What to choose depends on the venue layout, the ceiling height, the furniture, the drapes, and even the carpet.

And in general, you also want to learn how to choose a wireless microphone based on its technical aspects.

So, let’s dive in:

1. What’s A “Wireless Microphone”

2. When Do I Need A Microphone?

15 Just Practice!

Bonus Tip #1: Practice At A Toastmasters Club

Bonus Tip #2: Don’t Shout to Your Audience

Bonus Tip #3: What To Wear

Bonus Tip #4: “Avoid Things And People”

Bonus Tip #5: Don’t Wear It To The Bathroom Room

Bonus Tip #6: Look Like A Seasoned “Public Speaker”

Bonus Tip # 7: Add Audiovisual Enhancements

1. What’s A “Wireless Microphone”

A “Wireless Microphone” is a handheld component the user uses to SPEAK.

It converts the sound waves into electrical signals which can then be processed and amplified so listeners can hear it.

A Wireless Microphone system consists of three main components:

A handheld microphone with a transmitter (TX) and a receiver (RX)

Here is how it works:

When the speaker talks into the Microphone.

First, the transmitter converts the voice into a radio wave frequency and then transmits it through a channel.

Secondly, the receiver decodes the radio wave frequency coming from the transmitter and changes it back into an electric signal.

Finally, the receiver provides a line-level current that travels to an amplifier that subsequently will play it through a sound system.

(Note: the mic comes with a built-in transmitter in it)

But if you have a (“hands-free”) microphone like a lavaliere or headset then, the transmitter is usually a pack that clips to clothing.

2. When Do I Need A Microphone?

Here is the truth:

It all depends on the venue, that’s it!

It also helps to know:

The square footage of the room

The type of furniture

Room layout

Carpeting or flooring type

Ceiling height

Sources of possible interfering noises

It’s all basic.

But, the reality says choosing wireless microphones can be confusing and at times, an art.

So, also consider all of the following elements before setting up your cordless microphone in the room.

3. What “Size Audience” Is The Limit?  

There is no magic number or a silver bullet.

You don’t need a wireless microphone if the “size audience” is 20 spectators and they are around you.

However, sometimes, you do need it for only 20 people if they are far away from you.

The fact is:

It’s always better to USE a microphone.

(“even if you aren’t sure is necessary”)

Like the old saying goes – It’s better safe than sorry.

Think for a moment, if you don’t need it, then you can turn it off.

Well, if you do “need it” and don’t have it, then it is TOO LATE.

4. Are Microphones Reliable?

A wireless microphone is a safer choice, plus it’s very convenient and reliable.

It is a fact:

Cheap corded microphones deliver low sound quality.

Wired microphones hide the AV cords.

Wireless microphones provide mobility

Also, remember, you may encounter a situation where a guest would like to share some crucial comments.

That’s the moment that you realize wireless technology is 100% reliable and makes our lives better.

Comfortably use your wireless microphones.

Make sure to connect it and rubbing against another surface is not an issue.

Look for the perfect place to hook it up, so the audio quality is best.

And don’t worry, wireless microphones DON’T FAIL.

5. Practice “Speaking and Holding”

Learn to transfer it from one hand to the other naturally.

It usually looks best to grip the wireless microphone with the whole hand and not with just the fingers.

Since the antenna is at the bottom of the microphone, hold it near the top.

Your hand can block the signal and make the mic cut in and out.

Relax, and remember:

“Speaking and Holding” it while moving around the room is the best.

6. Where is the On and Off Switch

Find out how the switch works.

Be also aware that some microphones also have a standby switch.

With that said, I recommend to LEARN how to use the switches even with the lights out.

Here is where it gets interesting:

Start your talk with a fully charged battery and have a spare one handy.

Knowing how to replace it in case something unexpected happens is always a plus.

7. The “Live Test”

Have an assistant walk the room to check the volume setting.

The “live test” is useful since it allows you to look for feedback spots.

