This is a particularly important topic for myself on the spectrum, as I’ve had a lot of difficulties trying to follow what’s going on in the cinema. I’d have subtitles on all the time if that was possible.

As somebody who recently set up a Denon 5.1 system, that’s not been my experience. I mean, there’s certainly a lot of tweaking, wires, and configuration to do, but it’s not because of the audio standards. Dolby just fucking works, and everybody uses it.
The main problem is trying to figure out how best to upmix stereo inputs to get it to sound decent, and make sure you can get a decent mix of narration and music. I’ve found it’s best to just trust the microphone-based auto-configuration for speaker levels, and use the other options like multi-channel stereo and the dialog enhancer settings to make it work better.
