You have your TV and home theater receiver, you have just bought new speakers and subwoofer and are ready to test things. It 's time to break the meter for accuracy is critical to achieving the full potential of your home theater system. For this article we will focus on a system with 5.1 surround sound. The term "5.1" refers to the number of speakers and a subwoofer in the system, respectively. So for a 5.1 surround soundsystem has five speakers (center channel, two front speakers and two rear speakers) and a subwoofer.
When you place your home theater speakers, power cable trying to use the same amount of each type of speaker. For example, using the same length of wire for each of the front speakers. In this way the signal to reach each speaker in about the same time. I say "nearly" because there are variations in the wire can cause the signal to reachOne speaker slightly (fractions of a fraction of a second) for the second. The two lengths just to make sure that this delay is small and imperceptible.
Center channel
center channel should always be positioned above or directly below the screen. Make sure the speaker is directly targeted audience.
Front Speakers
The two front speakers should be equidistant from the public as the center channel. ToTo ensure that the sound will travel from each speaker to the public in the same amount of time and reduce the chances that a noticeable delay between what happens on screen when you heard. Each of the front speakers should be positioned at an equal distance from the TV side. This distance depends on your taste, just make sure the two distances are equal.
Rear Speakers
The rear speakers should be mounted on wallsboth sides of the public. Their goal is the atmosphere gives a feeling, no system provides the greatest sound for your home theater. They can not speak directly to the ears of the public, or you risk more than feed the central channel and the two front speakers. Again, distance is important. Try the rear speakers the same distance from the TV in the same amount of power cable to be used and, if possible, are equidistant fromthe public.
Subwoofer
Below shows, by their nature are difficult to locate the midrange and treble that of the other five speakers. It gives you more freedom than the place where the subwoofer. But the space around the subwoofer has an important influence on the bass sounds you hear. Placing the subwoofer in a corner or under a desk, a deep and resonant sound to create sound waves reflected surfaces. Placing the subwoofer is up to youdepending on the kind of bass you want. Experiment with different positions and find one that suits your tastes.
To realize the full potential of your home theater speakers is not a difficult task. By following these guidelines, you are ready to enjoy your home theater the way it was meant to be heard.
