Strange, an audio bar should make the sound clearer.
Yes, it needs some tweaking fer sure.
My older Toshiba has great sound, built in surround sound and it sounds great, doesn’t need a sound bar.
I’ve got a newer LG in the other room, they put all their energy in to making it skinny and light, but it’s not as good as my old thick one.
The Polk Audio Bar has “voice” and “bass” controls. I fiddled around with it last night. Seems better.
My HP Desktop’s Logitech THX system has 1,000 watts, with 6 speakers and subwoofer, and everything is crystal clear on that. It can move ashtrays, rattle pictures, remove paint from walls and shatter glass windows. It. Is. Powerful.
