5 sure-fire ways to upgrade your soundbar's audio quality without spending a dime
"It may sound obvious (because it is), but where you place your soundbar is a major factor. For the most balanced sound, position the soundbar directly below your TV, centered and parallel to the screen. Mounting a soundbar above your screen is also an option, but the ideal height placement for ultimate clarity is at or near ear level. Ensure your soundbar isn't obstructed by furniture or decorative items that can block sound waves."
"Each room has unique acoustics. Does your room have high ceilings or large windows? Are your floors hardwood or tile? If so, consider adding soft furnishings such as rugs and curtains to reduce reflections. You could also take it a step further by adding acoustic panels or diffusers to your area. Acoustic panels or diffusers can help manage sound reflections and create a more balanced audio environment."
Soundbars provide a notable audio upgrade over built-in TV speakers and benefit from simple optimizations. Placement directly below the TV, centered, parallel to the screen and at or near ear level yields the most balanced sound. Avoid obstructing the soundbar with furniture or decor. Room acoustics affect playback; high ceilings, large windows, and hard floors increase reflections. Adding soft furnishings like rugs and curtains, or installing acoustic panels or diffusers, reduces reflections and balances sound. Advanced soundbars may include AI room calibration, while models without it require experimentation to find the optimal position.
