Want to buy audio setup for living room

Budget: 20k

Usage: Mainly for watching movies
Listening to music

Requirements: Clear vocals, adequate bass (not overpowering)
Great overall sound quality

TV does not have HDMI eArc port, would upgrade it in the future.

TV is wall mounted so tower speakers may not be a good idea?

Do not like the exposed wiring of the surround speakers running along the ceiling. So might not go for 5.1

Found This wireless 5.1 at 24k but not enough reviews to judge it.

So the only option that remains is soundbar with active subwoofer.

Is there much of a difference in sound quality in 2.1, 2.1.2 and 5.1 at this budget?

How much is the loss in sound quality if the subwoofer is wireless?

Also if there are some exceptionally good products slightly above this range, would increase my budget.

Please recommend specific models and do suggest your ideas for the setup.

Can't suggest an exact model. But don't go for soundbar that advertise 5.1 sound.
A soundbar at best can do 2 channel or at best (2 + 1 center channel) unless you are paying a lot.
If going with 5.1 or 4.1 make sure speakers are placed at the required positions else its not worth it.

Somehow i am not convinced about wireless/bluetooth home theaters or headphones. Wireless audio will have reduced number of channles , which will not give you the full range and the sound effect .
I would like to know others opinion who have used wireless setup.
