A Home Theater system’s essence depends on the room in which its entire setting is placed. Buying a good Home Theater system is worthwhile only if it’s complimented with the correct setting. Setting up speakers & home theaters can be tedious, but then it can also be as simple as it can get.
The following steps walk you through the different stages required to setup Home Theater System.
- To create a powerful sound and image, choose the room accordingly. Determine the size of your room depending upon whether it can accommodate a projector. Projectors have different throw ranges, determined by the distance between the screen and the device. A projector generally has its throw ratio mentioned in the manual, or the same can be checked for online.
- Remember not to appoint the projector too close to the windows or doorways.
- Once the projector’s position is decided, you can now manage the other settings of the system. You might want to give it a raised platform to enable an elevated setting. Also, a raised platform can be a good hiding place for the sub woofers, in case you decide to use any.
- Speakers are probably the most important components of the entire home Theater system. The key positions would be left front, center, right front, left read, right rear and sub woofers. The center speaker should be placed directly above, or below the display, with the left front and right front speakers not far from it. Ideally, the speakers should be placed at the wall vertically, at ear level while sitting.
- It is recommended, for convenience and efficiency, to place all components in the same room.
- After the speakers have been adequately placed, it is time now to connect the audio/video cables to the speakers. Make sure that the terminal ends of the wires remain the same on the speaker side, and the receiver side (positive (+) with positive (+) and vice versa) If you’re not too confident with the electric connections, opt for professional assistance.
- With the technical work almost done with, you can use your creativity to furnish the room as you like. Use carpets instead of tiles/expensive flooring to get a better sound quality.
- Once this basic setting has been done, you can choose the best compatible modes on your TV, Satellite or Cable Box to get the best sound and picture quality.
