Wireless Surround Sound Systems
A wireless surround sound system is usually an audio/visual system such as a HDTV
coupled with a DVD or Blu-Ray player and speakers that are connected to the system
wirelessly. The great advantage of a wireless surround sound system is that as soon
as you get it home, it can be up and running within minutes. You will have no awkward
wires to work out where they go and no unsightly cabling to route around your room.
A wireless sound system gives to the freedom of remote connectivity and the opportunity
to position your speakers wherever in your room you would like them, If you change
your mind, or want a move around – no problem, just reposition the speakers wherever
you like. By experimenting and moving the speakers around you will quickly find
the optimum position to recreate a fantastic “cinematic experience” at home with
your high quality audio surround sound wireless speaker system.
So what actually is surround sound? For enhanced, high quality realism in sound
then surround sound is the first choice of home theater enthusiasts. Even cheaper,
lower end A/V receivers will have Dolby Digital and DTS decoding audio capabilities.
Some entry level receivers even offer Dolby Pro Logic II which actually converts
2 channel stereo into pretty impressive 5.1 channel audio. This format will bring
movie soundtracks to life featuring rich audio, deep bass together with realistic
sounding special effects. The next generation of high quality audio advances to
the next level with Dolby Pro Logic IIx. This creates 7.1 channel audio from stereo
source. DTS or Digital Surround is a rival to Dolby Pro Logic and offers similar
capabilities and performance. In factm some hi-fi buffs prefer DTS so it is worth
a consideration when shopping around for a surround system.
Wireless speakers provide the audio in which we hear so need to have appropriate
placement within your room. Usually the rear speakers are wireless as the front
ones are next to your TV anyway so are easily connected. Some rear speakers may
have to be connected to a receiver amplifier in order to drive sound through them
so they will inevitably need AC power but are still more convenient than running
messy cabling around your room. If you already have wired speakers there are conversion
kits available to make any pair of speakers wireless.
Make wireless speakers a strong consideration when you choose the components to
your home theater system as they provide the flexibility, freedom and convenience
of being able to position your speakers wherever in the room you want. After purchasing
a wireless surround sound system you will be up and running within a few minutes
to enjoy a truly enhanced surround sound experience.
