Some speakers have offset tweeters or other drivers. To make the sound projection as balanced as possible, they are sold in mirror image pairs.
Some cheaper speaker systems are sold as left and right pairs because they come with a special connector or pair of connectors to the amplifier so that the user does not mix up which speaker goes on which side.
Most computer speakers are sold as left and right pairs because they have fixed wiring and are connected to plugs for the computer that cannot be reversed.
Connecting speaker leads to both right outputs, A&B, will only play the right channel of the sound (in mono) when both pairs of speakers, A and B are turned on. This won't damage the amplifier or speakers, but you won't be listening in stereo.
If you have a 4-channel stereo installed, then there is a point. The door speakers would be front, left & right channels, the parcel shelf speakers would be rear, left & right.
Home stereo systems are usually built to work with speakers that have an impedance of 8 ohms, Car stereos are usually adapted to power 4 ohm speakers. You need to get this right if you want to keep your amplifier happy.
Basically, the difference between stereo speakers and mono speakers are that different sounds can come out of different speakers. For instance, if in a movie a gunshot was made to the right of the viewer, the sound would be made to come out of the right speaker as to give more of a feeling of being there.
They're both the same. A "channel" stereo receiver merely accepts a given number of channels (2,4,5, &tc.). A stereo receiver has 2 channels of audio output, left and right. A receiver marked as ___ channel receiver has the corresponding number of channels. For instance a 5 channel stereo receiver can play 5 different channels of audio through 5 speakers. If the receiver has a decimal, such as 5.1 or 7.1, that indicates that it has 5 or 7 channels of regular audio, plus 1 channel for subwoofer, making them 6 and 8 channels, respectively.
This is likely to be an unconventional solution to this problem, but you could use a small 2 channel mixer to get the signal levels right, assuming the stereo system outputs normal 1/8 signal or RCA.
Certainly, you can also use 2 mono amps to power left and right stereo channels. One for each channel. Using one mono amp for stereo results in a mono output though.
The positioning of in-wall speakers for maximum efficiency depends on the type of sound you want. For surround sound place the speaker to the left and right and precisely behind the main area. For stereo sound place the speakers to the right and left of system (stereo, tv, etc.).
Mono is a type of sound on a set of speakers. There are two, mono and stereo. Stereo is the opposite of mono, so say a person is speaking on the right side of the screen. In stereo, the speaker's voice comes from the right speaker. In mono, though, the speaker's voice comes out of both speakers. Most people prefer stereo because it makes the experience more realistic.
Regarding music: A stereo system has a stereo amplifier which has two output channels (left and right). The system has two speakers (left and right), and some kind of input device such as a turn table or a cd player or a radio tuner. The signal from the input device goes into the amplifier, it is amplified, and is heard through the two speakers.
dont know -------------------------------- EDIT: 2 Channel if really what its sounds like, 2 channels which means you have a Left + Right basically. 4 Channels is for 4 channels which like in a car would be Front Left + Right and Rear Left + Right. Reminder!!! Check RMS NOT max Power!!! -TheRamMan-
Stereo sound is a two-channel sound system designed to create the illusion of left-and-right depth to sound by recording two slightly different tracks and playing them back simultaneously. In this way, your ears can make your brain think that a noise is coming from the left or the right during a piece of music or action. More advanced "stereo" systems are Dolby digital stereo (optical two-channel), quadraphonic (4-channel), and Dolby 5.1 (5 channel with combination channel for bass).
