Home Cinema System- Better Picture and Superior Sound Quality

A Home cinema system lets you soak in the environment of a cinema hall and

enjoy cinematic moments to the hilt. This system lets you capture the real

emotions depicted in a movie through original sound reproduction and

enhanced display quality. However, these are costly to buy. Nonetheless, you

can design a home cinema system on your own with considerable less

investment. A big room is a prerequisite for designing such system. However, if

you do not have one then you can do a miniature one at your living room.

To design such a system you need a good display medium. It can be a plasma

television set or something big enough to give the impression of a cinema

screen. However, the size of the TV must be commensurate with the size of the

room. Your viewing distance depends on the size of the screen, but if the

viewing distance is limited by the size of the room there is no point in buying a

bigger television. So buying a television set of compatible size is the first step in

designing a home cinema system.

Locating the television set is no less arithmetic. For best viewing the wall

containing the set should not get any sunlight. So it should not be located

opposite a window. This will disturb your view to a great extent. Moreover, the

height of the upper contours of the screen should not be above your normal

cone of viewing. Any height above this may put pressure on the neck and lead

to neck pain.

Acoustics

Once the part of placing the television set is solved you have to arrange the

speakers and subwoofers for cinematic audio experience. Modern movies and

albums are all made in surround sound, and you can experience them in

cinema halls. You need to access the surround track to catch the cinematic

moment of each sequence in a home cinema system. You need a set of

channels to catch the surround track. You need three channels in front and

two channels towards the back of the room. The three in front will be placed at

center, left and right apiece while the two at the back will be placed on the side

walls towards the back. If you go for a 6.1 channel then another channel will

be added to the sidewalls on the back. However, going for full surround sound

at home may not always be possible if you do not have a big room. The complex

arithmetic of surround sound processors, amplifiers, and speakers can arrive

at the best results if you have a big room. In a small room solving this complex

arithmetic for best results can become tough.

Matching the sound system with the viewing medium

This is the most important aspect of a home cinema system, especially for a

not so big room. You can get the best output if you can match the sound to the

video display. For a flat television panel you can go for a compact satellite and

subwoofer system.