These feedback spots are usually:

Under and in front of speakers.

Avoid these areas during your talk.

8. Watch The Speakers On The Program Before You

Paying attention to this is especially essential since it provides excellent clues.

How well is their wireless microphone projecting their voice in the room?

Is there something you could learn from how they use the microphone?

Are the speakers before you having mic problems?

These are questions that are good to remember before it is your turn using the mic.

9. When It’s Time For You To Be Onstage

You’ve already tested the cordless microphone.

Don’t tap on it. Don’t blow into it. Don’t say, “Is this thing on?” Or, “Can you hear me?”

Just start talking.

Preparation loves destiny; it’ll be working just fine.

Don’t you know? You’ll soon find out.

Here is a good idea:

It’s a unique idea to have an assistant that can monitor the room and watch for things that aren’t right or can provide technical assistance in any circumstance.

10. Energize Your “Voice”

Here is how it works:

Speak the same as always but with energy.

Don’t speak into the microphone – talk past it.

Let the microphone overhear your conversation.

Speaking into the microphone often causes your Ps to “pop” in the speakers.

Adjust your “voice” and immediately, you’ll sound BETTER.

11. How To Handle “Questions” From The Audience

Want it or not, a member of the audience will have “questions” during your talk.

The critical factor to remember is to go back to the body position you were before the person talked.

For example:

If you were sitting and then you started to ask questions, then you have to stand up.

Address the questions and then return to your sitting position.

That communicates through body language that the unnecessary questions need to stop, and the presentation has to continue.

There are occasions where the attendee asking a question may need a wireless microphone. Have one ready

On the other hand:

You can also encounter the situation where someone that also has a microphone tries to help to answer the questions for you.

It’s okay to include everyone since that adds value and more credibility.

(Note: that if you don’t want anyone interfering with your presentation, it’s better to make sure that all additional microphones are OFF)

12. Keep It In Front Of You At All Times

If you are using a fixed wireless mic, that is on a stand or attached to a podium.

And in case you’re going to look to the right while speaking.

Turn your head to the right; you need first to move your body to the left since figuratively there is an imaginary line to your mic.

In fact:

Imagine there is a string between your nose and the microphone.

13. How To Adjust The Proper Height

Before your introduction to the audience, have someone stablish the proper microphone height:

Also, it helps to practice adjusting the body posture ahead of time.

(“be aware of the way you are looking while delivering your talk”).

Also, remember that some stands are fragile and can break when you are in front of your audience.

Once you start speaking: “Remove the wireless microphones from the stand and engage the audience by walking around the room.”

14. How To Adjust A “Gooseneck Attachment”

Here is the deal:

Do it while talking.

That’s right!

The sound of your voice will help you by covering any squeaking noise resulting from the gooseneck.

We all know it a “gooseneck attachment” is an unexpected problem sometimes.

And nobody wants to be EMBARRASSED about dealing with it.

15. Just Practice!

Which leads me to finalize with the essential piece of advice: “Speaking with a wireless microphone needs to become a natural part of you.”

Practice makes perfection, and attention to small details gives you a competitive advantage.

And as promised here are the bonus tips:

Bonus Tip #1: You Can Practice At A Toastmasters Club

There is nothing better than having an audience of peers how can provide you great feedback about your presentations.

Toastmasters is where you can polish your skills and advance your experience handling a mic.

Additionally, professional working adults will provide all the possible challenges you’ll face when using a microphone in a real-life presentation.

Bonus Tip #2: Don’t Shout To Your Audience

Many public speakers use wireless microphones but don’t know how to select the appropriate type, and mistakenly think they don’t need a wireless microphone.

“I’m a REAL speaker. I don’t need a wireless microphone. I’ll shout my speech!”

Don’t make that MISTAKE.

The “microphone” is your friend and allows you greater flexibility in your vocal variety. 

And if you are delivering an important message, then a microphone is crucial.

Vocal variety adds spice to your words, and the audience needs to hear your punch-lines.

