Feb. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Media Room Designs .Net Launches New Website

Picture yourself watching a new release eating some popcorn in a new media room that you designed. What would it look like? In this media room design you are thinking about, what type of screen would be in there? Would your design use a large Theaterwide Cinema TV? What about the speaker system? Would it be 5.1? 7.1 in this media room design? What about using 3D in your media room design? Do these words seem foreign to you?

Media Room Designs .Net is trying to shed some light on the technical mysteries of basic to complex media room designs.

Our first article covering media room design is about of selecting a speaker configuration used in most media room designs.

Most Common Speaker Configurations Used in Media Rooms

2.1
The 2.1 channel surround sound system is the easiest solution that you can use in your media room design. This style uses a two speaker configuration and a subwoofer.

Sound Bar With Subwoofer
A sound bar is another simple media room speaker solution. It incorporates virtual surround sound to fill the room with sound. A subwoofer my be used for the low frequency sounds.

5.1
The 5.1 is the most commonly used configuration by cinema producers in current movie releases and by consumers in media room designs. The 5.1 channel surround sound system is the a little more difficult to implement in your media room design. This surround sound configuration uses a front left, front right, back left, back right, and center channel configuration and a subwoofer. Incorporating this configuration into your media room design will take a little more planning. The front surround speakers should be angled toward the center of the listening position between 22 and 30 degrees. The rear surround speakers should be behind the sitting position and angled toward the middle of the sitting seat between 90 and 110 degrees.
