Many of us have seen advertisements for a device that manufacturers call a "soundbar" or soundbar. In appearance, it looks like a kind of long audio speaker. What is a soundbar really and what is it for?
Instructions
Step 1
Translated from English, the soundbar means "soundbar". That is, its second name, the soundbar, is essentially a literal translation. A soundbar is not just an audio speaker, but a whole speaker system that can replace a full-fledged 5.1 home theater system in a small room of up to 18 m².
Step 2
The soundbar is a column with speakers installed in it. They are tiny, but powerful enough to pump a small room up to 18 m². The manufacturer carefully calculated the characteristics and coordinated the speakers with each other, directed them at the right angle. This is why installing a soundbar is so much easier than installing a home theater system with real speakers. Correctly placing all five speakers and a subwoofer is a challenge for true professionals. And the soundbar is easy to install: under the TV or above it. According to the owners of this device, the most comfortable listening area is 5 meters away, where the sofa is most often located.
Step 3
Modern soundbars are equipped with a wireless subwoofer, which adds rich bass to the surround sound. It is not necessary to install it near the soundbar. The only rule for determining the place of this large column is as follows. Rearrange it until in the main listening position, on the couch, you hear good bass, not boom.
