DIY 5.1 Home Theater System 700watt RMS

Make you own high quality 5.1 Home Theater System which is 700 watts RMS. 5+1 channel. 5 channels are 100 watts each and subwoofer is 200 watts ((5*100w)+(1*200w)=700w) (Front- left, Front- right, Center, Surround- left, Surround- right, Subwoofer). It is remote controlled. It has 4 - L/R inputs(Stereo) and one 6 channel input. Among four inputs one is for USB/MP3 player with built in Bluetooth. It also has SD card slot, USB slot, Aux input and listen songs from your mobile through Bluetooth. I am not able to find any suitable cabinet for this amplifier. I purchased locally available metal box and I cut and installed all the components as per requirement.

Enjoy making it.

Subwoofer

I have two circuits. One is with TDA 7294 and another is TIP 142 and TIP 147 Transistors. Both work very well. I preferred TDA IC because all the remaining channels are with TDA and distortion will be less. In this two Ic's are combined as a bridge. I provided transistor circuit and also PCB. Use bigger heatsink and cooling fan for TDA circuit.

Differences --------------- TDA 7294 ----------------- Transistor Circuit

Quality ------------------------Good ---------------------Better than TDA 7294

Voltage range --------------(+/-35 v) ----------------------(+/-54 v) (Checked)

Heat dissipation -------------More --------------------------Very less

Distortion-------------------Very less----------------------------less

Alternate Amplifier Board

If you are new in making PCB's , better to buy assembled boards. Visit the link : TPA 3116 Amplifier Board .

It is a class D amplifier with two channels and 50w each. In order to make 6 channels we need three boards. Total 300w RMS. Voltage range is 12-24v DC Single power supply. For separate 100w subwoofer amplifier please visit TPA 3116 subwoofer 100w . The sound quality is good and these boards are very cheap. In order to work with these boards we have to remove the volume controls that are soldered to the PCB.

Power Supply

Here I used 3 transformers. One is 22-0-22 5 amps which gives +/- 35 v DC. I used 4 10000MFD 63v capacitors. This is for the amplifier. It is better to use 10 amps transformer if you want to utilize full power. Another is 12-0-12 1 amp for remote control kit. and 0-12v 500ma for cooling fans. I used two cooling fans. Designed PCB attached. Please open in Diptrace software.

Remote Control

I purchased this remote kit from this site.

http://imranicsworld.blogspot.in/2014/

The sound quality is amazing. The subwoofer filter does not sound good, so I found another best circuit from Internet. I have provided the PCB in next step. After replacing the subwoofer filter it sounded amazing. We have to power this kit with separate 12-0-12, 1 amp Transformer. For remaining details please visit the website.

Digital gain option is provided for individual channel corrections and input gain correction.
Each input gain and individual output channels gain can be adjusted using remote control.
Memory function is provided for audio levels and also audio inputs.
Low pass filter circuit is provided as a separate unit for user adjustments and can be modified.
Soft mute fuction is used for audio mute.
2 band tone control (BASS/TREBLE).
Display software is modified to give a bigger size numbers for audio level for user visibility.

OUTPUT PORTS FOR EXTERNAL HARDWARE CONTROL:

4 output lines for external usb board (CHINA USB BOARD ) control for its basic operations such asPLAY /PAUSE , MODE (usb/fm), TRACK PERV << and >> TRACK NEXT.

Subwoofer Filter

This subwoofer filter is based on NE5532 IC. I modified the circuit by replacing 47k presets with 1ohm resistors. The sound quality is amazing. I attached the circuit and PCB layout.
