Learn About Virtual Surround Sound Systems
These days, home theaters are making an appearance into more and more homes. What most people love about home theaters is the fact that in one area they can enjoy their movies and television shows as well as jam to their tunes on their stereo. Most people who are seeking to buy home theater components look to purchase the biggest speakers they can find in order to reproduce the enveloping wall of sound that accompanies it. However, with the larger size comes the larger price and that tends to be the first limiting factor in the quest to purchase home theater components. However, virtual surround sound systems are here to the rescue!
One big consideration you will need to address is the size of the room which you are planning to place the home theater in. An extremely large television or speaker system will not allow much room for your guests to sit comfortably in a small room. For this reason, you will want to scale down your speakers if you are going to place the home theater system in a small room.
You are in luck if you have a small space that you wish to use. Many speakers today have taken advantageof miniaturization and wireless technologies in order to produce small, wireless speakers.
Still another technology that has made its way to the marketplace is virtual surround sound which mimics the sound you can get from traditional surround sound systems. Virtual surround sound can be found in either the 2.1 surround system or digital sound projection system varieties.
Traditional surround sound systems are typically displayed using 5 speakers. These speakers start with a center speaker which is placed directly in front of the audience. The other 4 speakers are then arranged in a circle that literally surrounds the audience. These traditional surround speakersd are usually denoted as 5.1 and 7.1 sound systems. With virtual surround sound, at least 2 of the speakers are replaced. Digital sound projectors utilize small speakers that are placed in a line in front of the audience. The 2.1 system places only 2 speakers in front of the audience with a third, the subwoofer, placed elsewhere in the room.
The virtual surround system is designed to take advantage of our knowledge of how humans process auditory stimuli. When the human ear is processing the sound waves internally, these new systems fool the auditory process into thinking that more speakers are in use than actually are.
Virtual surround sound systems are a boon to those people who live in large metropolitan cities worldwide. With the smaller apartments that are offered to live, up until now you couldn't enjoy surround sound. Now that virtual surround systems are here, the surburbanites aren't the only ones who can enjoy it. - 23806
