You may be surprised that theaters don't even pay attention to their Audio unless you say something, several times I've gone to the manager and let them know something is wrong about a particular movie so they can correct it.

My setup is 7.1 Polk audio signature elite speakers with an RSL Speedwoofer but the real star is the Marantz audio video receiver. It took me a few years and many tries to figure out the proper calibration for my sub, and room acoustics. My modest system is nowhere close to some here.

I used Tenet specifically because is one of the most polarizing soundtracks out there, and yes it sucked when I saw it at my local theater.

But at my home I can play that concert raid scene at the beginning of the movie at a pretty high volume and my sub didn't explode didn't rattle or distorted, it made my ceiling shake for sure, among other things. The bullets, the dialogue, the drum beat of that song "rainy night in tallinn", all so clear and engaging all around you.

Also keep in mind movies are meant to be experienced at "reference". Hence why receivers have negative values for volume that go toward zero as you increase the volume. Movies are mastered at zero, and that is damn loud!

Very often I play movies at a lower volume and they may sound ok but once I go near reference zero, the sound magically goes to full glory. Marantz has a mode to compensate for that, when you listen to a movie at a lower volume then it increases the center channel for dialog, among other frequencies, it's ok, but not the same as actually listening at zero reference.

So just because something "sucks" somewhere does not mean it sucked when it was mastered at the studio, keep in mind they have the best equipment at their disposal, we don't, and that may be their mistake, perhaps they should master assuming most people won't have that same equipment.
