#1 Roku Pro Series (2025)
5.0

Stereo imaging and virtual surround are unusually convincing for built-in speakers, creating a wider and more immersive soundstage than typical TVs.

Pros: resolution, display technology

Cons: customer support, optical audio output

#2 Hisense U75QG
4.5

The 2.1.2 speaker layout creates a surprisingly broad, immersive stage for a TV, including usable height effects in some rooms.

Pros: sustained brightness, HDR format support

Cons: gaming mode quality, Bluetooth audio support

#3 Hisense U65QF
4.5

The built-in speakers create a fuller and more spacious soundstage than expected for a budget flat-panel TV.

Pros: resolution, HDR format support

Cons: advertising intrusiveness, gaming dashboard

#4 Amazon Ember QLED TV
4.0

Sound has a pleasant breadth and wider profile than basic TV speakers, even without convincing height effects. It is competent rather than truly cinematic.

Pros: local dimming performance, HDR format support

Cons: gradient handling, banding control

#5 TCL QM8L
4.0

Virtual spatial processing adds a noticeable sense of height and width. It is effective for casual immersion but does not replace a real surround setup.

Pros: overall image accuracy, resolution

Cons: motion clarity, response time

#6 LG C6
3.8

The presentation can sound wider and more precisely mapped than older C-series TVs, yet standard models still feel narrow beside a dedicated sound system.

Pros: resolution, contrast ratio

Cons: HDR10+ support, account requirements

#7 LG G6
3.8

Audio can spread beyond the screen with decent directionality, yet it often remains contained and lacks the scale of stronger built-in systems.

Pros: panel type, display technology

Cons: account requirements, DTS support

#8 LG StanByMe 2
2.7

AI Sound Pro can make the presentation feel wider, but opinions are mixed because some reviewers found the result hollow or overprocessed. Standard or Cinema modes may sound more balanced.

Pros: streaming app support, voice control accuracy

Cons: motion handling, motion clarity

#9 LG B6
2.0

The soundstage is narrow and rarely extends beyond the screen.

Pros: display technology, response time

Cons: setup ease, account requirements
