, 7.1 better than 5.1 surround sound, but at the expense of the other two speakers. If you have a limited budget, you have to decide whether to buy 5.1 speakers better, cheaper or for the speakers for the 7.1-channel. And this is the .1 channel home theater-Sub Woofer. The sub-woofer is, in my opinion, really necessary for home cinema. A system to function without it, but I will not be recommended for home cinema. The center channel is also very important for the home cinema, the anchor in his screen. If you find our site on the link at the end of this article, you can see the images for the following descriptions. They are recommended to the facility as a function of Dolby Labs.

5.1 surround system:

A). Speaker central focus of the video source

B). Sub-Woofer (s) in the bow with the main stakeholders, L & R between the speakers and video sources

C). L & R forehead at an angle of 22-30 degrees to the position on an arc between the center channel and the same year

D). L & R surround and 90-110 on the same level of seating position

6.1 surround system:

A). Speaker central focus of the video source

B). Sub-Woofer (s) in the bow with the main stakeholders, L & R between the speakers and video sources

C). L & R forehead at an angle of 22-30 degrees to the position on an arc between the center channel and the same year

D). L & R surround and 90-110 on the same level of seating position

E). Rear middle of 180 degrees (behind), the seating position

7.1 surround system:

A). Speaker central focus of the video source

B). Sub-Woofer (s) in the bow with the main stakeholders, L & R between the speakers and video sources

C). L & R forehead at an angle of 22-30 degrees to the position on an arc between the center channel and the same year

D). L & R surround and 90-110 on the same level of seating position

E). L & R and back to a point equal to 135-150 degrees from the listening position.

Sub-Woofer Setup

Your Sub-Woofer, a switch for Dolby Digital / Pro Logic. If you have a receiver with Dolby Digital capable set the value to that, even if the Pro Logic. This also applies if you have several of your contributions under. If your entry is marked FHG, it is the equivalent of a Dolby Digital input. They want to use the style of the RCA plug (or stopper), when the sub-woofer in a surround system.

If you post spokesman authentic inputs, they are almost always for the use of the sub-woofer in the non-installation of speakers surround sound. Sub-Woofer preset the level of control in about half way before the test of sound on sound receiver knows calibrate spokesman levels. You must start the testing and the level of your surround speakers, so the system works.

Do not worry on the frequency of control over to the Dolby Digital or better systems. For Pro Logic positioned at the point where the bass speaker major decrease, which looks necessary, the documentation of your speakers.

If you are not at your in a surround system allows you to benefit, use the loudspeaker to entries on the back of your under. The advantage, if you are the small speakers. The receiver left and right channels are connected directly to the under-boomer, and the speaker left and the right connection to the speaker connectors on the Sub-Woofer. That this is not possible, under the low, to less than the keynote speaker can not, of course, the other types of connections would also. The advantage here is the fact that the sub-woofer in this way, the bass-filter on the signal to your main speakers ever try to create the bass they can not process. The result is a clear, clean and healthy capacity, volume main speaker.

Sub-Woofer is usually the investment, as for other speakers. It is true that the bass is omnidirectional, so you should be in a position to a sub-woofer, no matter where, as usual, but it depends on your situation. I play loud music, and can detect when the sub-woofer is located near the vibrations felt. I find it very entertaining to the low seem from the front side of the room, but the vibrations of the bass from a different direction. I prefer, therefore, always a sub-woofer on the front of the room.

How to get the most out of your speakers (Quam your sound quality without money)

The first test with a new speaker system is the placement, and the second is the cabling, which deserve consideration. We are first son with a few platitudes, which affects all types of players. The plant is located in the framework of the main speakers only.

Cable Speaker

First and foremost, the leadership election can be very important. If your speakers are designed for installation in the wall, you need the speaker cable rated cl3 or equivalent. If the speakers in the open, you have to try the so-called direct the burial cable or similar. Then, when you think about the sound quality of the entire, 22-gauge cord is not recommended. It can be used to very short sentences, and is weak to hide, but because of the resistance that you sacrifice sound quality. I would recommend that leadership caliber 16 for the most slopes, unless you want the best from your speakers, in this case, using the size of 12 or more. For a long term, I would recommend that the more than 16 gauge. (We have a cable removed from the article and the graphics on our website the link below.), I use a good-quality audio on size 12 cable itself, but you have to pay more for this great cable. The benefits are a better momentum, and the amplifier can better control your speakers because of the low resistance of the line. As always, and the price for your speaker cables. Do not prefer cheap speaker cable, and vice versa. BTW, not to try them in romex (House cable), instead of an audio cable from acceptable quality. Really, it is not enough to say. If so many reasons.

