Richer Sounds Ireland

Where are we ?

We are not just an etailer. We have a retail outlet in Belfast city centre there the internet site is operated through. Our Belfast store has been open for over 10 years now and although it may not be the biggest store in Belfast it's jam-packed with money saving offers !!! Our website prices can be cheaper than the in-store prices due to the website having different running costs and overheads, so if you are paying a visit to the store, please mention the website price when you visit.

We are situated at 7 Smithfield Square, Behind Castlecourt, in Belfast. Castlecourt is the main shopping centre in Belfast city centre and has a multi-story car-park at the rear. There are also several other surface carparks in the area. See the map for location:

If travelling from the South. Join motorway going north. Follow sign-posts for Belfast. At the end of the M1 motorway there is a new underpass which joins the "westlink" dual carriageway. Continue straight for about one mile and stay in the left lane. Keep going until you see a sign for "City Centre Falls Road". Take slip-road for "City Centre". At top of slip-road turn right and at next set of lights, turn left. On the right you will see a large red-bricked building. This is the castlecourt car park. Take next right and we are approx 200m down on the left. (Past Smithfield market).

2^Dolby NR^An explanation of Dolby technology could go here !^|3^Bi-wired^A speaker with seperate terminals to connect it's woofer and tweeter to the amplifier.^|43^Analogue^A signal that is as exact replica of the original sounds waveform. An example of an analogue device is a cassette deck.^|44^Impedance^The resistance, measured in Ohms, offered to AC (alternating current) signals by a component. In loudspeaker specifications 8 Ohms is the norm, 6 Ohms is becoming more popular, but be careful with low-impedance 4 Ohm speakers because not all power amplifiers are happy driving them.^|45^RDS^Radio Data System - This is fitted to some tuners and car radios (where it's genuinely useful ) and supplies some additional information and controls signals to the tuner^|46^Sensitivity^When quoted in loudspeaker specifications, this tells you how easy a job the amplifier have driving the speaker. Measured in dB (decibels), 88dB is average, 84dB is low (so get a big amp!), and 90dB or above is very high (so a little amp will do).^|47^Tweeter^A loudspeaker's high frequency drive unit. Produces most of the treble.^|48^Watts^Used to specify amplifier or loudspeaker power handling.^|49^Woofer^A loudspeaker's low frequency drive unit.^|50^Amplifier^Hi-fi component (or any electrical circuit) that boosts signals. An amplifier is required to connect a cd player to speakers...and so on.^|51^Multiregion^This term means that the unit is capable of playing discs from anywhere in the world. The world is split into 6 regions. DVD players and discs sold within Europe are region 2. America is region 1 and so on.^|52^Multi-region^This term means that the unit is capable of playing discs from anywhere in the world. The world is split into 6 regions. DVD players and discs sold within Europe are region 2. America is region 1 and so on.^|92^WMA 9 Pro^The first digital surround sound coding technology for the Web, developed by Microsoft. When connected to a multi-channel-equipped PC, you are able to enjoy high resolution stereo or 5.1-channel surround audio at 128 k - 768 Kbps compression rates. At any given bit rate, 5-channel WMA9 Pro will bring you higher fidelity than other sound compression algorithms thanks to the latest audio codec technology.^|93^WMA 9 Pro^The first digital surround sound coding technology for the Web, developed by Microsoft.

At any given bit rate, 5-channel WMA9 Pro will bring you higher fidelity than other sound compression algorithms thanks to the latest audio codec technology.^|94^HDMI switching^An excellent feature that allows multiple HDMI devices to be connected through and amp and then 1 HDMI output to be connected to the TV. This will allow anyone who has a single HDMI connection on the TV, to connect several via the amp. The number of devices varies between models.^|96^PRFC^Test^|
