7 1 Channel audio Surround Sound systems

7.1 Surround Sound Systems

7.1 channel audio systems is the modified version of 6.1 channel and plus provide additional realistic experience than 6.1 setup. at home this organization splits the single rear-hub amp into private not here- and moral-rear surround. These systems are not a stanch discrete 7.1 channel system to the same degree 7.1 formats don’t at this time exist. In a true discrete 6.1 surround method, the back center surround attitude is separate from the surround not here (SL) and surround right (SR) positions. A 7.1 channel system uses   matrixes extended surround wherever the not here-back and right-back (rear-inside surround) multichannel are blended at once and stored. The assembly of a 7.1 setup is agreed voguish the Picture under.

Auto Sound Systems are an Investment in your Car Make it Great

For those who love tunes and the ability to take them along wherever you may roam, there are some great auto sound systems that allow you to basically plug in your favorite tunes to play as you go. It doesnt really matter which style of MP3 player you use, most of the newer auto sound systems at least have the ability to read and translate the material from these players into great music for you to enjoy on your ride by simply plugging your MP3 player into the car stereo.

Many of us find that lugging around an MP3 player with all of our favorite tunes (or at least most of them-with up to 40 gigs of hard drive space it might take a while to fill completely) is much easier and more practical than attempting to lug around a huge case of CDs. It is also great for those of us who find ourselves disappointed when we purchase CDs only to find that we really only like one or two songs. Now we can simply download the songs we know and love while avoiding those we are uncertain about or at least waiting until more songs come out before deciding whether or not to purchase the entire collection of songs. Having an auto sound system that allows you to enjoy the convenience of simply plugging in either your MP3 player or a memory card or stick in order to have your favorite songs at your finger tips at all times is fantastic.

I dont know about you, but I am absolutely hooked on audio books. I love to read and find so little free time in which to get my feel of the latest and greatest best seller. Audio books allow me to hear the stories Ive been eagerly awaiting at my convenience and in my SUV as Im making my daily commute or running errands. These books are also a great way to enjoy long car trips. You can even check your local library in order to find an excellent selection.

I typically try to find stories that might interest the children on long car rides as well (such as the Harry Potter books or The Polar Express). This instills a love of reading in them and I dont have to worry about the stray grown up word that some audio books contain. Good auto sound systems not only play great music but also sound wonderful when it comes to the spoken word as well. This is not only true when it comes to books on tape, CD, or MP3 but also talk radio and national news stations as well.

When you begin your search for your next auto sound system make sure you consider all the possible features you may wish to include. You can find sound systems today that include GPS, DVD players, navigational tools, CD players, MP3 players, satellite radio receivers and countless other nifty features. Choose the auto sound system that will suit your needs and interests best and enjoy it for as long as you can. A good sound system is something that will stay with your car, truck, or SUV so it is best to make that particular investment long before you plan to trade your vehicle in on another. At the same time a good auto sound system can be an excellent incentive to hold onto your vehicle a little while longer.

22W Amplifier for 12V Power Supply Systems

This is a 22-W Amplifier schema that is designed for or 12-V DC power supply Systems. There are many application for  this schema,  such as in car audio  application. In car electrical  power supply system, the 12V power supply will be provided by the host vehicle’s battery. 

The capacitor C3 is used to give ripple rejection, since noisy power supply voltage is common in automotive electrical system. The power supply noise signal on car power supply is decoupled by the capacitors C2 and C1.  Smaller capacitor C2 is needed to decouple the high frequency noise, since the larger cap (C1) usually has high equivalent series inductance that prevent the high frequency noise  (such as glitch or spike) to be bypassed. 

The capacitors C5 couple the incoming audio signal to IC1 while decoupling static DC offset. For better bass response, this schema prevent rolling off of the low audio frequencies by choosing a relatively large capacitance for small signal, 10μF capacitors. Here is the schematic diagram of the  schema.

 22W Amplifier for 12V Power Supply Systems Circuit Diagram

This schema prevent power supply pop noise by muting the amplifier at the power-up. The mute input (pin 14) is fed by capacitor C6 and Resistor R1, giving delay on power-up which prevent  turn-on pop. This  R/C time constant gives about 1.4s delay to keep the output muted,  enough to make sure the amplifier reach the stable state after powered up.  

About how this muting works, the amplifier will be ON if pin 14 has at least 8.5 V. The chip will remain in muted condition if the voltage at this pin is below 3.3V.  This input pin need very low current consumption, only about 100 pA for standby (muted)  and around 40 pA when active. The R1 values must be no larger than 100,000  Ω. The R1/C6 constant should be on the second order. If time constant is too short, the turn-on pop will still be heard, but too long  time constant will give unpleasant delay.
