It will probably additionally trigger improper decoding of audio codecs, corresponding to DTS or Dolby Digital, leading to muffled dialogue or poor bass response, all as a result of the proper change must be toggled!<\/p>\n<p>To get the very best audio efficiency out of your soundbar, the primary setting to regulate is the <strong>audio output format<\/strong> in your TV&#8217;s audio settings menu.
