Audio quality is often an issue with the majority of televisions on the market. Regardless of whether you spend Rs 20,000 or Rs 1 lakh on a new television, the audio quality is at best acceptable, which is why you should invest in a soundbar. Soundbars come at a variety of pricing points, but keep in mind that the primary purpose of a soundbar is to improve the sound quality of your television, so don’t mistake it for conventional speakers. Here are six things to consider when purchasing the best Dolby Atmos soundbar for your television.
- What distinguishes soundbars from Bluetooth speakers
Soundbar Dolby atmos are designed especially for television audio. Its objective is to ensure that lines are audible and that performers’ voices are sharp, even when they whisper. Generally, while watching an action film, the background music is overbearing, leaving you to read subtitles to decipher what your favorite actors are saying. This is where soundbars differentiate themselves from standard Bluetooth speakers or inexpensive 2.1 channel speakers.
- The majority of speakers are adjusted to create greater bass, which may be an issue.
In India, the majority of speakers are set to provide the deepest bass possible. As though Indian shoppers are just concerned with the ‘boom’ produced by deep bass speakers. Thus, if you connect any regular speaker to your television, you will have difficulty watching movies or any other kind of entertainment other than music videos. This is because these speakers are not tuned specifically for singing, and sitting through a two-hour film may be extremely taxing on the hearing. This is where soundbars may help. It provides the proper balance for the audio component, allowing you to appreciate the film.
- When purchasing a soundbar, choose one with at least three channels.
If you’re going to invest in a respectable soundbar rather than a little stereo speaker, at the very least choose one with a minimum of three channels. What, then, are channels? These might be seen as a single source of sound or as independent speakers. A two-channel soundbar has two speakers on each side: one on the left and one on the right. A three-channel model includes one in the center. You may choose between a 5-channel or a 7-channel version for the finest output, but if you have more funds, you may choose to invest in a Dolby Atmos soundbar with numbers such as 5.1.2 or 7.1.2.
- Active and passive soundbars: Active soundbars with built-in amplifiers are a convenient option.
Active and passive soundbar variants are available. Passive ones lack inbuilt power amplifiers and so need an external receiver. Additionally, you will need additional components such as a subwoofer. Passive variants are also more expensive, but the audio quality is superior. If you want a personalized configuration, a passive model may be appropriate; but, if you like a small all-in-one device, go for the Active model, which includes amplifiers, channel processors, and everything else.
- Ascertain that the soundbar you choose has at the very least all common connecting options.
Options for connectivity are critical. Ascertain that the atmos soundbar you purchase has Bluetooth, HDMI ARC, USB, and Wi-Fi. Keep in mind that you’ll want to connect your phone as well to stream video, so the connection is critical. A Dolby Atmos soundbar is not a gadget that can be positioned anywhere in the room for optimal audio output. It should be positioned centrally, either above or below your television. Therefore, ensure that you have the necessary space and wall outlet to power your soundbar.
