At the very least get an atmos capable receiver with DTSx. Kef has good deals on theater speakers. Soundbar is nothing like a theater system.
Great video buddy! Ive been getting the itch to upgrade the audio, even though I probably don't need to and dont want my wife to kill me lol.
Glad you’re talking about audio, far too many UA-camr movie channels only use their crappy TVs audio, honestly imo they’re not movie lovers even if they have thousands of movies but are satisfied with TV speakers, video presentation is only half of the experience, good quality audio is directors intent. I always try to recommend a subwoofer at least(and they still don’t listen🤦♂️).
And I don’t even have a modern sound system, I use a older Sony AV receiver connected to a bunch of speakers surround sound, subwoofer etc(I got everything from thrift store for 30 bucks). I’m planning on upgrading next year to modern equipment(doesn’t mean my current equipment is bad, still way better than sound bars 😂). for TV I have a 77” LG C1, I will upgrade TV in three years, may go 83” G series LG OLED.
Yeah, I definitely agree with it's half the experience and from my own experience watching with immersive audio is like watching a movie for the first time.
Thanks for watching the video!
Actually just upgraded to a Panasonic UB-820 4k player. It really is amazing. It’s as if watching movies again for the first time.
It definitely is! I used to play my 4k's on my Xbox One, and I'm glad I decided to spend the extra money for the UB820.
Get yourself a nice Denon receiver You get a lot of speakers reasonable price online put yourself together a nice little system on the cheap you’ll be amazed.
Thanks for the suggestion and watching the video.
Audio is definitely an investment...and expensive 🤣
I have a lg c2 49 INCH 4 k Dolby vision tv , Panasonic ub820 4 k Blu-ray player, ysp 2500 soundprojecter with sub woofer, tbh it does me 🎼🎥💿👍🏻📺 good video mate 👍🏻
Like your setup! Thanks for watching, Stuart!
I'm happy with my audio set up but i can't wait to upgrade my tv later this year.
What tv are you looking at getting?
@@Franksmediaandreviews Not sure yet. I just know I want a 65 or 70 inch OLED TV.
@@sprcrzy110 LG was a must as I'm a gamer as well.
@@Franksmediaandreviews Sounds like LGs have less screen latency than other models? I'll check them out when the time comes. Thanks 👍🏻
@@sprcrzy110 No problem. I did a ton research before I bought my C9. Loved the brand so much I got a CX soon after. Definitely get the 4-5 year warranty though. I bought mine from Best Buy.
great topic and discussion, I used to be totally fine watching movies on my phone 😂 now I love Brendan's new 75in tv lol he is also on the hunt for a sound system
Size matters 🤣
Hope you guys find a good sound system. Try to get one that has rear speakers. They make a difference.
@@Franksmediaandreviews 😂😂😂 thank you!
I had a LG CX 55 until January 2024. Upgraded to the LG G3 65 in January 2024. I have a middle of the road LG sq75r soundbar with surround speakers, and a Panasonic ub820 4k player. I’ll say that even in 2024 an LG CX is still an excellent tv (I have it in mine and my wife’s bedroom now that I got my G3) the CX in 2024 is still better than any of that Hisense, TCL, or almost any non flagship LCD tv crap that’s been released this year
Thanks for watching and commenting. Quick question, is there a noticeable difference between the CX and G3? The G4 will be released soon.
@@Franksmediaandreviews the g4 is out already. Has been for a few months. Tbh the biggest and only real difference I noticed is the brightness (it’s like 35-40% brighter than the CX) that comes with the MLA tech in the G3. I bought the G3 over the C3 because the G3 comes with a 5 year panel warranty. That’s a big reason I upgraded.
@@grievousangel1984 it's already out! Wow, time goes by too fast.
That's big difference in brightness. I'm assuming the picture quality is better as well?
@@Franksmediaandreviews it’s better image processing, and higher brightness that is most noticeable. 4k resolution is 4k resolution, so the yearly upgrades are incremental. The peak brightness of the CX is like 890nits if i remember correctly. The G3 I’d like 1500nits. I’m a gamer as well as a physical media enthusiast, and gaming is where I see the biggest difference in quality. HDR gaming on my series x and ps5 is much better than the CX. HDR gaming/movies are much better than CX. Right now is a good price point to grab the G3 over G4 (from everything I’ve seen/read the price of the G4 right now is t worth it as opposed to grabbing the G3 right now)
@@grievousangel1984 thanks for the info and tip!
We had an LG soundbar but man the vocals were always super low. Turn up the volume and get your ear drums destroyed by every other sound. My wife actually won our Samsung 4k TV in a contest. Once i had a 4k tv, i started using my Xbox one x to watch movies. It was awful snd nearly half of my discs wouldn't play. Got to my breaking point snd then decided I needed something worth using for my movies or there was no point in continuing to collect movies. Got the Panasonic 820 and the Samsung 880b sound bar with the rear 7.1 speakers. Wife thought I was nuts until i sat her down and had her listen to an Atmos tracked movie. Plus the vocal tracks are so much better now. She wasn't happy about the price tag but definitely agreed it was better than what we had
We almost have the same setup! Having the dedicated 4k player makes a big difference, and then adding the immersive audio and 4k TV 🤯
My wife thought I was wasting money, but even she could tell there was a major difference of quality and to be honest, we've watched a lot more movies at home instead of going to the theater.
@@Franksmediaandreviews Ready Player One is my favorite Atmos movie for my set up. Has excellent sound movement
@@Franksmediaandreviews my daughters get a kick out of hearing the extra little sounds coming out of the rear speakers
@@Insomniackuzco The first race scene and the end of the movie is so fun to experience. Love it!
I bought a 49 lg cx lg 4K player Sonos beam sub mini and 21sls a year ago. I’ve now bought a 65 c3 a Sonos arc, sub gen 3 and two era 300s. My advice to others is work out what the end game dream is and buy it once
💯. Thanks for watching the video and getting your feedback.
When you have better equipment viewers will take your opinion on audio more seriously. If you’re doing this on UA-cam you HAVE to get theater equipment. By the way I’m waiting for Crimson peak 👀
Damnit, I just realized I misspoke your you and your YT channel. I apologize, buddy.
You're definitely not wrong. I appreciate you watching and getting your feedback. And may the odds be in your favor for the Crimson Peak 🤣
Frank, would u ever consider doing watchalong livestreams?
Morning Ryan! I honestly don't know. I guess that wasn't even on my radar 🤣. I think I would like to see how the livestreams go, then later doing a watchalong livestream. Of course, it's gotta be a horror movie 🤣
I say we Anchorman this discussion 😂
🤣😳... Calm down, buddy!
I can't wait until we get that 4k! That'll be soon!
@@FranksmediaandreviewsThat'd make a good meme 😂
@@Insomniackuzco it totally would 🤣
Yes the real controversy of this video, was infact your lack of cable management, sir!
I know! I apologize for the traumatizing imagery 🤣. I need to fix it.