One question is whether fancy cable allows no difference. I must say that many people both in the issue of snake oil. Personally, I think I can understand that some differences depending on the quality of the partner. In other words, any hearable differences in the cable is sensitive in a system with more resolution. Consider also that most listeners sold no cables to hear the claim difference. Consideration of all tests, double-blind study with care. Normally, I can cover holes in the logic that the majority of these tests, and stress factors not taken into account. One example is a test amplifier (by a large audio magazine), which corresponded to the level amps, is an attempt to double-blind and says ampere schellte identical, so that everyone, they recommend buying stock amp.

This puts the shoe: After their specific conditions, not under normal conditions for listening, amps rang the same. Check this idea at the table: the cheapest Ampère had less power than the other, which, under normal conditions, and of listening, high, the rock and ineffective or difficult to drive speakers had pooped out, level of satisfaction to hear speak without clipping paths and Faussant longer at the helm of the amplifier. One problem with the double-blind tests, to be precise, they have every element in the universe that influence the results, even unknown. The other is to compare everything to equal treatment, they voluntarily reduce or cancel the differences, then triumphantly declare that they are all equal. The sample is completely on the level, which is a volume that stress is not more easily stressed amp.

Polarity or phasing speaker is very important. This means that the thread we find a band to write, or on one side, and the connection of the lines or on the ‘+ (red), or - (black) amplifier and above - speakers. It is irrelevant that the band on the line connects to a greater or less than that is the same at both ends, and all speakers. I have more and more the connection to the road, just consistent. If you have this kind of problem, you lose almost all your basses, and the voice is slipping, while they should be concentrated.

Home Loudspeakers

Particularly suitable for the mediation will be better depends on the type of speaker that you have, but we can give you some good General. Obviously, for a surround system, you have certain limitations. The center channel has over or under your center of television, (or perhaps centered behind a screen) and the left and right before necessity, to the left and right. So now for the rest of the speakers. It should be added that the surround sound for the system is the ideal 3-speaker before an equal distance between the listener. This fact makes the front of the speakers on an arc. It is generally good, the rear surrounds a little higher than the height of the ears, so that all listeners to have a greater opportunity to hear all the speakers. Aside, the details will surround sound, here is how to improve your system for free.

First, do no other speakers, and if it is placed in a cabinet make sure that the face of the speaker, even with the front of the box. You should also bear in mind that some of the speakers, as worn backwards to make many very bad in the cabinets. Make sure that the speaker, who is from the front, back, side or elsewhere, not blocked. This applies to the sub-woofer too. The stability is also important to your speakers must remain stable loud. If they move at high drum beats, the system will abgestreift momentum and the consequences. If the speakers, make sure they are stable enough to the size of the speakers that you did. A little help is the use of certain blu-or bring mortite putty between speaker and the state to improve the stability and clutch add. Spikes on the bottom of the stands work well for the rooms wallpapered.

Then you see the sound of your speakers. Many speakers have it good, if rational, directly to the audience, and is located at the height of the ears. That is not always the case. If the acute and the voices sound a little too strong, then the rational actors to be better straight out in the place of the listener. Listen bass. Is it boomy, or absent? If your speakers a little boomy sound, as in the run, the answer to the low probably can be improved by using your next speaker, or a corner of a wall. If your speakers are too deep in the light, they can seem better approximation to a wall. Do you remember not to block all ports in the low season. If the speaker behind it needs a little space in the wall and mine clearance on the sides of the speaker is right. A small tip you try some speakers sound better with the grid speakers off. Try this and see if it rationally better. In many cases, there are no significant differences, but it costs nothing to try.

More questions: If the speakers are properly graded, as described above, but the votes are not locked up in a strong position, you can have the speakers too far away. This applies in general to a stereo, not surround sound. When he’s not on a surround system, the Sub-Woofer crossing must be adapted to deal with the withdrawal in the off-season your main speakers. You can use these in your documentation, usually in the order of magnitude of-3db. If after all this, your speakers do not seem to realize, as it should be, it is necessary to examine whether the associated amplifiers, based on the amount of their leadership. Here, there are more questions than you, especially the impedance. An amplifier with high performance, which can lead to 8 ohm speakers, and too little on 4 ohm speakers, if the amplifier is not for “high-voltage” or listed in 4 ohm speakers. In addition, many amplifiers (or receivers, home theater amplifiers, etc.) Manufacturers use different methods to exaggerate the power in watts on the quotas of its amplifiers. The actual opinion on Wikipedia, the RMS opinion, and should be evaluated by an impedance (4 ohm, 8 ohms), etc., and to a distortion of opinion.
