4 Keys for Finding and Selecting the Perfect Speaker for Your Home

 Home Theatre Systems India | Majority of home audio enthusiasts easily use search engines and get driven to the momentum of Home Theatre Systems available in India, and most precisely end them with the brand that was capable to come on top in every search and review including the video reviews which has been a trend recently at least in major places like Bangalore, Delhi, Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata, etc.

While some exceptional people move through such soil and reach for the real advice that is not keen on brand marketing techniques but a genuine share of research knowledge and audio engineering expertise of several years.

It’s time to locate the 4 major keys that can help you select the perfect speaker for your Home!

Key 1: Basics

The ‘What you need’ factor

We all know and might relate to the below list but nobody checks them specifically during an audition or sound test,

Ease of assembling and tweaking the features

Build quality and longevity, physically and technically

Long, listenable and non-fatiguing capability

Connectivity options suit your other devices and future proof

Everybody at home is happy with it unless you’re staying alone

Warranty, higher the better

Key 2: Wear your Tech Specs

What to read?

Mostly mentioned in the specifications as part of the manual or brochure

Total Harmonic Distortion and Noise should be reading lowest possible

Signal to noise ratio should be higher to cut down or unhear your audio machine’s noise that hampers music

Sensitivity of the speakers or processors and output wattage are very important to match and to get the best audio that suits your room size

Crosstalk, not you, the amplifier channel interference with each other

Key 3: Expectations

What people most commonly want in Audio Systems?

Zero Distortion at any given frequency

Heavy Bass possibility yet customizable 

Clarity of vocals and different instruments and their various modulations as played

Pitch perfect delivery of every sound from the track or video played

Use apps to measure its frequencies if audition manager does not have one

Compatibility to Devices you may purchase as per future plans

Final Key: Press play

Brilliance of your set up of home Audio really matters, intelligence is even better,

While we have Bangalore for instance, where people set up expensive to a range of audio system variants compiled at their home, they often get untidy while playing them or playing around with them.

But with connection switching inconveniences and too many wires and console table structure we get nervous and look like a mess up in front of our guests and even to our own family members.

So, what the fix?

Go for a convenient console table or set up to easily access the ports at the back without having to move the tables or consoles and those that allow you to have easy switch over by hitting unified IR blaster or switcher.

Savvy on music and or movies?

Get a player that can load your Blu-rays or CDs in hundreds and juke and shuffle whenever and however you want. Yes they are available with mega CD storage com changer.

Or get a lossless media player with connectivity and audio profiles up to the mark.

Hassle free integrated power amps with multiple options and features should be in place unless your high profile processor stands tall.

With these keys surely you could feed the geek or audiophile in you or the enthusiasm with the appetite for satisfaction!

A Guide to how Speakers and Amplifiers work together

 

Engine capacity Vs Curb Weight has to go hand-in-hand as we know in automotives”

 

Here it’s the Amplifiers Versus Speakers that makes it simple to understand right?

 

But let’s see how much technical we can travel through this to get it right for our understanding!

 

It is highly important to understand this, while we graduate to use this set up even as an amateur music lover or audio fanatic!

 

First things first: Impedance, Power handling and Sensitivity

 

Impedance of Amplifiers and speakers are mentioned in Ohms between 4 to 8 Ω. Unless your Amplifier and Speaker are down to these ranges it’s not recommended to drive them at higher volume levels which could result in failure of your Amp or Speaker!

 

Power handling is usually mentioned in wattage and some do not mention the peak power of the speaker but it’s better to go by the RMS / nominal power output of your Amplifier and your speaker

 

Monoblock Stereo Power Amplifier India | Power in RMS mentioned is the Root Mean Square, alright I mean the effective value of sound waves delivered whereas peak power is utilizing incoming voltage to its maximum capacity possible towards the sound waves which may not be as natural or clear as heard from the actual recording. While some people may still love the ground shaking or heart hitting powerful bass and shrills it’s not often advisable or acceptable to the majority out there.

