    - ABOUT THIS VIDEO -
    A number of your audio problems might be resolved by selecting one of the best soundbars. Can't hear the conversation? A soundbar may be useful. Do high-budget blockbusters have a hollow, feeble sound? That will change with a soundbar.
    The problem is that when TVs become thinner, the built-in speakers frequently need to get smaller in order to fit inside the smallest of cabinet spaces, and as a result, the sound no longer has the same impact as that of today's large screens. Although there is a tonne of advanced digital signal processing (DSP) technology onboard to aid in getting the best TV sound output possible, even the best TVs can occasionally sound thin and unrefined.

    I've had several soundbars and surround sound package but it was only when I purchased a budget AVR and a pair of budget speakers that I realised what I was missing, stereo imaging, thumping bass besides going down this route one can always add to it overtime... surround speakers, subwoofers one can even get height speakers and have the full non virtual Dolby Atmos experience.

I can adjust the volume of the soundbar with my TV remote as they are integrated with each other. I recommend this soundbar for the price.

    I cannot believe the one-star reviews from Best Buys on the speakers that's unacceptable for this kind of money. I used to own the Samsung 450 and I gave them away and brought the a650 with the boost bass and it's working for me. However, the cut in and out only for a Split Second other people don't hear it but since I live here I hear it. I tried the firmware update it still didn't work but other than that it's the best that I've had within my price range. I had the 450 and purchased the rear speakers for the 450 was a joke, and they need to get rid of them. It's a disgrace as large of a company is Samsung is and you can't get your product to work properly. Everything in my house Soundbar TV phone tablet, watch is Samsung. The only thing I have that's not Samsung is my airpods and my portable speaker that I travel with.

      Even if they had, wouldn't convert really well through YT.

      It´s understood that spatial audio cannot be evaluated from a YT recording but a well recorded sound demo is always meaningful for orientation in terms of general tonality. Especially when compared to other recordings obtained with the same technique. @@amazingdany
