3.1 Speaker System + Home Theater Receiver

A 3.1 home theater system INCLUDES two floor standing tower speakers or a pair of smaller bookshelf speakers to function as the front left and right speakers, a center channel speaker for the dialogue, and a subwoofer for the low frequency bass, plus a surround sound receiver.

IT DOES NOT INCLUDE rear speakers for the surround sound effects.

You will need to supply or buy speaker wire, banana plugs, and a subwoofer cable separately unless noted otherwise.

Purchasing a 3.1 home theater bundle is a great choice for those who:

  • don’t want the hassle of running speaker wires from the front to the back of the room between the back of the receiver and two rear surround speakers.
  • have limited space, but still want the enhanced dialogue clarity and cohesive audio experience provided by a dedicated center channel speaker placed between left and right speakers as part of the “front stage”, plus a subwoofer to supply the deep bass.
  • listen to a lot of music but also demand dialogue clarity and deep bass when they watch shows and movies.
  • already own rear surround speakers preferably from the same brand, and want to set up a 5.1-channel surround sound system, or have their mind set on purchasing the rear surrounds separately.