A microphone helps you meet both needs.

Bonus Tip #3: What To Wear

When you aren’t wearing the proper CLOTHING to accommodate a clip-on power pack can be an issue.

(Note: Some straps can be used to hold the power pack in place)

Bonus Tip #4: “Avoid Things And People”

Avoid hugging someone since they can unclip your power pack.

In other words, be aware of the things you are holding since they can disconnect the cords.

Bonus Tip #5: Don’t Wear It To The Bathroom Room

Well, this one I believe I don’t have to explain too much 🙂

Just make sure to turn the microphone off when using the bathroom…

… you don’t want to regret eating nachos and drinking beer for the rest of your life.

Bonus Tip #6: Look Like A Seasoned “Public Speaker”

Place the podium behind you, so it doesn’t stay between you and your audience.

And then as you are about to finalize your talk.

Move the stand back in front of you, and place the microphone where it was before you say your final words.

You’ll look like a “public speaker” trust me.

Bonus Tip # 7: Add “Audiovisual Enhancements”

Add “audiovisual enhancements” to your presentation to keep your audience engaged throughout your performance with your mic.

The best tip for your company presentation is to synchronize a work laptop with the projector installed in the conference room and show slides using a Business Google Drive Account.

These simple audiovisual enhancements may look simple but are always overlooked

TV Cables, Connectors and Ports https://ift.tt/2KNNRN9

To begin with, let’s mention that new televisions come with different types of TV cables, connectors, and ports.

As a result, figuring out what connects where can be confusing.

Additionally, there is a logic behind all those peculiar cables and connectors that connect to the television ports.

As a matter of fact, let’s define first their functionalities and then their designed differences.

Cables

Cables

Firstly, all different types of cables transmit analog and digital electronic signals.

Not to mention that these cables come with an exterior layer of insulation that keeps the signal from spilling to other conducting wires.

Therefore, several conductors inside a cable can have their own functionality and technical specification.

In other words, all cables include the connectors, conductors and insulating coating and connectors.

Connectors

Connectors

Secondly, connectors are the electromechanical devices that connect terminations and create an electrical circuit.

For this reason, it is important to know that connectors are the same as plugs and that have a male gender.

Ports

Ports

Thirdly, all ports allow the connection of peripherals electronic system through input or output ports.

Consequently, keep in mind that ports are the same as sockets and have a female gender.

HDMI cables

HDMI Cables

High Definition Multimedia Interface or HDMI cables transmit audio, video, control signals, low voltage power, ethernet and copyright protection (HDCP).

Optical cables

Optical Cables

The latest trend is optical cables use a fiber optical cable to transmit a digital audio signal.

Ethernet cables

Ethernet cables connect a TV to the internet. A hardwired connection is faster and more reliable.

USB cables

USB Cables

The main function of USB cables is to transfer audio, video, data and even charging components.

Component Video Cables

Component Cables

Red, blue and green component video cables transmit high-quality analog video. Commonly referred to as analog HD.

Composite Video Cables

Composite Cables

Commonly composite video cables transmit analog video in standard definition (SD). Commonly referred to as analog HD.

RCA audio cables

RCA Audio Cables

As far as RCA audio cables transmit analog audio signals mostly with the stereo format.

Auxiliary cables

Auxiliary Cables

Remember auxiliary cables transmit analog audio signals using a 3.5 mm connector.

One Connect Cables

One Connect Cables

Uniquely made, One Connect cables transmit audio, video, and infrared signals through a single fiber optic cable.

Also, the Samsung One Connect Box is a media receiver with a built-in TV tuner.

In addition, it minimizes cable clutter by functioning as a hub for connecting all the compatible devices.

TV Cables, Connectors, and Ports Infographic

In the light of looking for more info check this very powerful infographic called cables, ports, and connectors infographic.

TV Cables, Connectors, and Ports

For instance, this infographic shows how to integrate audio, video, control, low power, and data integration with a new television.

