Just got my projector set up and I’ve been using the built-in speakers but they feel kinda meh during movies. Do you stick with them or go for soundbars or more speakers? Totally clueless here, so any tips welcome! 😅
 
Built‑in projector speakers are famous for being well... polite at best. Most people upgrade to a soundbar, since it’s the easiest plug‑and‑play boost in clarity and volume. Even an entry‑level one is a huge step up.
 
If you want simple, go soundbar. If you want immersive, a 2.1 or 3.1 speaker setup is good for home theaters. Projectors just don’t have the space for decent drivers, so external audio is almost always worth it.
