    For me, it’s a social activity where I can enjoy with close friends. I also don’t have a 4K TV or surround sound system, so the audio and visual quality is miles ahead in the theatre than my 1080p TN LCD flatscreen and Bluetooth speaker.

      Original Sony Bravia Z Series. Don’t even use the Bluetooth speaker. Yeah. Theaters definitely hit different than at home.

      And it definitely is a fun experience to see movies on the big screen.

        I got a modern 42 inch TV hooked up to an RCA stereo from the 90s with two big box speakers and I get that theatre sound right in my bedroom. A set like this is still only like $50-60 if you ca find 'em.

        You don’t need a 5 or 7 speaker system for perfect surround sound; just 2. Headphones might even sound better if you’re on a tight budget.

          Apartment living sucks. The walls here are cellophane thin. Headphones is the best I got.
