How to Pick Side Speakers for Home Theater Systems

Hi, this is expertvillage.com, we're at Leigh Adams Discount Sales and my name is Daniel Daly. Today we're going to be demonstrating how to set up your perfect home theater be it a little screen LCD, big ELP's, even giant screens on the wall. Once again, if you have a big room, say twenty by twenty or larger, you'd most likely want to go with towers. I wouldn't settle for anything less. A good tower speaker has a build in sub woofer, meaning, I don't need to go out and buy myself a sub woofer unless I really like my house to shake. Does that mean you don't need a sub woofer? Not at all but you can get away without one. These speakers should either be placed to the direct side of your screen or in the corners depending on how you face them. Some tower speakers are called, bi-polar speakers. What these do is, you have the sound coming out directly from the front but what most speakers do is after they produce their sound in front they waste a lot of energy which turns into heat. This particular company decided well let's use that energy to our advantage. Let's shoot some sound out to the sides. What this does for you is it wraps the sound around the room giving you what I said before, ambiance. That's the goal here. You want to know that there is not a speaker here but the whole sound of the movie is around you. You don't want to know there's a speaker there, you don't want to know there's speakers back there.