Similarly, these are all the ports and connectors that new televisions come with. 

In conclusion, understanding what cables to use and what is compatible with what when setting up a television can be frustrating.

How to Mount a TV on 8 Types of Walls https://ift.tt/30iDSF4

Understanding the 8 types of walls the TV can be mounted on is especially important when tasked with mounting a television. 

The fact that a TV install can be done on almost any type of surface sometimes provides unexpected unique challenges that require specific solutions. 

Gaining deep insights into the types of walls is a very good way to ensure the TV is safely mounted and is not going to fall off the wall.

Drywall Walls

Drywall, also known as sheetrock, wallboard, plasterboard, LAGYP and gypsum board, is a sheet manufactured mostly from gypsum plaster that is hard-pressed between two thick sheets of paper.  

It is used to make interior walls and ceilings. Generally used in most homes in the United States, the product is sold under the trademarks Sheetrock.

Fortunately, television mounting on these types of walls is accomplished somewhat easier than some other types of surfaces since the only requirement necessary to ultimately mount a television on the drywall walls is to find the wooden stud inside the wall.

Brick Walls

It is made of kneaded clay-bearing soil, lime, sand, concrete material, or a combination of all of them.

Frequently fire hardened or air dried, utilized in brickwork construction.

Installing a television on the wall when faced with a brick wall normally requires the use of brick or concrete anchors and is advised that it is only done by a professional TV installer.

Concrete Walls

Concrete walls are manufactured from a combination of pulverized stone, sand, cement and water that solidifies to a stone-like mass.

To mount a television on a concrete wall is always recommended to the installers with the best experience.

It may require a powerful cordless drill, plastic or metal anchor for the bolts and a strong person to drill the holes since reinforced concrete is mostly used in most homes and is exponentially challenged to get the TV level without drilling additional holes for adjustments.

Stone Walls

It is frequently crafted from different materials varying from granite, sandstone, marble, slate, tile, travertine to limestone or flint.

TV mounting on stone walls may require diamond drill bits and extra anchors for the bolts that will hold the wall plate against the wall.

It is especially recommended that only a professional installation company like Multimedia Tech with over 10 years of experience gets a project of this type done since these types of walls to tend to crack if the wrong technique is used when drilling holes.

Wood Walls

Wood walls are a structure that is positioned on the edges of foundations or platforms and must be supported by 2 pillars if possible.

This type of wall is pretty much the easiest to use to mount a TV since no matter the position pretty much every surface on the wall is a fair game.

Siding Walls

Siding walls often found in most newer homes and are often made from synthetic options such as cement board, aluminum, and vinyl.

This kind of wall is mostly seen outdoors to protect against the elements and for decorative purposes.

A TV installation on this kind of wall can be challenging since even the most advanced stud finders in the market have difficulties providing accurate location of the studs inside the wall.

Also, since most of the time siding is used for exterior walls, waterproofing with silicone after all the drilling is done is highly recommended.

Interior Walls

An interior wall is built from 2 inches by 4 inches or 2 inches by 6-inch wall studs and framing.

Commonly covered with panels of drywall that are screwed or nailed to the framing.

In most cases, interior walls do not have any insulation inside them which makes installing wiring for the tv installation project less complicated and readings provided by a stud finder more accurate.

Exterior Walls

An exterior wall is an external wall or vertical enclosure of a construction.

This type of wall structure provides mostly a decorative finish and waterproofing capabilities.

It is because of these different purposes that exterior walls are well insulated with different layers of insulating materials.

This makes the installation of low voltage cables more complicated for a television install and makes virtually impossible getting accurate location of the wooden stud by the stud finder.

Gaining Total Understanding of all Types of Walls

It is advised that additional considerations and precautions are taken before mounting a television on any type of walls.

Gaining a total understanding of all the kinds of walls that can be used to mount a television is a very important step.

