Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. I got to know about this from another tech forum. I'm editing and pasting the same query which I posted there earlier.
I have a Samsung QAQ60B 50 inch TV and looking for a good value for money soundbar to use with it. I've never owned a soundbar and know nothing about it. So please suggest some models, what to look for, what not to consider etc. It's mostly going to be used to watch OTT content.
The problem with the TV's inbuilt speakers is that most of the times when watching movies, the volume of the dialogues sound lesser compared to the background music. For example, I had the worst audio experience when watching the first Kingsman movie in Disney+. I had to constantly fiddle around the volume button for each scene. Same experience while watching "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", "Antman Quantamania", "Whiplash". I had to increase the volume repeatedly for the dialogues in Whiplash and then bring the volume down when music is being played. These movies are just for examples. It's the same experience for most of the content be it any OTT app (including regional content which is Tamil in my case, so not just English movies).
So is there any solution where I can modify the equalizer in the TV settings to fix this or getting a soundbar is the only fix?
If soundbar is the only solution:
The TV is in a medium sized hall filled up with furniture and stuff. I'm just looking to get a soundbar to be able to have a decent enough audio experience so that I don't have to use my TV remote that much. I'm not sure about the budget as I've never owned a soundbar before. Will 10k be enough? A home theater surround setup won't work for me due to some practical reasons.
And I'm only looking for good well known brands as it's a tier 2/3 city and a good after sales support is important for me. Please help.
