Surround sound, also known as distributed audio, is a highly sought-after feature many people use to optimize their home entertainment systems. Whether you watch movies regularly, stream TV series, or like to catch the game every week, having high-quality sound can transform your viewing experience. Here’s why you should pay just as much attention to your listening experience as your picture quality. 

How Does Surround Sound Work?

Traditional TVs feature speakers on specific locations on the device. They feature two-channel recordings, which provide a speaker on either side of the TV for a blended listening experience to appeal to the two human ears. This helps recreate the authentic sound of an event.

Surround sound systems further enhance sound quality by incorporating additional audio channels. With these systems, multiple speakers are strategically installed in various parts of the environment so sound emanates from at least three directions. As a result, the sound “surrounds” the listener. Since its inception, this home audio solution has been improved in terms of speaker quality and technology, eliminating the need for messy wires and clunky devices.

What Are the Benefits of Surround Sound?

Improved Sound Quality

Not only do these audio systems have crisper sound, but they also offer customizable options for bass and treble. This means you can adjust your audio according to your unique preferences for a one-of-a-kind experience.

Enhanced Authenticity

Improved acoustics can immerse you in whatever you’re watching, whether it’s the big game on Sunday or your favorite television series. Because sound comes at you from every angle, you can hear elements like cheering fans, referees, movie explosions, and character dialogue as if you’re really there.

A Home Theater Experience

Homes equipped with big-screen TVs or projectors as well as comfortable, spacious seating just need one final element to round out their home theater: quality sound. A distributed audio system allows you to recreate the sound effects of a theater as closely as possible in the home environment.