However, keep in mind that this is only one piece of the puzzle since there are additional steps needed to be mastered before successfully completing a project of this kind.

Home Theater System Types https://ift.tt/2KIvSqd

Home Theater System Types

Home theater system types more than ever have nearly unlimited sources for top quality home theater entertainment.

More and more TV shows broadcast in HD, 4K, 8K and especially in surround sound.

There is an endless list of titles of CDs and DVDs, Blu-rays, 4K Blu-rays – which by the way is the best and latest possible HD performance in the market at the moment.

And the good news is you will not need a separate player for each type of disc, 4K Blu-ray player will play them all! but the biggest content is where you are now, online!

You can probably find almost anything you want including Hollywood features in HD with high-quality surround sound and Internet radio that let you customize playlists.

So how do you get this in your home theater?

First, broadband Internet connection looks for a speed of at least 5 Mb per second.

Then one of your home theater components should have Internet capabilities like a Smart TV, Blu-ray player, AV receiver or game console.

Note that many of these specifications can be seen in their features list and many also include direct access to popular online services that connect directly to the Internet or your home network so a computer is not necessary even if your other components do not have net access built-in!

There are many internet-enabled devices available that will provide it.

Think of them as doorways to huge entertainment stores that will let you shop from the couch some offer access to multiple services like Netflix, Facebook, Hulu or Amazon Prime while others are dedicated to one service online entertainment which is evolving very rapidly.

Faster connections new technologies and expanded capabilities, your home theater installation is a key to online exploring.

Types of Home Theater Audio System

You can choose from the following basic types of home theater audio systems:

Home theater in a Box (HTIB) Systems

Usually five surround sound speakers, a subwoofer, and a disc player/amplifier. Sold as a unit, in one box (hence the name). Includes all wiring.

Soundbars

A long, thin bar containing several loudspeaker units.

Offers virtual surround sound. Usually designed for mounting on a wall below a flat-panel TV, which sometimes can be synchronized with a wireless subwoofer that can be placed anywhere around the allowed connectivity range.

Component Systems

Your choice of an audio/video (A/V) receiver, speakers, and any source components (such as a 4K Blu-ray player).

Separates

Component systems with separate preamplifier/processor and power amplifiers that replace the receiver.

Which should you choose? Well, your considerations should include:

Your Budget

Sound systems are available in a range of prices; here are general guidelines.

Price Ranges

$200–$1,000: Home theater in a box (HTIB) systems. A few deluxe models are priced much higher. HTIB systems usually have small speaker systems.

$250–$2,000: Soundbars offer an alternative when you simply do not have space for a surround sound system. Many include a separate wireless subwoofer.

$1,000–$3,000: Component home theater systems, based on an A/V receiver.

$3,000 and above: Component home theater systems with top-of-the-line receivers or preamplifier/amplifier separates, and large speakers.

Essentially, for all equipment, more money can buy more features and higher maximum listening levels.

If you’re planning a component system, save about 50 percent of your budget for the speakers.

Your Room

Where you plan to set up your system can dictate what you’ll need. A large speaker system can overwhelm a small room. And a soundbar will not be able to fill a large room with sound. When planning, remember to prepare routes for the wires to the surround speakers, furniture, and electrical power.

The Right System for Your Room

Here are some equipment guidelines for room sizes and functions:

Dorm room or similar: 

Look for HTIB systems or a soundbar. 

Component systems with small speakers may also be suitable.

Apartment living room:

HTIB, soundbar, or small component system. 

This will depend on how well the system fits with your furniture (and your neighbors).

Larger living room: 

Component system. 

To create a separate home theater area in the room, an HTIB or soundbar may be adequate.

Den or “man cave”: 

Component system. 

Create a dream system just for you.

Dedicated home theater room: 

Design the best component system you can fit and afford. 

The ideal is to have a dedicated home theater room, where a home theater system is installed and you will enjoy.

Multiple Home Theater System Types

Since there are multiple home theater types, it can be confusing to find the appropriate home theater system that fits all the specific needs, bugets, prices, and room layouts.

