Enhance your home audio experience with surround sound speakers.
I’ve seen after several years installing audio systems that the majority of people watch television without any “surround sound system.”
Surround Sound For Audiophiles
Most TV manufacturers design TVs with low-qualitybuilt-in speakers because audio fidelity is not what they are trying to sell.
But the truth is:
If you are an audiophile and appreciate “excellent quality sound,” a relatively inexpensive outlay can have a massive impact on your home theater experience.
2 Channels HiFi System
One of the simplest and often, most affordable options would be to use two tower speakers.
However, this isn’t a surround sound system by definition, but the two channels blasted through two high-quality speakers make a huge difference!.
But here is the deal:
“There are audio frequencies your brain can’t hear from standard TV speakers,” and those audio frequencies will fill the room.
And that’s the case if a wall mount is used to mount the TV in the media room.
Which, by the way, will add plenty of good quality audio which in return will add to the cinema feel.
Many people achieve this by merely sending the sound through their Hi-Fihome audio system.
But you can also buy a separate AV receiver and two good quality speakers.
Affordable & Better Results
In this case, you can spend your budget on two decent quality tower speakers such as Martin Logan or Monitor Audio rather than spreading it over several lower quality speakers and generally get an unfortunate result.
You may want to add in a separate sub-woofer for the low audio channels.
Just remember.
Each Hi-Fi speaker already has a decent ability to cope with this job since its design comes with “these capabilities.”
(Note: The advantage of this system is that you won’t need to have wires running to the back of the room).
And even better, you won’t have speakers behind you of course.
But you will have powerful and good quality sound coming at you from the front speakers and bouncing off all the walls to fill the room.
Don’t spend too much of your budget on an audio receiver.
Instead, try to allocate most of it to the speakers as this is where you will notice the difference.
Simply put just a remote that operated everything perfectly.

Is there something you could learn from how they use the microphone?
Are the speakers before you having mic problems?
These are questions that are good to remember before it is your turn using the mic.
9. When It’s Time For You To Be Onstage
You’ve already tested the cordless microphone.
Don’t tap on it. Don’t blow into it. Don’t say, “Is this thing on?” Or, “Can you hear me?”
Just start talking.
Preparation loves destiny; it’ll be working just fine.
Don’t you know? You’ll soon find out.
Here is a good idea:
It’s a unique idea to have an assistant that can monitor the room and watch for things that aren’t right or can provide technical assistance in any circumstance.
10. Energize Your “Voice”
Here is how it works:
Speak the same as always but with energy.
Don’t speak into the microphone – talk past it.
Let the microphone overhear your conversation.
Speaking into the microphone often causes your Ps to “pop” in the speakers.
Adjust your “voice” and immediately, you’ll sound BETTER.
11. How To Handle “Questions” From The Audience
Want it or not, a member of the audience will have “questions” during your talk.
The critical factor to remember is to go back to the body position you were before the person talked.
For example:
If you were sitting and then you started to ask questions, then you have to stand up.
Address the questions and then return to your sitting position.
That communicates through body language that the unnecessary questions need to stop, and the presentation has to continue.
There are occasions where the attendee asking a question may need a wireless microphone. Have one ready
On the other hand:
You can also encounter the situation where someone that also has a microphone tries to help to answer the questions for you.
It’s okay to include everyone since that adds value and more credibility.
(Note: that if you don’t want anyone interfering with your presentation, it’s better to make sure that all additional microphones are OFF)
12. Keep It In Front Of You At All Times
If you are using a fixed wireless mic, that is on a stand or attached to a podium.
And in case you’re going to look to the right while speaking.
Turn your head to the right; you need first to move your body to the left since figuratively there is an imaginary line to your mic.
In fact:
Imagine there is a string between your nose and the microphone.
13. How To Adjust The Proper Height
Before your introduction to the audience, have someone stablish the proper microphone height:
Also, it helps to practice adjusting the body posture ahead of time.
(“be aware of the way you are looking while delivering your talk”).
Also, remember that some stands are fragile and can break when you are in front of your audience.
Once you start speaking: “Remove the wireless microphones from the stand and engage the audience by walking around the room.”
14. How To Adjust A “Gooseneck Attachment”
Here is the deal:
Do it while talking.
That’s right!
The sound of your voice will help you by covering any squeaking noise resulting from the gooseneck.
We all know it a “gooseneck attachment” is an unexpected problem sometimes.
And nobody wants to be EMBARRASSED about dealing with it.
15. Just Practice!
Which leads me to finalize with the essential piece of advice: “Speaking with a wireless microphone needs to become a natural part of you.”
Practice makes perfection, and attention to small details gives you a competitive advantage.
And as promised here are the bonus tips:
Bonus Tip #1: You Can Practice At A Toastmasters Club
There is nothing better than having an audience of peers how can provide you great feedback about your presentations.
Toastmasters is where you can polish your skills and advance your experience handling a mic.
Additionally, professional working adults will provide all the possible challenges you’ll face when using a microphone in a real-life presentation.
Bonus Tip #2: Don’t Shout To Your Audience
Many public speakers use wireless microphones but don’t know how to select the appropriate type, and mistakenly think they don’t need a wireless microphone.
“I’m a REAL speaker. I don’t need a wireless microphone. I’ll shout my speech!”
Don’t make that MISTAKE.
The “microphone” is your friend and allows you greater flexibility in your vocal variety.
And if you are delivering an important message, then a microphone is crucial.
Vocal variety adds spice to your words, and the audience needs to hear your punch-lines.
A microphone helps you meet both needs.
Bonus Tip #3: What To Wear
When you aren’t wearing the proper CLOTHING to accommodate a clip-on power pack can be an issue.
(Note: Some straps can be used to hold the power pack in place)
Bonus Tip #4: “Avoid Things And People”
Avoid hugging someone since they can unclip your power pack.
In other words, be aware of the things you are holding since they can disconnect the cords.
Bonus Tip #5: Don’t Wear It To The Bathroom Room
Well, this one I believe I don’t have to explain too much 🙂
Just make sure to turn the microphone off when using the bathroom…
… you don’t want to regret eating nachos and drinking beer for the rest of your life.
Bonus Tip #6: Look Like A Seasoned “Public Speaker”
Place the podium behind you, so it doesn’t stay between you and your audience.
And then as you are about to finalize your talk.
Move the stand back in front of you, and place the microphone where it was before you say your final words.
You’ll look like a “public speaker” trust me.
Bonus Tip # 7: Add “Audiovisual Enhancements”
Add “audiovisual enhancements” to your presentation to keep your audience engaged throughout your performance with your mic.
