Speaker types
An active speaker system must have its own power source. A home audio system does not require active
speakers because the receiver provides amplification.
A stereo speaker set is a left-right, two channel speaker system. A multi-channel audio speaker has a left-
right front and left-right rear channel, and it may include a subwoofer and a center speaker. Side speakers are
included in a more advanced system. A subwoofer provides enhanced bass sounds.
".1" indicates a subwoofer. For instance, 7.1 channels refers to an eight-speaker mode and uses two front
speakers (left-right), two rear speakers (left-right), two side speakers (left-right), a center speaker, and a
subwoofer.
