Bad song with S1II Lumix !!!

Hello,
After a lot of photography, I'm slowly getting into video.
I'm looking for a codec that will allow me to get the best sound quality with a Lumix S1ii.
During footage shot at the Paris Audio-Video Show, my results were poor when listening directly to the S1ii connected via HDMI to my audio system.
To give you an idea, the iPhone 15 performed much better with a much wider frequency range!
I was using 48kHz/24-bit audio (4K 422/10-1 25p MOV video), without saturation.
- Is there anything better to be gotten from this camera?
Or
- Is it really "minimalist" internally, and do I absolutely have to switch to external microphones to get anything audible?
(I remember recording with an SL2S, which didn't bother me.)

Thank you for your ideas...
 
Definitely you need an external mic if you want high quality sound.
If you want the best possible the mic should support 32bit float audio.
