Question by Synergy9: Should all the speakers on a home theater system emit sounds?
I have the Coby 5.1 Channel home theater speaker system. I hooked it up but I only hear sound from the front left and front right speakers. Should I be hearing sound from the center and surround left and right speakers as well?
Best answer:
Answer by iMaginethis1
all depends on what settings are on. there should be a button on the actual reciever and the remote to switch the different types of sound that could be played and what speakers are to be used. ALTHOUGH, the reason you may have all of the speakers activated and you only hear audio from the from front left, middle, and front right, is because the channel or movie that you are playing does not have 5.1 audio. meaning only the front will work and possibly the back but it will play the exact same audio as the front only a lot quieter. every movie is now made at least 5.1 so no worries with that. television channels do not ALL include 5.1, but some may!
hope that helped a little!

Question by andrewfiero: Anyone know of an affordable home theater system with wireless rear speakers?
Long story short, I’m looking for a surround sound system with wireless rear speakers because I lease an apartment and don’t want to drill holes to hide the wiring from the front to the back of the room.
I know of some systems that have wireless rear speakers, but the cheapest one I’ve seen was a BOSE system for ,499 which is a bit much for an apartment. I don’t need it to be that powerful. I’ve got other tenants to contend with.
Any suggestions would be great.

Question by mcaf: How do I make the sound of my cable go through the home theater system speakers?
I just bought a new LG homje theater system. It is hooked up to my tv with an HDMI cable. I also have an xbox that is hooked up to my tv with a cable. How do I make the sound of my xbox and my cable come through my home theater speakers??

Answer by Texperson
If your home theater has true HDMI you can attach your cable box and xbox into the receiver’s HDMI inputs, then run one HDMI into your tv out of the receiver’s HDMI output. Then you just change inputs on the receiver for the items.
If it doesn’t have the HDMI hookups, then just run your HDMI for both things into the tv. Then run optical cables straight from the cable box into the receiver, bypass the tv, and do the same with the xbox. Turn off the tv’s sound. Choose the appropriate HDMI input on the tv and the optical input on the receiver as needed for each item.

Question by aimeymays3311: Can anyone tell me whether I can use speakers of a home theater system to hook up with regular receivers?
Speakers plus dvd player in a package like Pioneer HTS-950NXT – Home theater system cost less than a pair of good quality speakers. I have good main speakers. Just want to have speakers as Presence speakers for a Yamama system and want an extra subwoofer as an add-on to the main speaker and two surround speakers or surround back speakers. Thx

I have an HTIB system. It came with 5.1. Sounds good for HTIB too. I also have a 12″ Cerwin-Vega 4ohm (enclosed, for car use) hooked up to the subwoofer outlet (parallel) with the other HTIB woofer. They both work fine, producing good bass. The same can be done with the other speakers, if I so desired. The downfall is this, the more speakers connected, the hotter the system’s amplifier will get, as it is using more power to generate sound. If your main system has the proper amperage output, hook your speakers up. Enjoy the sounds. But, keep track of heat generated, as this is a good “feel” gauge on the power consumption of the system’s amplifier.

Question by bobber311: I’m hooking up a home theater system and I have 2 sets of speakers and i’m only gonna use 1 which one is best?
I’m not sure what makes a speaker better then another but I have 2 large speakers that I took from a previous stereo system that are 6 OHMS and 2 small speakers that are 8OHMS. Which speakers would give me the best overall sound for a home theater system??!
Best answer:
Answer by jaminlogic
Generally the bigger speaker would give you a more “fuller sound”. I’d hook up the small ones and then the big ones and compare with several types of music. Your ears will be the best judge on which pair is better.

Question by Fridaykiller: Are their better speakers then the Logitech z5500 for the same price for a home theater system?
Hey im getting a new plasma soon and was wondering speaker wise for my home theater system would the logitech z5500 speakers be the best for their price i dont want to pay more then $(AU) 400 are their any good 5.1 sorrund speakers for that price cheers for your help
Best answer:
Answer by home theater
Logitech z5500 speaker system is good and you will get these speakers within your range. It has a great sound with plenty of power and digital decoders built-in! it looks good and size, wonderful price. Overall, the quality of the sound that this speaker system produces is out of this world. You won’t find a better speaker system for the same price. but if you are willing to put up with them then I don’t think you will be disappointed.

Answer by Kyle L
Your center channel should be right under or over your TV, front speakers should be equal distance from the TV on each side, rear speakers should be (close to) equal distance on either side of where you will be sitting (your couch) and also pointed towards the TV to keep all the sound travelling to the same general area, and your sub woofer should be positioned on the floor off to the side but still pointing towards where you will be sitting.
