Top Audio Review Tips!

By Anne Ahira

So you've acquired the elegant LCD or plasma TV, probably even mounted it on the wall. You've invested in an upscaling DVD player or perhaps even progressed and put your bets on the success of Sony's Blu-Ray technology.

Audio Review: Speaker Configurations

If you've never acquired speakers in advance or if you're just not sure how many speakers are needed, you'll be more baffled when you go to the shop, go into the speaker zone, and find a wide choice of design selections.

The home theater package I purchased a couple of years ago came with seven speakers. By means of your basic two speaker set-up, you will can find real stereo sound. The 3-speaker set-up is a bit better for music since it includes a subwoofer which may deliver more bass which is vital for rock, rap, metal, and another kinds of non-adult contemporary music.

Nowadays when you're interested in obtaining a home theater experience, this audio review recommends investing in a 5.1 package. The name is a tad misleading because you're truly obtaining 6 speakers. The set includes a subwoofer, two front speakers, two rear speakers ( thus the planes or dinosaurs or monsters sound like they're coming from all around you), and a center channel.

A newer design is named the 6.1 package. Once more, the label is deceptive because you truly get 7 speakers. You obtain all that comes in the 5.1 set, and also a rear center speaker. This audio review must also mention 7.1 sets, like the one from Onkyo, which comprise four rear speakers and no rear channel speaker.

Audio Review Recommendations

Which speaker design is the most excellent selection? Anyhow, if you're only listening to music, the two speaker or three speaker design will possibly be passable. If you want an impressive set-up, consider obtaining floor standing speakers that usually come with larger woofers than bookshelf models.

The cost is normally higher, as well. At Amazon, for example, JBL speakers cost $300 each. Add another $300 if you want to add the JBL subwoofer for a three speaker configuration.

Price wise, nonetheless, the best alternative from this audio review is a complete home theater system which comes with a compatible receiver. Detached receivers are difficult to obtain and very dear. One of my favorite sets is the Samsung 5.1 home theater system. This includes a 5 CD changer, the receiver, front standing speakers, rear satellite speakers, and built-in iPod cradle (something that commonly costs extra with most of the systems). - 18758
