Two-Channel Audio

What is Two-Channel Audio?

Two-Channel Audio when set-up correctly is the way the artists originally intended their audience and or listeners to hear their music. The speakers are positioned at an equal distance apart within the parameters of the room and the perfect distance from where the listener will be seated. Two channel is known as left-channel and right-channel. Adding other speakers around the room for movies is a distraction from the music tracks or albums. Those tracks are laid to engage the audience in the movie and excitement of action.
