Question What are the best audio settings for a balanced home cinema experience on a budget?

[sairaali1122]

I'm setting up a home cinema system and want to optimize my audio settings for a well-balanced experience without needing high-end equipment. I have a decent soundbar and a small subwoofer but am unsure how to set levels for the best clarity and immersion. Any tips on ideal frequency, volume settings, or adjustments for smaller rooms?"

there are plenty of videos on You Tube, but why did you ask about a separate system in another post, when you had already made up your mind.

Was there no guidance with the kit? If there’s any test option, aim for what sounds like a seamless transfer (handover) from sb to sub.

Tone controls (if present) and volume, as you prefer.