 

Therefore, the Wattage output of Amplifier cannot stand at 50Watts per channel and we end up hooking a 150 watt per channel speaker set up to it just because we liked that speaker and couldn’t upgrade to a better Integrated amp or processor which supports its actual power.

 

Sensitivity is usually looked by us independently but we should ideally take it together with the overall frequency response range in Kilohertz that usually ranges from 20 Hz to 22,000 kHz. Sensitivity means how easily an amplifier can drive the speakers. Low sensitivity speakers need bigger amps as higher sensitivity ones need low amplifiers. Anything above 90 dB is good enough for home usage.

 

Some Knowledge on Speakers and Amplifiers...

 

Speakers:

Low, mid and high frequency ranges are catered by various combination of the drivers. There are several driver variants to choose from and each one has its unique characteristics utilized by an engineer.

 

While not missing out on the above specifications we may choose from a dynamic speaker like the two-way/three-way bookshelf or floor standing speakers or electrostatic ones with lower distortion trends, ribbon, bi-polar, or horn-built speakers which are a little more efficient in nature.

 

Amplifiers:

While frequencies are similar for our knowledge here the amplifiers used in building subwoofers or speakers or even externally used Stereo or multi-channel amplifiers are classified into A, B, D, G, H and A/B.

 

Dedicated transformers for separate channels, high-end monoblock, vacuum tubes, transistors, Ultrasonic, Wide-band, and high gain electronic amplifiers are some variants in build classification. Each has its unified response ranges but from sound perspectives they may have minor differences while the high-end ones carefully built can show a major difference in terms of soundstage and definition of each frequency reproduced.

 

Integrated Amplifiers can be a readymade option for those who want limited components yet a great amplification and power output for their good to great sounding speakers as they can supply enough power to the speakers

 

While some may use an excellent processor and amplifier built in their high end so called AVR and be happy with it and as long as that works for their needs it is still okay.

 

Conclusion:

So, squeezing all of these in a nutshell, an Amplifier should carry the perfect sound signals and hand it over to Speakers at any given volume level with ease and without losing the timbre of the sound.

 

Have a great sound!

What to consider when choosing a Home Theatre

 

Home Theatres Speakers India | Knowing who we are and what we want comes first, before we even start looking at the Home Theatre offerings in the market especially in Bangalore as emerging demands understood by dealers can make a sale for you, which might later hurt!

Yes. This is a fact with the amateur music or movie enthusiasts often or even the ones who have exposure to mid range or high end audio!

A) How to analyze ourselves to get closer to what we really want without confusion?

(This is to ensure you don’t invest on the wrong setup which attracts financial loss and stress)

1.    Audition a variety of speaker setups, use references of the people who own them within your contacts or who are on forums or reselling sites and even consider visiting some uni or multi-branded AV solution showrooms; Bangalore makes this easy as you have lots of audio rooms to visit and quiet a lot of enthusiasts to catch up with.

2.    Make sure you always carry your usual playlists that you often listen to which must include some versatile tracks consisting of multiple instruments or those that reproduce all frequencies to the best.

3.    Interact more about the brand and model of speakers and Audio gears involved in the setup; then their cost, procured channel, merchant, product warranty, availability of spares and service etc.

4.    From your personal experiences and not just by online reviews, list out to yourself the best setup that gave you the ‘WOW’ factor. Ah ah we are not ready yet! Now we should admit that we know less like I learnt to!

5.    So, start sharing the journey of your listening experience with specifics on social media or dedicated AV or audio forums

6.    Here you get to read well seasoned music enthusiasts, speaker designers, audio engineers, top audiophiles and even some lux class AV setup owners! They keep upgrading or pack more variants and different generations of setups to their craze!

7.    You get friendly information or added support to your hunt for free which is worth exploring, you almost virtually graduate yourself in your audio perspectives and could also feel more confident in judging reviews or auditions here on.

 

B) How to shortlist the best audio finally not once but each time you upgrade?

(Remember to follow the same steps above as a routine each time)

 

1.    Each time we learn new things, latest updates and upgrade options and why and what's of them too. So, do keep in mind that you invest only on reliable and warranted products.

