Buying an surround system but also want to use it for music will it have good music sound?

admin — Mon, 31 May 2010 21:06:49 +0000

I am planning on buying a surround system, but I listen too music as well and I don’t want garbage music sound because I have a surround system…
Are there any home theater systems that also have proper quality audio for music? Could those home theater systems have the option for Dolby True HD/ PCM sound?
If, which brands offer these qualities?
I was thinking maybe JBL offers that?

Thanks
My budget is 300-400 euro’s exl. cables
Third responder, well then which receiver/ speakers would you suggest?

Paradigm makes some great stuff. Their Cinema series, while fine with movies, did not impress me when it came to music. Their Monitor series is jaw dropping with music & movies. Dolby TrueHD is a marketing gimmick, and is not needed. Depending on your budget, there are numerous options to drive a system, starting with receivers, and ending with seperates. A starting model is a Denon AVR-1610 ($400), and a high-end setup is a Parasound NewClassic setup (Parasound Model 7100, and Parasound Model 5125 for $5000). Everything depends on the budget. For about $1300 you can get the Denon mentioned previously and

What is the purpose of a subwoofer in a home surround system?

admin — Wed, 26 May 2010 15:54:34 +0000

Will a home surround system be "OK" without a subwoofer?

Or is it an important component?

Subwoofers are designed to carry the lowest frequencies – like all the rumbling you hear in the movie theater. The biggest reason to have a subwoofer is due to most home theater surround sound systems not having large speakers for the rest of the channels. In fact a lot of them have very small speakers for everything else. So in essence you have midrange and tweeters for all the other 5 channels and the subwoofer used to carry the bass sounds. If your two main speakers (left and right front channels) are large – 10 inch woofers or larger then I would say a subwoofer is not an absolute necessity. However if your two main speakers are of the 4 – 5 inch variety then a subwoofer would make things sound much better.

After saying all that I must add that if you are OK with the sound without a subwoofer then that is all that really matters, so the decision is all up to you and your ears.

How do i get my surround system to work with my tv?

admin — Sun, 23 May 2010 08:21:30 +0000

I just bought a surround sound system. It works great for dvds, but the sound from my tv doesnt come through it. My tv is fairly new, but only has a white and yellow input on front, no jacks on the back, only the place the cable goes in. I bought a switch but cant figure out how to hook it all up together? please help.

Unfortunately, you can’t make the TV work with surround sound directly, because you have no audio out on the TV. Also ,I am assuming that your TV is not stereo sound. That won’t work. One of my TVs is the same way also. You can only use it as a picture monitor and tap the sound from your VCR ,if you have one, to the surround amp. It won’t be Dolby Digital sound since that is only available from digital sound sources, but you will get the older stereo compatible Dolby Pro-logic surround sound (or pro-logic 2) if your surround system is recent. You mentioned that you bought a switch. You may not need it if you already have a VCR. If your surround system has video input and outputs (as most do now) connect the VCR to the surround systems a/v input (red=right channel,white=left channel. Don’t bother using the yellow video input in this situation. Connect your antennae or cable TV connection to the VCR’s matching input if you haven’t done so yet. Run an antennae /cable connection from the VCR out to the TV’s antennae/cable in. Switch your TV to channel 3 or 4 depending on which channel the VCR is set to transmit to. Set the VCR/TV switch to VCR. Stick in a tape and see if the tape plays through the TV. If so, the TV tuner ON THE VCR should also play to the TV when the tape is stopped and/or removed. That should take care of the video. The sound from the VCR should also be coming out of your surround sound amp when you have that source switch on. I know this sounds a little complex and you may have to experiment a little bit further if this doesn’t work initially. But what I suggested doing is the very thing that I had to do on a few systems in my house. Good luck. I hope that I and any others who answer were helpful.

What i need and how to connect my xbox 360 to my surround sound system?

admin — Thu, 20 May 2010 04:27:43 +0000

i have a xbox 360 from the premium set with no extra accessories, basically standard from the launch day. i also have a surround sound system but im not sure how to connect the 2. all my surround system has on the back are 6 audio input holes, 1 for each speaker ( front r, front l, center, woofer, rear l and rear r). i am also planning on getting a projector soon.is it possible to connect the surround sound system to my 360 and if so, what equipment would i need. and also will a projector complicate these connections any more? thanks

If your surround system only has 6 inputs and they are all for the speakers, then something is either missing or it does not allow any external source to be connected. Does it have a DVD player and radio tuner built in? If not, then there must be some more inputs for external sources somewhere. Check the back of the subwoofer as sometimes these type of systems locate the inputs there.

Once you find the inputs on your current system or once you purchase a new system, you will use the stereo audio cables (red, white) to connect to the new system. However, the only way to get true surround sound is to use a digital optical audio cable for audio. So if you are purchasing a new one, make sure it has an optical audio input. After making the connections, you must enable dolby digital audio in the xbox 360 system setup.

As for the projector, it won’t complicate anything with the surround system other than speaker placement. It will however, complicate video configuration for best viewing.

How do you reset a Home Theater surround system back to the original factory setting?

admin — Sun, 16 May 2010 10:19:17 +0000

My home theater surround system doe’s not sound the way it used to.

Not all components have a reset. Read the manual carefully. If there is a procedure to "reset to factory defaults" it will be in there. Otherwise go through the system and set everything to zero and work your way back up from there till it sounds the way you like. Without knowing exactly what system you have it will be hard to give you a more definitive answer.
