Surround sound in stereo amplifiers?
a long time, i had some magazines called "stereo review"!
one article that i test and works very fine.... but in my words, i don't have the magazine no more! in stereo amplifiers we have the right and left channels, with one speaker in each. dhahh! each speaker have the positive (+) and negative (-) bornes plugged in the positive (+) and in the negative (-) of each channel from the amplifier...(dhahhh again). with 2 more speakers, (read the hints in the end of this post) we can get a incredible surround sound! ---> jump the NEGATIVES (-) of this news speakers TOGETHER! --->then take one POSITIVE (+) of this speakers and plug in the POSITIVE (+) of the RIGHT channel from the amplifier. --->take the other POSITIVE (+) of the other speaker and plug in the POSITIVE (+) of the LEFT channel from the amplifier. how it works....example: if the right channel have the guitar, the left channel have the drums and in both have the voice. in the new surround speaker you will get the guitat and drums and a little reverberation (if any) from the voice! this new surround speakers only sound the differences from the channels! everything that is common in the 2 channels,don't will be sound in the surround, right? :wink: little hint: you can use only one speaker ---> only IF the impedance of this speaker have the DOUBLE impedance of the minimal impedance of the amplifier use! if the amplifier support minimal 4 ohms per channel, the speaker needs 8 ohms minimal. sorry the "redundance" but is to be it clear! go ahead, i use it from 30 years ago... a long time ago when dolby surround don't exist! :) |
I have used that too for the last 20+ years :mrgreen:
It's called "Phantom Center Chanel" :D -kwag |
really?
you too? 8O i was forgot the name... "Phantom Center Chanel" ! :D is surprising don't ? :wink: |

You hear things that are not present in either the left or the right channel. I guess it can be called artefacts of phase cancellation and phase inversion :cool: -kwag |

"I guess it can be called artefacts of phase cancellation and phase inversion" exact!!!!! like a "differencial amplifier" using integrated circiut operacional amplifier! (if i wrote right) everything equal is cancelled! 8O see? eletronic is like "fever"! :lol: |

You mean "Differential OP Amp" :cool: A 741 OP AMP IC Chip, if I recall the correct number :mrgreen: I used that chip so many times :!: Also the 555 timer and the 565 PLL :cool: -kwag |

Hey jorel, I guess you were one of the kids in the block who would tune in on AM stations,
using a Germanium diode hooked up to a small coil/capacitor tuned tank circuit and Crystal earphones, right :?: :rotf: :beard: ( Because I did too :!: :lol: ) -kwag |

:lol: :lol: :lol: Germanium diode is used in one "dobrator" for guitars. if i change for silicium (all models) the circuit don't work! small coil/capacitor tuned tank circuit do miracles! my stereo Crystal earphone is broken but i have one mono that never was used! hey,this is the proove that i'm old! 8O :lol: |

Or using a VTVM instead of a regular voltmeter, for precise measurements. Damn, where's my old Heathkit VTVM. :roll: :lol: Yes, I guess we're old :mrgreen: -kwag |

link with illustrations and more big details,
now you can do it easy.... http://home.earthlink.net/~kantack/surround2.htm :wink: thanks to LTR12101B that found this link after i posted the same in dvdrbase! :) |
That's exactly it, jorel :D
