Home Theater - Denon AVR-X1100W Bedienungsanleitung

Home Theater

Sound is a big part of the movie-watch-
ing experience, which explains why a
good deal of time and money goes into
the sound during movie production.
When you watch a movie in a movie
theater, this is very noticeable. The
sound fills the entire room and sur-
rounds the viewing public in a way that
an ordinary TV cannot begin to match.
You can feel the helicopter flying over-
head or the bullets whizzing by. A home
theater system gives you the acoustic
image that moviemakers had in mind
when they made the movie. Your own
little home theater will let your recreate
the magic you would otherwise only be
able to experience in a very large venue.
Audio Pro speakers are perfectly suited
to a home theater system because all of
our speakers are voice-matched within
a series, making a great many different
combinations possible.
Where to place your home theater
Center loudspeaker: The most impor-
tant speaker in a home theater system.
This speaker reproduces all the voices
and special effects on the screen. It is
vital that the center speaker be voice-
matched with the other front speakers
so that all the sound that travels be-
tween the different speakers is in har-
mony. Place the center speaker as close
to the picture as possible, preferably in
the center, over or under it.
Front speakers: It is important that the
front speakers be matched with the
center speaker and, obviously, with each
other, so that the sound is balanced and
natural. In order to get the most out of
your movie-viewing experience, place
the three front speakers parallel to each
other and at the same height.

Surround speakers: The rear speakers
in a home movie system are known as
surround sound speakers. This is where
the difference between an analog and
digital system becomes apparent. With
an analog system, the rear speakers
do not need to be voice-matched with
the front speakers because the sound
is limited in its frequency range and
reproduced in mono. In a digital system,
however, all the speakers, except for
the subwoofer must be voice-matched
because the sound is reproduced in five
separate channels and with a full fre-
quency range.
Subwoofer: The subwoofer only repro-
duces deep bass, meaning frequencies
under 100 Hz. As humans cannot deter-
mine the direction of these low frequen-
cies, this speaker does not contribute to
the localization of sound and therefore
does not need to be visible to the lis-
tener. On the other hand, its placement
in the room is very important. To find
the best location for your subwoofer, we
suggest that you try out different place-
ments; the sound should be pure and
deep, not loud or muffled. We recom-
mend that you place the subwoofer
against a wall, where the bass will be
amplified by 3dB, or in a corner, where it
will be amplified by 6dB.