However, understanding how these systems work and their main applications help gain greater insights about how they can be included in our living spaces.

DIY Surround Sound Audio System http://bit.ly/2MaQ5cp

DIY Surround Sound System

The idea of whether or not to install your surround sound audio system yourself has come to your mind and maybe against all common sense advice it has landed on deaf ears or maybe you have stubbornly decided to address this DIY home installation project by yourself.

Good for you! you go! You start by watching a DIY speaker calibration video on Youtube. Then decide to explore your sizzling home attic just to find out that it looks like more like an alien planet with all the structured cabling that you do not know what it does.

It Is Not Rocket Science but It Is Hard to Professionally Install a Home Theater System

Then, the horrible picture of your lower part of your body hanging from the ceiling crosses your mind and you maybe realize that it is going to take a lot more than what you originally thought to properly install the home theater system.

You re-evaluate the idea of hiring a home theater professional installer but still push ahead and tell yourself this is not rocket science, anyone can do it, it is just cables, an audio and video receiver and some speakers and a subwoofer.

A Home Theater Installation Company Can Install The Speakers, Cables and Audio Receiver for You

Where to really start this home theater project clouds your mind. Then once again, a second thought about the idea of maybe the smart decision is to reconsider all the hard work needed, all the tools necessary to get it done right, all the technical aspects to evaluate when installing the speakers and the receiver so maybe then you search online for reliable and professional home theater installation service by a reputable company that can install you speakers, speaker cabling and your audio and video receiver. 

Then at that moment, you are realize that the sales guy at the home theater store possibly made you purchase a home theater audio system that may be too advanced, technologically speaking, than what you initially thought and it may be an impossible task to install it.

Do It Yourself

Protect the furniture

Then you finally make up your mind and decide you can do it. You start by actually pre-ing the work area to protect your furniture from any accidents and moving all the heavy furniture out of the way before beginning the actual installation process.

Read The User’s Manual

Then you open the user’s manual for more specific clues that likely came along with the home theater audio system package you purchased and 200 pages later after trying to read the instructions in Spanish, French, Japanese, Portuguese and Korean you finally land on the pages that are in English.

Speaker Installation

Place The Speakers Correctly

We highly advise when installing a audio system is to keep in mind that with a surround sound audio system or a surround system installation nothing at all is going to work if the folks seating in the room do not get that immersive feeling an audio system delivers by locating the speakers correctly which varies depending of the room layout.

Install The Speaker Cables Inside The Wall

After several hours stuck in the attic breathing in all that insulation (and wondering if you are scratching more than your pooch since the fiberglass is all over your neck and arms). You manage to safely install all the speaker cables inside the wall without breaking a water pipe, burning the house, or cutting the romex cables (power cables) and or the alarm cables for the alarm system. Now are ready to to connect the audio and video receiver. But wait there’s more! how do I install my in-ceiling in-wall speakers you ask yourself.

In-wall and On-wall Speaker Installation

You proceed to make several more trips to the attic, then you realize the speakers need to be perfectly aligned and symmetry is important for optimal audio performance. You start by measuring the room and then continue by measuring the ceiling from some reference points that you think may work. Then, after a little prayer, you end up with a ceiling that now has a few extra speaker holes that make it look more like swiss cheese as you tell yourself “Everything is okay because you finally installed the speakers” (as you now you realized you now are gonna have to call a painter who is gonna have to fix the holes, re-texture and repaint the entire ceiling. Now you finally move to connect the audio and video receiver while you clean all that drywall dust and insulation from your eyes.

AV Receiver Installation

Placement of The AV receiver

You may start by placing the audio and video receiver in the entertainment center or in the AV rack. Then you realize that somehow now you need to run the oxygen free speaker cables inside the wall.

