Which Speakers Are Right For Your Surround Sound System?

Friday, March 12th, 2010

If you’ve ever experienced a high-end home surround sound system, you know the difference it can make in a home theater. There are several parts that make up a surround sound system, but clearly the speakers are the most important since they’re the ones delivering the sounds to the room. Selecting quality speakers can really make a huge difference. This guide will discuss the different options of speakers available to choose from for your home theater.

Before getting to the speakers, you’ll need to determine how many speakers you’re going to set up in your theater. There are a few different options when it comes to choosing this, there’s a 5.1 surround sound system with is made up of five speakers and one subwoofer. The speakers are normally placed with two in the front, two in the rear and one in the center. The subwoofers location will vary. Then there’s a 7.1 system which consists of a set of seven speakers and a subwoofer. The difference here is that the 7.1 system has two speakers located on the side as well as the other locations. If you’re really into bass, then the 5.2 or 7.2 option is best for you. These two options are the same as above but come with two subwoofers.

Floor standing speakers are the most traditional style speakers and to this day still remain quite popular. They’re usually on the larger size and they’re able to produce a variety of frequencies, including the low tones. These speakers will provide more volume per watt of amp power. Even though they stand tall and can take up space, they’re usually more expensive than bookshelf speakers, since they’re the best at filling up a room with quality sound.

Bookshelf speakers are the smaller option, compared to floor standing speakers. If you’re in a tight space or don’t want to spend as much money, these speakers are a great alternative. I’ve seen some great bookshelf speakers, so by no mean are they poor (typically they don’t deliver sounds like floor speakers). They can conveniently be placed in small places or on shelves.

If you don’t like the large speakers in the room, there’s always the custom option of ceiling speakers or in-wall speakers. These speakers work the same way as other speakers, but they’re placed into the ceiling or wall after mounted in a frame. These speakers are usually full-range, but adding a subwoofer is always a good idea to compliment this system. I’ve even seen in-wall or ceiling subwoofers. Most in-wall or ceiling speakers come with grills that can be painted to match your walls and blend in. In order to install these speakers, the tough part is running the wires which are usually done behind the walls or ceilings.

The last type of speaker is the outdoor speaker. These speakers are weather-resistant and usually placed under an awning on a deck or patio for some sort of protection. They also make speakers that blend into the landscape, such as fake rocks. These work great by an outdoor pool and sound great, since they’re usually close to ear level. Be sure the outdoor speakers have more power than indoor speakers, since the sounds will need to travel in the larger open space.

Now that we’ve covered the speakers, don’t forget about the speaker wire. This is often ignored in many sound systems; however they do play a major role in the quality of sound delivered in your sound system. Old speaker wire or low quality speaker wire should be changed to get the best results. You’ll notice a major difference right off the bat.

I hope this guide has helped you understand the different options of speakers available. There are many different brands and styles of the speakers mentioned above, so be sure to shop around. Good luck!
