If you indubitably want to feel the excitement of watching a movie in your own home, then you have to get a surround sound system.
You may already have the big screen in your room, but if you are not able to hear the soundtrack at its best, then you're missing out on half the fun!
Hdmi Tv
However, many people feel that installing a surround sound ideas is too difficult - and that it's too complicated for them to hook up.
Well, it's not that difficult - supervene these points to understand what you need to get your own surround sound set up.
1. Settle on the surround sound configuration you want.
Most modern Dvds come with a 5.1 surround soundtrack - so a 5.1 speaker setup is the most base speaker ideas that people have. This ideas has six speakers - a center speaker, front left and right, surround left and right and a subwoofer (for the bass). However, other base configrations are 7.1 and 7.2 surround sound speaker systems.
2. Buy an Av receiver/amplifier and speaker holder - or a home theater in-a-box system.
The Av receiver is the amplifier for your speakers - and the processor for the 5.1 surround soundtrack. You will have to buy a isolate 5.1 speaker holder to associate to the surround sound receiver - and probably the speaker cable too. The main benefit of an Av receiver is that you can associate many separate external devices to it - such as Dvd players, Blu-ray players, cable Tv boxes, Dvd recorders etc.
A home theater in-a-box ideas (HtiB) will come with the amplifier, speakers and all the cabling in one holder - and will often have a built-in Dvd/Blu-ray player too. However, there is often little scope for connecting other devices to this type of system.
3. associate the ideas together.
Connect the speakers to the speaker outputs on the Av receiver using the speaker cables. Make sure you associate the center speaker to the center speaker output, the front left speaker to the front left speaker output etc.
Connect the Hdmi output of your Dvd player to the first Hdmi input on the receiver. This will send the Dvd photo and the sound to the receiver.
Connect the Hdmi output port on the Av receiver to the first (maybe only) Hdmi connection on your Tv. The Av receiver will use this to send the photo to the Tv screen.
Run the automated speaker setup for the Av receiver (most have this). This will send a test signal colse to your speakers and set a good balance.
4. Play the movie!
5. How it all works
When you press play on the Dvd player, the video and audio signals are sent to the Av receiver down the Hdmi cable - make sure you make your mind up the strict input on the Av receiver and it will receive the signal.
The Av receiver then sends the photo to the Tv - make sure you make your mind up the strict input on the Tv (the Tv may switch to the strict input when it gets the signal).
The Av receiver also sends the audio to the speakers. It should automatically receive the 5.1 mix on the Dvd and send it out to the speaker ideas in surround sound.
