Why can't I hear sound from my rear speakers (4.1 and 5.1 Systems)?

Lowyat.NET -> FAQ for Edifier Speakers

First, make sure your sound card supports surround sound 4.1. A surround sound card should have a front and rear speaker jack.

What's that swishing sound I hear in my rear speakers when I play back a surround program?

Surround Associates - Specializing in all aspects of surroun...
That's the steering system of the Dolby Pro Logic decoder in your receiver extracting the rear channel information. Because the process is very phase dependant, the swishing sound (phase shift) can be evident during action scenes with a lot of panning. The latest Pro Logic II is less susceptible to this effect.

Question: When a sound system says it has "5.1" or "6.1" speakers, what does that mean?

Advanced Home Audio
Answer: The number before the period is the total number of surround channels besides the subwoofer. You will want one speaker for each channel for the best surround effects. The number after the period signifies the number of subwoofers (usually 1). In a 5.1 system you'll have a center speaker, 2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, and a subwoofer. A 6.1 system will have 2 fronts, 2 rears, a center front, a center rear, and a subwoofer.

Isn't it frustrating to a child to use auditory only when they cannot hear well?

Helen Beebe Speech and Hearing Center - Frequently Asked Que...
Yes, it is sometimes frustrating. However, it is that very frustration that is the motivation for the child. Parents must realize that sometimes providing the answer is actually providing disabling help. When the child is struggling to understand or wants to communicate something, that is the teachable moment. We teach parents how to seize that moment and make it work for the benefit of their child. When a child is born the brain is not fully developed.

E. How do you remove the rear speakers / amp assembly?

Frequently Asked Questions
I just removed one yesterday from the junk yard. It's the same procedure Matt D listed below. Just remove the the rear seat enough to lift the rear deck lid up around the speakers. There are three clips and three 8 mm bolts. I removed all three bolts and two clips. Then I went to the trunk and carefully pulled the speaker and amp assembly down. If you simply need to remove the speaker, that is even easier and can be done solely from the trunk. - /Bryan (91 SE), 6/16/01.
