Tired of paying upwards of $100.00 or more per month for a bunch of channels on Satellite TV you never watch? I was. I have dish network and I had the top 250 package with locals. With the product insurance and DVR fee I was paying around $105+ per month. Those clever dish network people have planned their packages so you have to subscribe to the highest basic package in order to get the channels most people like to watch.
How many times have you been watching your favorite DVD and had to continuously adjust the volume? Are you frustrated with not being able to clearly hear the dialogue over the sound track of the movie? You’re not alone. Relying totally on your TV speakers is the problem. Even though your TV may say “Surround Sound” or “Simulated Surround Sound”, its not surround sound! Why?? The answer is the movie you are watching is encoded with something called 5.1 Dolby Digital surround sound or better. Quite simply, this means the DVD was designed with 6 discrete audio channels. The channels consist of front left and front right, center, surround left and surround right. The “.1” refers to the ultra low frequency bass channel for a sub-woofer. Check out the diagram below. The sub-woofer is not shown in the diagram but would typically be located in the upper left corner of the room.