The Back of The AV Receiver

You start by quickly visually inspecting the back of the audio video receiver. You tell yourself “what happened to the IN and OUT inputs” You proceed by wondering “What’s with RS232, ARC, HDMI, Assignable, Monitor and all these colorful RCA ports?” then you say “Where are my connections for my white, red and yellow cables?” “Was I supposed to run an internet line to this receiver? should I call my internet service provider since this needs to be connected to the internet?”

Where Do I Connect the Speakers?

Then you try to connect your speaker cables to the speaker ports but you are not sure which cable goes where and why you have more speaker posts than the number of speaker lines.

5.1 Surround Sound Receiver?

Once you have the amplifier connected you begin connecting the speakers. If you went with the standard 5.1 home theater stereo system the receiver should have 6 speaker ports consisting of 2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, 1 center speaker and 1 subwoofer.

Positioning 5.1 Speaker System

A 5.1 receiver is a decent entry level audio receiver. You begin searching for all the guidelines for the positioning of the 6 speakers for a 5.1 sound system as well as possibly those instructions to expand the secondary zone later.

5.1 Speakers and The Space Between the Rear and Front Speakers?

It is important to keep in mind that with a 5.1 AV receiver you want to have enough separation between the rear speakers as well as front speakers to let the audio waves expand. And remember that the front speaker go where the screen is and the rear speakers or surround speakers go in the back of the room.

7.1 Audio System?

If the receiver you bought allows you to install additional speaker and you are at that point. Think about upgrading from a 5.1 to a 7.1 surround sound system or maybe use the audio and video receiver as a 5.1.2 Atmos system. If you decide to go for a 7.1 system then you will need to additionally install the 2 middle speakers in the middle of the room to obtain that extra layer of audio delivered by those to additional channels of audio.

Zone 2?

Guess what! maybe the sales person at the home theater store sold you a receiver that had an additional zone since you mentioned you may add an extra audio zone when you where you done mastering installing your home audio system and he simply could not pass the extra commision and the pat on the back from the store manager by up-selling you the most expensive receiver in the store.

AVR with All The Whistles?

Particularly since you are a rookie, you thought you were saving money by installing it yourself and specially since this is your very first audio system. You went ahead and purchased a super advanced AV receiver that comes with Atmos and Bluetooth capabilities, WiFi, online apps to connect to Spotify, Pandora and XM Internet radio plus all the whistles.

The Audio and Video Receiver Comes with a Several Ports

Then you realize that the AVR has a lot of ports! yes a lot! and now wonder if you are using the correct slots. Fortunately, a lot of devices have the ‘slots’ properly tagged depending of the different functions they provide.

TV Installed On The Wall or Projection System with My Audio System?

Positioning of the speakers is crucial and depends of the room layout, placement of the projection screen is important when installing an audio system and applicable if the audio system will be integrated with a video system. Do not what a video system is? basic installation of a video system can be a projection screen or a television. One of our main specialities is providing the best TV installation service all over Houston. While these really are not excessively complex installations you will be blown away by the amount of people who do not know if they want to have their sound system integrated with a television mounted on a wall using a low profile tv mount or a projector screen with a projector.

Spending Money in an Audio System

If you are making the investment in an audio system and then think a DIY surround sound audio system is for you and a DIY project for the weekend is suitable for you. Then, please put in the time read the user’s manual, protect your furniture, place the speakers correctly, install the speaker cables inside the wall, learn how to connect the av components that need to be connected to the audio and video receiver, understand the basic differences between a 5.1 or a 7.1 system, know if you would like to integrate a video system with your audio system and try to spend the money wisely to get your money’s worth from your investment. Now you can kick back, relax and appreciate your brand new surround sound system.

  This is all the information that a power relocation kit is useful for. Hiding the ugly cables, especially for in-wall concealment or power plug relocation can be very misleading when a wall is not prewired by the home builder for a TV installation. We hope that this will help you to better understand how to request the installation of a kit that meets National Electric Codes and UL standards. And how to get an project done that does not become a fire hazard.
