A. Choose your speaker
Except k
nuit, all k
speakers can be used to build an elegant
home-cinema: don’t be fooled by their tiny size, they are able to
reproduce very clear dialogs as well as loud explosions.
Carefully position your speakers according to the home-cinema
standards :
-
2 lef and right speakers, like a stereo system
-
1 center speaker, that reproduces the dialogs
-
2 (5.1) or 4 (7.1) speakers, that make the surround ef ects
B. Add a subwoofer when needed
Home cinema ef ects require a lot of energy in the lows, so a
subwoofer is absolutely needed.
You have 2 possibilities:
-
Invisible sub, integrated in furniture : use 1 (<40m²) or 2 (>40m²)
k
subwoofer(s) and power them though a kreamp amplif er.
-
Free-standing subwoofer: Buy in the market the home-cinema
active subwoofer of your choice.
C. Associate the amplif er
Home-cinema needs a special amplif er called ‘home-cinema
receiver’, able to decode the cinema sound ef ects (HD Master,
Dolby Digital, DTS…). They can be found by any retailer. Any brand
is compatible, since their conf guration menus all of er the possibility
to set the speakers as ‘small’. Their tiny size is then taken into
account by the amplif er, which automatically routes the lows to the
subwoofer. Very few amplif ers have a sixth amplif ed output, that
allows to directly wire a k
passive subwoofer. This allows to build
an economical small system by get ing rid of the kreamp – please
ask for compatible models.
