Question regarding TV sound settings with soundbar and subwoofer

I'll start by saying I'm fairly new to much of this.

I'm having trouble getting my sound correct. I have a Samsung Smart TV and a Yamaha Yas 108 soundbar. I also recently purchased an external subwoofer that connects to the soundbar.

My question is what setting should I have my Samsung TV on? PCM or Dts Neo 5.2? The DTS Neo 5.2 gives me much more bass in the sound (which I like, esp with my new subwoofer). But the sound overshadows the dialouge and it is very quiet. (And I do have the clear dialogue setting ON on the soundbar). PCM makes me hear dialouge better but much less bass. I guess I want an in-between of the two.

My sound bar is hooked up to the TV via optic cable since my TV does not have HDMI ARC.

Thanks everyone... If this is in the wrong place please move it somewhere else! Thanks again!
