The quality of the sound on the TV often depends not only on the device itself, but also on the space in which it is used. Whether it’s a Samsung, LG or Sony model, there are simple ways to significantly improve your audio experience without expensive speakers and accessories.
One of the key factors is the acoustics of the room. Hard surfaces like walls, floors and ceilings reflect sound, which can lead to echoes and slurred dialogue. By introducing soft materials such as carpets, curtains, pillows or fabric furniture, it is possible to absorb part of the sound waves and get a cleaner and more natural sound.
Space and settings often make more of a difference than hardware
Outside noise can also have a big impact. Thicker curtains can help dampen ambient noise, while acoustic foam placed on walls or in room corners can further improve sound control. Such solutions today are affordable and easy to install.
The built-in settings on the TV itself also play an important role. Modern models offer options for sound optimization depending on the mounting method. If the TV is mounted on a wall, the rear speakers are amplified to reflect sound from the wall. When placed on a stand, the emphasis is on the downward-facing speakers, which use the area under the device for better sound propagation.
Advanced options like automatic calibration can further enhance the experience. Functions such as SpaceFit in Samsung models or Acoustic Auto Calibration in Sony devices analyze the space and adjust the sound in real time.
On Samsung TVs:
Settings > Sound Settings > SpaceFit ON
or
Settings > Sound > Expert settings > Auto Volume ON > Optimized Mode ON
SpaceFit uses sensors to analyze the space and automatically adjusts the sound.
On LG TVs:
Settings > Sounds > Additional Settings > Installation Type > WALL MOUNT
On Sony TVs:
Settings > Display & Sound > Sound > Acoustic Auto Calibration ON
This option uses sensors to analyze sound reflection in space.
On Hisense TVs:
Settings > Sound > Sound Mode Settings > Wall Mount setup
On TCL TVs:
Settings > Display & Sounds > Audio > Mount Configuration > Wall
All these methods show that for better sound it is not always necessary to invest in additional speakers or soundbar devices. A properly adjusted space and the use of existing options can significantly improve the quality of sound reproduction on the TV, writes ZDNET.
