Girlfriend wants to get me a soundbar or sound system to pair with our recently purchased 65" LG C2.
We both know basically nothing about the best brands, best value, best options for our space, etc.
At this moment in time we also know nothing about prices and, by extension, what the budget should be for it.
Obviously we have a decent TV, but this was a very one-off style splurge as we are not made of money by any means.
We are very frequently using the TV for Blu Ray movies, but we also stream regularly and use the TV for gaming.
I'm also not sure if I'll regret not having surround sound if we just go the soundbar route.
Please hit me with any and all info/opinions/personal experience stories. We have no idea where to start.
Thanks!
TL;DR GIVE ME SOUNDBAR OR SPEAKER SUGGESTIONS THAT WON'T CREATE BUYER'S REMORSE 🤗🤗🤗
Start by going to one of the larger JB HiFi or The Good Guys (same company) that have them on display to test out and try them out. See what different options of soundbars and surround sound systems they have, price brackets and spatial considerations for your own setup. You can then cross-compare with online offers once narrowed down what style and spec you want. Also good excuse to grab ice cream on the way home.
