Hey fellas i live in a small house alone also have small living room(some kind of residence) and i decided to buy soundbar sound system but it has various price range, i will sell my ps4 soon to have additional budget and my ultimate aim is to experience movie theater quality in my living room at least so i see there are 5.1 soundbars about 400 dollars and 2.1s are about 100 dolar, does it worth to buy 5.1 models, will it have big impact on sound experience?
I took this pic to show what my living room is looking like
sound bars only work to emulate surround speakers by doing all kinds of weird shit of bouncing the sound off of walls nearby. they do not work in every situation, and chances are will not work well in that setup.
in the end, get whatever you want. it will sound better than the tv speakers and thats all you will need
There's an excellent article on the wirecutter on soundbars. Check it out famalam

So you suggest me to classic tower style sound systems, i see that soundbars are not best choice from your words because i want to put my money on the best possible choice in the end

with such a small room and a small setup it wouldnt be worth spending the $700+ on a standalone system.
for your situation i would personally just get something like a good sound bar and maybe a sub. the surround sound effect is really hit or miss and it really isnt that great unless you have the right room setup and spend a lot of money on the bar

You can get a 5.1 soundbar for $200 if you wait for a sale.
