The audio equipment segment confirms that modern technologies are changing not only the functionality, but also the meaning of many familiar concepts. So, quite recently, home theaters were associated with complexes in the form of a bundle of audio and video systems. Today, this concept often means multi-channel acoustics, equipped with a modern optional. The latest technological trend that has firmly established itself in the market has become home theaters with wireless acoustics, which greatly simplify approaches to connecting audio systems. Similar devices appeared several years ago, but only recently wireless modules have approached the traditional wired circuit in terms of sound transmission quality.
Wireless connection
In organizing the operation of a wireless multi-component home theater complex, you can go one of two ways: use an integrated module in the form of a receiver or select a specialized, but separate signal transmission point. In the first case, Bluetooth is used, which can be equipped with a home theater system forwireless connection. Therefore, it is important to immediately provide for the inclusion of this module. With its help, acoustics are connected not only to the TV panel, but also to game consoles, as well as other components of the audio system.
The second option provides for a more thorough and profitable connection in terms of signal transmission quality. In this case, a special router is used that supports the wireless information transfer function. Some playback devices are equipped with a WLAN module (comes as an addition to wired channels). Sometimes there are even Wi-Fi receivers that provide key protection. One way or another, using a LAN or WLAN adapter, you can connect the network output of the Hi-Fi equipment to a transmitter that will be connected to the router. In this configuration, home theaters with wireless acoustics provide the highest quality sound, which, in principle, is possible without a conventional cable.
Hardware setup
Both with a router and with an integrated Bluetooth module, the system must be properly calibrated to provide maximum performance. At the same time, you should not initially refuse to communicate via Bluetooth due to its loss to adapters in terms of sound quality. Such a configuration can justify itself if the home theater setup is focused on connecting a smartphone. The transfer process must use the A2DP profile intended for audio distribution. Supportsound quality will be possible using the license-free SBC audio codec. However, its capabilities with a bitrate of 128 kbps will not suit every music lover.
In the case of adapters, it remains only to choose the optimal communication channel, after making sure that all components included in the system support a specific connection format. Such schemes of operation can be inconvenient due to the inclusion of additional devices in the complex, but in terms of quality, this is the best wireless scheme that a home theater can operate on. The overview below will help you make the right choice in favor of equipment that supports cableless connectivity.
Reviews about Sony's BDV-N9100W
The set of the Japanese manufacturer includes traditional components, represented by four column columns, a subwoofer, a center channel, a radio set-top box and a head part. First of all, users note the quality implementation of the assembly - all components are made at a high level. As for the connection method via the radio channel, it does not cause any complaints, which, however, is explained by the combined method of communication. Still, the Sony brand home theater system provides for the use of a wired connection of the front satellites. Nevertheless, the owners emphasize the full possibility of operating the system in conjunction with mobile devices using Wi-Fi.
Reviews on the Philips CSS7235Y model
Manufacturer Philips still bet on Bluetooth withsupport for streaming music. Realizing that the module is not able to fully embody the advantages of high-quality wireless sound, the developers have implemented several technologies designed to increase the basic acoustic properties. And users highly appreciated the result of the work done. In particular, the Philips home theater is praised by many for its use of Clear Sound crystal sound technology, which allows you to reproduce every note with maximum accuracy in original quality.
It also notes the possibility of connecting a smartphone to the system, but the NFC system will also be supported, which facilitates the management process. That is, the mobile device in this case acts not only as a participant in the system that broadcasts sound, but also as a means of control. True, the Philips home theater in this configuration is still not able to fully reveal its acoustic potential at the proper level.
LHB675 reviews from LG
LG has also implemented a pretty powerful component base, which has caused a lot of positive feedback. In terms of wireless quality, there is also a variety of features and capabilities. For example, LG's LHB675 home theaters with wireless speakers are equipped with improved Bluetooth Standby data transfer technology. Its feature is to support the standby mode. According to users, this development allows you to use the basic default settings, without the needconnections for each session separately.
Conclusion
Acoustics in modern models provides for working with large amounts of information, which allows it to provide high-quality clear sound. And the regularly increasing requirements for communication tools that provide interaction between different devices are quite understandable. In this regard, home theaters with wireless speakers seem out of place, since the lack of high-quality cables will not allow you to play sound in a clear and voluminous form. Nevertheless, manufacturers are increasing the quality level of the technical performance of modules that broadcast an audio signal, which, of course, affects the result. This is evidenced by bundles of adapters with routers designed specifically for audio signals, as well as Bluetooth modules that also optimize wireless acoustics control processes.
