    3000€ is still a hell of a lot of money. Most people I know don’t have a TV that’s more than 500€ and no sound system at all or maybe a 200€ soundbar. I don’t know anyone whose TV + sound system is above 3000€ combined and the one guy who hits that mark is a movie lover.

    If multi thousand euro setups would be the norm, I don’t think we would be having the conversation about bad-for-home-video audio as much. Most people aren’t in the position to spend that much cash on their TV, though.

    That said, you can get a decent used 5.1 audio setup for well under 100€, that can totally cope with most of the dynamic range and deliver a good audio experience. But most people don’t know and don’t care about that. They just want whatever movie they’re watching to sound good enough on their TVs.
