Wall Mount Speakers
December 28th, 2009 by AS

Many offices and homes have wall mount speakers with a high space flexibility and a very good integration in the background. The main flaw of conventional floor systems is that they occupy too much space in the room, not to mention that occasionally there are distortions of the sound because of the vibrations that could happen in the room. Wall mount speakers are not that exposed to these inconveniences because there is hardly any movement in the cones. Plus, there is no need for filters and the surround sound has a higher quality. There are several elements you should be careful with.

Fist of all, the power of the wall mount speakers should be well matched with that of the amplifier’s. The output power in the amplifier should also influence the choice of the speaker, or its power rating, to be more precise. Finally, the size of the wall mount speakers is decided according to the location or the space for which the audio system is designed. Do not believe that the size of the speakers has anything to do with the quality of the sound. Depending on the design, the mounted device will also have very small satellite speakers that are meant to cover the high or midrange frequencies.

Plus, wall mount speakers provide a certain flexibility for the change of the position which makes them more popular during the installation process. Moreover, you thus have the possibility to position the wall mount speakers in very hardly accessible places such as close to the ceiling or in corners at angles that could never be possible with other designs. For home theaters, in ceiling and wall mount speakers make the best choices because of the surround sound that can thus be achieved. There are some difficulties of installation when you don’t position the speakers into already existent holes.

For instance, you may have to cut the wall open, and you have to make sure that there are no support beams inside before proceeding. Then, how are you going to do the wiring, especially when you have to create a multi-room system? The size of the speaker and the hole you make should be well matched, and you can even consider hiring a professional to take care of the installation process. If you go for the do-it-yourself solution, you will need a drill, a keyhole saw, a head screwdriver, some magnetic chain and electrical tape. Do not forget about the speaker mounts either. Good luck!
