Home cinema is a term used for home entertainment electronics that offer high quality audio and visual performance, these are usually home cinema systems that offer surround sound, an amplifier and a DVD player but it can also include electronics such as high quality televisions and projectors. A home cinema system usually comprises a main unit that includes the amplifier and more often than not a DVD player, these look just like the standard DVD players and fit easily into any home entertainment set-up. They will then have five or more speakers that make up the surround sound environment, the two front speakers, the two rear speakers, the centre speaker and the subwoofer which provides all of the bass sound.

The two front speakers are just like normal speakers that are used with stereo Hi-Fi systems, they should be placed in each corner of the room in line with the television. The rear speakers should be placed in each corner at the back of the room, behind the listening position and provide the main surround sound effect as you will hear sound from behind you as well as from the front of the room. The fifth speaker is the centre speaker and this should be placed near the television as it provides most of the vocal sound, it should be placed near the television as it would seem strange for speech to come from anywhere other than the television. The subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room as the bass sound has no direction, it simply adds to the overall sound and has a great impact on deep sounds.
