Seeking Help Looking for 5.1 Sound System with Dolby support

[Prithi Deb]

Hi everyone! Thanks to the Jio Android SetTopBox that came with our new Jio AirFiber connection, my parents have started watching less Live TV and more OTT content and also music streaming. Our current 2.1 sound system is on the end of its life. It has served us for almost 10 years.

Now I am looking for a 5.1 Sound System with Dolby support. Budget is around ₹10,000 (flexible to some extent). It will be connected to TV. I am open to any brand, as long as it meets my requirements.

I had wishlisted many available options from various brands previously, but most of them are now out of stock or discontinued. Only this one is available. Kindly, give your suggestions.

Also, ONE MORE THING!!!: Our TV doesn't support Dolby and neither it has HDMI ARC (only regular HDMI). We'll probably buy a new TV is the next year or two. So, till then is there any way to get Dolby audio from the Jio STB and FireTV Stick to Speakers? I have seen many AV splitter available on Amazon. But I am not sure if they support Dolby pass-through. Please do tell if you know any way to do the same.

Update:

Purchased these:

Take a look at this ZEBRONICS ZEB-Juke bar 9530WS Pro Dolby 5.1 340 W Bluetooth Soundbar on Flipkart for Rs. 8,999

AmazonBasics 4K HDMI to HDMI and Audio (RCA Stereo or Spdif) Extractor Converter (Supports Apple TV, Fire TV and Blue-Ray Players) for Rs. 1609

BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Toslink Cable (6 Feet / 1.8 Meter) With 8 Channel (7.1) Audio Support (for Home Theatre, Xbox, Playstation etc.) for Rs. 459

I am happy to inform that this setup is working great. Getting 5.1 and Dolby passthrough from both Fire TV Stick as well as Jio SetTopBox. Sound quality is really good.

But the Jio STB's audio setting still shows only PCM and Auto as options. No option to manually select 5.1/Dolby. Nonetheless, the soundbar detects when Dolby content is being played.
