The speaker setup in a home theater audio system is crucial to an entertainment center’s performance in your household.  A lot of experts agree that the ideal speaker setup should try to avoid ceiling installation for the primary three front speakers.  Additionally, these speakers should be angled with a proper mounting bracket, if they have to be set up above ear level.

You should also avoid buying cubed speakers which may cost lesser but are less than ideal as part a home theater audio system. These little black or white cubes are also less likely to be compatible with your entertainment room’s aesthetics, and you can easily find speakers that integrate better with interiors.

If you already have cubed speakers, you still can make the most of these home theater audio system components.  First, ensure that these speakers are connected to their corresponding bass module connections.   Then, check if each speaker level connection from the bass module is linked to the corresponding receiver connection (i.e. left rear to left rear; center channel to center channel). Also, have an RCA cable from the sub out of the receiver be connected to the sub in of the bass module.  After this, you will have to set in the receiver’s bass management all of the speakers to “Large†and the subwoofer to “Yesâ€.  With these steps, an appreciable performance could be derived from your cubed speakers, but consultation with your dealer or the speaker manufacturer may still be needed when these procedures fail or you are in doubt of any of the connections made.

A car audio show is one of the most thrilling things in car audio. They bring together people of different backgrounds who share a common love for car audio and competition.

There are four major car audio show competition organizations. If you think competing is right for you then these shows are among the best to attend. Not all car audio show organizations are available in all areas.

Car Audio Show Organizations

1. IASCA

it is the oldest car audio competition organization and also the largest. IASCA has traditionally been associated with sound quality competitions. Recently they have added the IDBL and SPL category as well.

2. USAC

USAC has become a major player in the “sound off” scene. USAC also has two competition formats on sound quality (basic and advanced categories) and sound pressure level.

3. DB Drag Racing

It was started and led by veteran competitor and sound off legend, Wayne Harris. DB Drag Racing is just what the name implies. The measurements that are displayed on a large drag racing type look like a tree and are very exciting to watch too.

4. MECA

MECA is the new thing. MECA classes its competitors by the extent of vehicle modification. They have Amateur, Stock, Modified, Custom and Master categories. They also offer SPL classes in each category.

5. SLAP

SLAP is an acronym for “Sound Looks And its Performance.” SLAP has three divisions. Among those, two are audio related. SLAP dB is the SPL competition and is classed by the total square inches of your woofers rather than power.

If you think you have what it takes to compete, check if you qualify. However, my advice is that you first take out time to witness whichever car audio competition you intend to participate in. Also take out time to read magazines that showcase different competition setups.
