I have an Apple TV 4k (2nd Gen) on tvOS Beta 15.1 and I'm thinking of replacing of my bulky 15 year old Polk Audio 3.1 channel setup. My room doesn't have the space for a true Dolby Atmos setup and I have no desire to get a soundbar. I have one HomePod Mini speaker in my room that I use for Apple Music. I'm willing to move my HomePod Mini speaker closer to my Apple TV 4k and placing it at base of my tv and getting another HomePod Mini so I can listen to stereo sound. I also have another option is to buy the AirPods Max, but what is bothering me is the condensation issue that a lot of people say it has.

If I am at my home, I wouldn't ever want a reason to wear headphones to watch my Apple TV.

Also, do you only watch TV alone?
 
I wear headphones when I have no other choice but never use them for watching my AppleTV unless I would be disturbing someone.
