Most of todays TV speakers are awful. Doesn't matter since the audio bitrate from streaming services are also very low. Even BluRay cannot help in many cases as localized audio often comes without the good mix. I don't even know good websites to check if things come with good localized audio on the blurays so I can only look at piracy releases since they list bitrates and audio.


Netflix (and others) are streamin Dolby Atmos at 768kbps, which is... fine. You do need a device supporting that though.


Blurays come with 5000+ kbps and the home cinema is a 9.2 setup.


Spotify sounds great out of my TV. Movies are absolutely horrible though
