Well, maybe not the insults part.</p><p>However, if you're planning to get fully immersed in the Euro 2016 matches, you won't want to rely on the tinny speakers of your TV.</p><p>If you want the absolute top sound quality – and you have a budget that can accommodate the asking price – then the Monitor Audio R90HT1 5.1 speaker package (£1,499, around $2,169, AU$2,916) is well worth the investment, with surround sound capabilities that will help you to feel like you're inside the stadium, watching the games live.</p><ul><li><a href="http://www.sevenoakssoundandvision.co.uk/p-12391-r90-ht1.aspx">Buy the Monitor Audio R90HT1</a></li></ul><p>If space – and budget – is more of a concern then a soundbar is a great choice, offering great sound quality and virtual surround sound without the nuisance of speaker wires trailing everywhere. The Denon HEOS HomeCinema soundbar and sub-woofer is worth considering – and its HEOS multi-room technology enables you to connect multiple soundbars throughout your house to play music, making it a great choice for after-match parties. </p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/howto/World%20of%20Tech/watch%20UEFA%20Euro%202016/denon-420-90.jpg" alt="How to watch UEFA Euro 2016 championship" width="420"></img></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.denon.co.uk/uk/heos-homecinema">Buy the Denon HEOS HomeCinema</a></li></ul><p>Best of all, Denon has dropped the price of the HEOS HomeCinema soundbar from £599 to £399 in the UK for four weeks to coincide with Euro 2016.