 

2.    Make sure to consult about your final decision with an audio engineer or audio consultants who are non-tactical in their advice, share knowledge instead of discounts and a relationship instead of sale.

 

3.    Invest in products that do not take your money for all their lavish advertising and showroom or operational cost but for their reasonable margin and affordable pricing yet providing the output that is engineered to fit you right!

 

4.    Relieve blockers like “I only want Japanese or Europe or England make”, because at last we should consider the fact that there are superior quality home theatre systems and audio products manufactured in India which does not use Chinese spares at all. Define to make a difference between ‘Brand pride’ and ‘True Indulgence’ when it comes to Audio.

 

5.     When you get a different opinion or better suggestion,do consider an audition

 

6.    Atmos, 2 way/3 way and audio certifications does not matter as we do not easily get Atmos content or discs, nobody has a living room or TV room with acoustic perfection.If engineering standards meet scientific units in the audio analyzer’s graph well you got the bang for your buck and a green signal to spend on the setup!

 

Note: Now, for the investors into audio ranging from 10 to 20 Lakhs or even over to Lux ranges people still lag to realize that the maximum margin is obtained in the form of defining quality but it’s the import cost with taxes and huge margins that we pay for, we would rather invest on a good UHD Blu-ray Disc player.

Audio Speakers - How to choose the Best System

Choosing the Best sounding Music speakers Bangalore could be both enriching and challenging!!It is an often-observed fact among music lovers which is mainly due to the structure of our market in the Audio or music speaker’s department

In recent years the emergence of music lovers who graduated through the brain recorded brand names and cheap quality home theatres or CD music systems cheaper than 10 grants have been shooting high numbers. It’s good to notice all age groups and income groups now started getting thirsty for the pure and natural sound of their favorite songs and even lossless frequencies have been a demand on the table!

 

But, do they all have a choice irrelevant of budget, no but yes!

Why does it Matter to have a good music system and not just some set of speakers?

Audio Speakers Bangalore | It is worth investing in a good music system(Yes! Because it relieves your stress and tiredness and revives your day) within reasonable budget, to wake up to the day of your pleasant experience that enters through your ears to melt down any mood to a smile!

Many of us still think playing music requires speakers with Bluetooth capability in this era or TV with a sound bar. I am sure many of us noticed or even have a similar setup to listen to music. Sometimes, it’s just the LED TV speakers or basic earphones/headphones hooked to their phone.

Well while we feel the best comfort with the right choice and fitness of clothes, music frequencies find their way best to fit in lossless audio and something that can play it without killing its purity, then receive and transmit to a set of speakers which again should wave out the sound just like it was received.

This is not a job well done by any of the earlier mentioned variety or range of speakers as far as the researchers, engineers and music enthusiasts/Audiophiles are concerned and it is true!

In India, hard hitting bass, booming low frequencies are in our nerves but there are an equal number of people and the same set of people find their pleasant surprises often while they encounter audiophile range of music setup!

It’s true that we haven’t heard the pleasant voices of our favorite singers yet to their best and so are the music instruments!

Let’s list out now,

What makes it up for a great music System!

1.    Speakers:A great pair of Stereo speakers and if the punch of the concert is your choice a Subwoofer that matches the above.

2.    Amplifier: Good Receiver or Amplifier

3.    Source: A Lossless audio player or a Compact Disc player that reproduces the best out of the tracks being played!

Important things to remember:

 

      I.        A good music system does not need acoustically sealed room and India does not want them in their living room decor for sure!

    II.        Some may go beyond this to find their kind of sound they want, that's their choice not necessary for all.

   III.        When we say match, it’s the scientific units and room size for the right power.

  IV.        So why the receiver or amplifier, it is to provide the sound staging and power and quality delivered to the speakers.

    V.        If you feel the music system you auditioned gives a smooth and great performance of your music, make sure you listen longer and with different genres to get to know it better!

  VI.        A good sounding music reproducing the right frequencies and at your regularlistening volume levels does not tire you or make your head heavy.

 VII.        It gives the ease of listening experience in your relaxed mode, however if it fills your spirit and makes you dance that is fine!
