What is Surround Sound, and why you want?

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced audio technophile, this article is for you. Take a few minutes to review the basics of surround sound, and the underlying principles. If you are new to surround sound, this will help you understand the concept. It will also refresh the memory of those who are already in the know. These are the basics of sound.

Mono is single channel and unidirectional. Basically, this means that your audio is all filtered down into an apartment a single channel. All elements of the recording are mixed in a single source, which seemed from the same source, no matter where you're standing in the room. This old school children.

Stereophonic sound is reproduced through two channels and is considered superior to monophonic sound. You can tell his stereo, because the sounds come from different is pregnant. This type of sound gives the feeling of being there during the recording. The best example of this is listening to a recording the symphony, where different band members are located in different parts of the room. The strings are here, and the horns are there.

Surround sound has been developed by Dolby in the early 1970s and first used in movies like "Tommy" and "Meetings of the Third Kind. "The process encapsulates Dolby four-channel audio, center left, right, rear, and a ghost. The reason it is called phantom center, because it is essentially a mixture of left and right front channels. This gives the listener the impression of being surrounded by sound, hence the name surround sound.

Dolby Surround has evolved considerably in recent years. Dolby 5.1 bar is by far the most common. Dolby 5.1 is similar to a traditional surround sound, but it is still down and turned into more distinct channels. Dolby 5.1 increases the scope of sound by adding rear stereo sound and a dedicated subwoofer channel. The result is a far superior surround sound experience. You not only hear surround sound, but you feel, too!

Technology is constantly changing and the market offers many options surround sound. This article is not complete by any means, and only serves as a primer on the basics. Consult your local supermarket for electronics technology.

ICans Natural Surround Sound MP3 Headphones $129 The specially developed iCans establishes a new sound standard for portable sound devices. These headphones are designed to be small for use with the iPod and any other MP3 or audio players but they are developed to sound big especially with mobile players! Are you asking yourself how this is possible? This new standard combines natural surround sound and safer hearing for portable headphones. ULTRASONE has taken technology developed for larger professional studio headphones and equipped the mobile iCans with functional S-Logic™ Natural Surround Sound. This technology enables you to listen to the music your iPod or MP3 player includes as if you are listening to speakers several meters away. The S-Logic™ technology also allows an up to 40% lower dB output (3-4 dB) for the same loudness sensation. This may significantly reduce the risk of hearing damage – an absolute must if you spend a lot of time in headphones. As already mentioned, the patented S-Logic™ technology has been implemented as standard. But that´s by far not all the iCans offers! The other feature of the iCans is the patented ULTRASONE ULE technology. ULE stands for Ultra Low Emission and cuts electro-magnetic emissions produced by most headphones. On the basis of the ULE technology the iCans uses a MU Metal bufferboard which shields the mentioned radiation. As increasingly more and more young people wear headphones for many hours, this technology has become essential for everybody. As recommendations for the low-frequency magnetic emissions for headphones are still pending, we do consider this subject seriously and do minimize radiation as it is possible! ULE-technology The ULE technology was systematically developed by ULTRASONE for users who spend many hours in headphones. Most headphone drivers convert an electric signal into an acoustical signal, producing low-frequency magnetic fields. In response, ULTRASONE developed a special MU Metal shielding (ULE technology) to reduce the radiation by up to 98% compared to ordinary headphones. The ULE technology has stood the test of international review and is recommended by technical surveillance organisations. S-Logic™ Natural Surround Sound Through the S-Logic™ Natural Surround Sound technology the usual headphone sound will be moved out of the head in the room around you. The sound is no longer locked in, but appears broad and detached. Directions and distances can be heard and perceived – it’s just like being in a live concert. For this new technology additional equipment is not required. How does this technology work? S-Logic™ sends music around your head not just into it, because this technology uses decentralized driver positioning. Did you know that all of you use and need the outer ear for your three-dimensional understanding to define the direction and distance where a sound comes from? Instead of hitting the inner ear directly, with S-Logic™ the signals are reflected off the surface of the outer ear in different di

Ultrasone Hfi-450 S-Logic Surround Headphones Black $99.99 Affordable Ultrasone HFI-450 headphones use the same S-Logic Surround Sound technology found in Ultrasone’s legendary HFI-15G headphones. The closed-back HFI-450 offers the same powerful, clear sound reproduction that Ultrasone users have come to expect. Entry-level HFI-450 headphones are specifically for audiophiles on a budget who still want the famous Ultrasone sound for home and studio. Ultrasone S-Logic Natural Surround Sound It’s just like being in a live concert! Ultrasone’s S-Logic Natural Surround Sound creates a 3-D sound field with proven psychoacoustic principles. No additional equipment is required. Sound reflecting off of the outer ear helps us to localize its source. The Ultrasone S-Logic system directs sound to the outer ear before it enters the auditory canal, creating natural 3-dimensional sound. Instead of trying to squeeze a band (or an entire symphony orchestra) inside your head, Ultrasone HFI-450 headphones immerse you in a rich, natural musical environment. And they do it without any artificial echo, time delay, or digital processing. Safer hearing Ultrasone S-Logic not only creates natural surround sound, it also reduces sound pressure levels as much as 40% (3-4 dB), while maintaining the same perceived loudness. Listening at lower volumes without losing the perception of volume increases listening pleasure while reducing the risk of ear damage. You’ll have hours of fatigue-free listening. (However, that’s not an excuse to crank it even more. To prevent hearing damage, Ultrasone advises you always to listen at lower volume.) Even at very low volume levels, Ultrasone HFI-450 headphones still deliver the same spacious sonic effect, so you to hear every sound as though you were there when it was recorded. For even greater safety in long listening sessions, Ultrasone employs a special MU Metal shielding (ULE), for Ultra Low Emissions that reduces electromagnetic radiation by 98% as compared to conventional headphones.Three-dimensional Surround SoundSafer hearingReduced magnetic field emissions
