The Ideal Hd TV Surround Sound Set Up
Get the best out of your home theatre. High Definition TV brings you Dolby Digital™ 5.1 surround sound. 5.1 means five speakers and one subwoofer to envelope you in sound.
Two front speakers and two rear speakers put you in the centre of the action. A fifth, centre-channel speaker is positioned above or below your TV. The subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room, and delivers the low-frequency bass effects to complete the big cinema sound experience.
A surround sound system is usually completed with a “receiver” box that controls the sound for all the speakers.
To maximise your HD Television set-up choose the right audio cables to connect surround sound to your HD TV. Connections do matter.
Some cabling of the options for setting up your HD TV Surround Sound are;
*HDMI cable – The simplest and best way to connect your HD TV to surround sound, HDMI cables carry crisp, clear audio and video signals in a single cable.
