Bring Ultra-Realistic Surround Sound to Your Home Theater Experience

When people envision their home theater, many see the larger-than-life images on the wall-sized screen. And while this is certainly a critical component, think back to the last time you were at a commercial cinema. Can you feel the rumbling explosions and the depth of the emotions unfolding on the screen? In many ways, it's the sound that transcends the senses and leaves you in another place in time. 

To accomplish this suspension of disbelief, where your mind believes what's happening on the big screen, your theater needs a multi-dimensional sound field. And that requires strategically installed high-fidelity home theater speakers

Let's explore some of the best speakers and set up for the ultimate surround sound experience that takes you to the scene unfolding in your Thousand Oaks, CA, home theater.

Accurate Reproduction

Just as the goal of high-fidelity speakers is to faithfully reproduce the original performance, so it is in home theaters. The right speakers, properly configured, relay the soundtrack's full dynamic range, from the subtlest whispers to the dramatic music swells.

In addition to the quality of speakers, there are two more critical elements in today's home theater surround sound: the subwoofers and the height effects channels. The subwoofer delivers the deep, impactful bass you can feel and hear. 

Today, standard home theater sound systems are set up for Dolby Atmos-enabled content. This includes at least two in-ceiling speakers or upward-firing units.

Why Dolby Atmos? It is, essentially, the most realistic sound you'll ever hear, at least until the next technological marvel comes along. Technicians treat sound as an object, placing it in a 3D sphere. You hear it as a sound that envelopes you, coming around and above you. Footsteps walk up the stairs. The helicopter hovers overhead. Someone whispers behind you.

Setting Up a Surround Sound System

The sensation of sound coming from all around you is the benchmark for a convincing audio experience. A multi-channel home theater system, such as a 5.1.2 or 7.1.4, provides this level of immersion. 

A full Dolby Atmos system, the 7.1.4, consists of a left and right channel main speaker, a center channel speaker, left and right rear speakers, and two surround speakers. It also possesses one subwoofer and four in-ceiling speakers. Another common setup for larger home theaters is the 9.1.2 surround sound system that includes nine ear-level speakers, two ceiling speakers, and one subwoofer. 

The seating arrangement, to a large degree, determines the speaker placement. Mounting height and position will all affect the sound. Finally, your speakers need proper calibration for optimal audio performance.
