What is a good speaker

A SPEAKER IS
• “A speaker converts electrical energy into audible
sound waves. These sound waves are created using a
complex device made of metal, magnets, wire,
plastic and paper. The vibrations are created by an
electrical signal changing the strength of a speaker's
rear magnet, thus causing a paper or plastic cone to
create sound waves by vibrating”

WHAT DOES A SPEAKER DO?
• “A loudspeaker or speaker is a device that converts electrical
energy waves into mechanical energy waves or audible
sounds. Sound is produced by the vibration of an object. This
vibration sets up a series of ripples or waves much like what is
seen when a stone is thrown into a pond. Speakers reproduce
sound waves (or audio) at various frequencies. The frequency
is the rate at which the particles in the air vibrate. Sound that
the human ear can hear is from about 20 hertz (Hz) to 20,000
Hz or 20 kilohertz (kHz). Speakers are used in all types of
communications and entertainment equipment such as radio
and television receivers, tape recorders, telephone answering
machines, baby monitors, and stereo home entertainment
systems”.
Home Audio Speakers
• When the term "Home Audio Speakers" is
used today, it can really refer to several
different types of audio speakers. We might
first think of the standard, relatively old
fashioned or 'old-school' bookshelf or floor
speakers which have been around for
decades. Just because I referred to them as
old fashioned, this certainly does not reflect
upon the sound quality these types of home
audio speakers are capable of producing.
RMS
• Does your car stereo system have great sound?
• Root Mean Squared, or RMS, is a formula used
to calculate an approximate average for the
power an amplifier can continuously create and
a speaker receives. When used in reference to
speakers, the term helps identify the power of
the speaker and the quality of sound you hear.

Home Audio Speakers
• it was to recognizable to have a set of
bookshelf or the floor speakers. These floor
speakers ranged from 12" to 18" high & the
bookshelf speakers right up to 3' to 5'. for
anytime, you'll be shocked at how the sound
quality of many old standard style speakers
have improved in recent years
Ohms
• A further area of confusion is the ohm power
of the speaker when referring to the RMS of
the amplifier. In general, an amplifier provides
a specific RMS to a specific ohm of speaker;
for example 100 watts of RMS power into a 6ohm speaker. When reviewing RMS, make
sure your speakers are the same ohm as the
speaker noted in the amplifier's information. If
they don't match, the RMS information isn't
accurate.

Sound System
When you're designing a sound system, the
RMS rating of the amplifier is a critical piece
of information. The larger the RMS, the
cleaner and louder the sound your amplifier
produces. The amplifier powers the sound,
the speakers receive this sound.

RMS OF SPEAKERS
• Speakers
• On a speaker, the RMS refers to how much
power the speaker can accept from the
amplifier. If your amplifier feeds too much
power to your speaker, your speaker will first
distort the sound, and then overheat.

• Ok, I'll admit a surround sound set up
is a little more involved than
connecting a TV - but you'll be amazed
by the added enjoyment you'll get
when watching a movie....and it's not
that complicated.

WOTT IS A GOOD Home theatre
system
• A home theater system can be a daunting task. Just
how much should one budget? What are the best
products for the price? These are common questions
you may have or should have when assembling a home
theater system or you are by one. You don't need to fill
your room with amplifiers, speaker cables, or surround
sound speakers that fill every available space in the
room. But these days a modest AV receiver with some
small satellite speakers can give you an excellent
sound.

So lets look at the basics of setting up
a decent home theatere sound
• system. Firstly, you'll need an amplifier and some speakers.
• You may be able to use the existing hi-fi system you already have in your
room (which is probably only for stereo sound) - or if you want to have a
surround sound set up, you will need to buy an AV receiver (aka a
surround sound receiver).
• Another option is to get an all-in-one home theater system (also known as
home theater in-a-box - or HTiB) which includes an processor/amplifier
and speakers together (and sometimes a DVD/ Blu-ray player too).
• Go to the article on the home theater system for more information on the
home theater in a box option, in this article we will just discuss the basics
of hooking up stereo or surround sound systems.
• So how do we quickly improve the sound in our room?
• Easy, you just send the audio output from your program source (DVD
player, cable box, PS3, Xbox etc.)
• to the AV receiver/amplifier - and then this sends
• the sound to the speakers in your room.
