In a usual home theater setup, there should to be six home theater speakers: two front speakers, two surround speakers, a center speaker and a subwoofer for the lowest frequency ranges. There are two ways to get all these speakers: buying each of them separately or buying a home theater speaker set.

Home Theater Speaker Sets

If you are low on budget, you should think of one of these. But keep in mind: don’t save on speakers, they’re very significant. There are lots of cheesy home theater speaker sets on the market, but you should not purchase one of them, since these are of poor quality. Usually, sets manufactured by well-know brands (Klipsch, Bose, for instance) produce a decent sound. This way you’ll still not spend as much as you would on separate speakers.

Going By the Piece

So, you’re serious about your future home theater, and prefer to drop a little more on the speakers? Purchasing speakers individually has many advantages: it’s the best quality you can have, and another, often unnoted advantage is that you can don’t have to buy the whole set at once, so if you haven’t got the money, you are able to still have high quality speakers in your setup.

Your front speakers should be the most potent members in your home theater speaker setup. If you’ve a small room, pick out bookshelf speakers. Larger rooms will call for larger speakers; in that case, powerful floor-standing speakers is the option to go with.

You may have heard that it is advisable to have the exact same speakers for surround and front. This is on-key, but it’s not very practical: movie sound mixes don’t use surround speakers as much as they use the front speakers. So, you are able to pick out smaller and less-powerful speakers for your surround setup, it won’t make substantial deviations anywhere except your pocketbook.

The surround and front units were good, old-hat hi-fi speakers applied for a home theater setup. The case is dissimilar with our center speaker. It’s a particular speaker with unique frequency response. If it’s possible, have the center speaker from the same brand name as the surround and front speakers. This element is also often neglected, but it’s very crucial, because this speaker is used for voices and talking in a sound mix.

The subwoofer is used to reproduce the lower frequencies. Occasionally, it’s optional: the front speakers can be potent enough to rock the house, and an additional subwoofer isn’t required. Even so, in larger rooms, it’s inevitable. Subwoofers call for lots of power, and in most cases, they require their own power input signal; these are called “active subwoofers”.
