Poor Audio Quality

Hi there - our Samsung TV has really terrible sound quality. It's hard to hear the dialogue in a movie with a soundtrack. I've played around with the settings (sports, cinema, games, etc.) but still it sounds like everyone is talking into tin cans. Short of purchasing an expensive home theater system, isn't there a way to have this pricey piece of equipment deliver good audio?

turn off all advanced features, and ensure you are in "Stereo" not "SAP" in the MTS settings. All surround sound settings should be off.
