We are choosing a home theater system

Today, a home theater system is available to many. The choice of options here is large: from a well-matched stereo system with a TV to a full-format home theater system with a UHD video projector and a Dolby Atmos sound system. Let's try to choose.

The first option. Minimal system.

If your apartment is not big and you are not going to do reconstructions in it, but you have a good TV and you like to watch movies, you will really want quality sound, and at the same time, you don't want to collapse, getting stuck behind the horizontal speaker cables stretched for the side and rear speakers. But in this case there is a solution. We advise you not to look at the cheap "box" solutions that cover all home appliance stores. It is disappointing that such solutions are created for purely commercial purposes. Yes, you will "get" a DVD or even a Blu Ray player in the box. And also five or even seven speakers with a low-frequency column. This whole "wonderful" set will be "wrapped" in cheap plastic "clothing" and complete with budget speakers and maximally discounted electronics "stuffing". Trust our experience, you really don't need such a "system". Usually, such systems end their days quite sadly in their owner's apartment: all five or even seven "nests" are lined up next to the TV, low-frequency dust is behind the closet, and the owner does not experience the slightest pleasure after spending money. Want to get solid sound for less money and hassle-free? Choose a "Soundbar" or sound projector, as it is sometimes called by professionals. In this case, you will get the illusion of large-scale sound (admittedly, this illusion will be much better than a "box" cinema system). You won't have to think about how to stretch the wires for the effect speakers (there are simply no such speakers in this system), and if you want, you can choose a Soundbar with a wireless bass active speaker (which also won't cause any worries about wiring).

The soundbar can be mounted on the wall below the TV, and can also be placed on a cabinet or shelf. After choosing a soundbar with a low-frequency speaker, do not make the mistake of placing it in a closet niche next to the TV. Most often, the low frequency is placed in the corner of the room. Make sure there are no direct obstacles between the speaker and the subwoofer, then it will work at full 100 percent. And this means - it will reproduce a rich low frequency.

The second option. Classic cinema.

With this sleek name, we want to disguise systems that are usually called 5.1 or 7.1. (depending on the number of audio channels). Such systems use a minimum of 5 speakers (two front, one central, two effects and one low frequency).

The third option. Full format home theater system.

A full-size home cinema hall is a separate room in which, in accordance with all acoustic calculations, comprehensive acoustic preparation has been carried out, including qualified sound insulation of all surfaces, suitable furniture, lighting system, noiseless ventilation system, installed control system for the entire cinema hall.

Any home theater system project is the responsible work of a specialist. Starting with the creation of the room, its acoustic treatment, wiring, selection of components, alignment, setting of all parameters, etc. We are ready to help you find the right solutions.
