      The display port will have the ratings on the package, also the HDMI, I do know that a 8k display port should be able to do 165, if you’re still unable to get 165, your monitor or desktop is not compatible perhaps.

    Below are questions regarding pc and home theater connections. If sound card is dolby and dts certified. But the card has rca out, So connecting to home theater system (also having rca cable input) Does it give us the dolby and dts effect? And does a futre sound card have an hdmi arc? Because now all home theater is now coming with arc connections.

    • @hoodeddragons
      @hoodeddragons 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Great question, anything when converting from a digital source to an analog using an AVR your AVR will simulate Dolby/dts but not a true Dolby/dts signal but will still sound good. I run this signal because I use my display port for pc gaming. For example I only get true Dolby anything/Atmos signals when I use HDMI cables 2.0 from pc through AVR even arc. But to answer your question our sound card may have all the capabilities of Dolby/dts it still needs the pc game or movie to have the decodes, in other words to ensure digital Dolby/dts signals until they upgrade USB connections or add display ports to AVRs, HDMI is the only way to get a true digital Dolby signal using a home theater connections. For arc it should work through your AVR, as far as future sound card for arc I’m not familiar with that. I hope this answers some of your questions.

    I don't know what you mean "amplifiers wont worsen sound quality". Amplifiers have noise floor (SNR), dynamic range (SINAD) and distortion characteristics at different frequencies and speaker impedances, just like DACs do. As can be seen from actual measurements on different audio review websites like Audio Science Review and Audioholics. That will influence sound reproduction and sound quality.

    Auro3D is not object based. At least not normally. There is a THEATRICAL format for the commercial cinema called "AuroMax" which can use Objects like Dolby Atmos does, but it is not available in the home......yet. Auro3D has new owners who are preparing to release a new version of the Auro3D codec for streaming and this new version supposedly may include AuroMax decoding adding the ability to decode more than 13.1 channels.....up to 26.1 channels I believe. The newer version of Auro also has the ability to process Objects from Dolby Atmos or DTS:X, which is really odd and unique. But as far as I know, only the Yamaha A8 has this version of Auro. That version probably won't go industry wide until the new streaming codec becomes available.

    I liked where you were trying to go with this, but it was a bit hard to follow. So I guess you're watching through xbox series x and the atmos wasn't mapping correctly for those rear ceiling bouncers? So you got sound to come out of the rear atmos speakers by going to your avr menu an designating them to another position that finally did provide sound? Big question though is the sound appropriate? If it's playing middle data wouldn't that throw off an airplance fly over? My guess it would not matter much but you do want it accurate. You have the disc from techno dad, and the avr test tone but you're saying xbox doesn't map to those? Incedentally, I just noticed the ps5 in one game does map atmos to 9.1.4 except the top rears. In the ps5 settings there is no adjustment other than choose atmos, so maybe that is what is going on with xbox?

Changing it to overhead is not rigging the set-up it’s only the default configuration for the aged rotel mkII processor which is outdated and un update able. Good conversation though. The Xbox reference was only about the Dolby Access app download.

    Nice to see a long term review. I'm about to buy this bad boy with a 100 bucks discount, new. It's going to replace my (LG PB60G) 1280x800, 500 lumen, DLP LED projector that I bought in 2012. I've had a couple of others in between but I have all sent them back due to not having a good enough image quality and rainbow effect. Now I found out that 3LCD is going to fix this. So, with a little bit extra resolution, higher lumen output and better projection technology, I feel this is going to be a good upgrade. My biggest issue being that I have a bigger room, so the projector will have to be ceiling-mounted and it will be in the middle of the room. I wish it had a longer throw so it could be placed near the back-wall, but hey, for better image quality I'm willing to make small sacrifices. I also think the Epson EF-11 is going to be a lot quieter than my current projector. So all in all it's going to be a substantial upgrade, even though the EF-11 is already a three year old model. Another benefit is the low power consumption of max 102Watt which basically means it will only generate as much heat as 1 extra person being in the room. On hot days this is a very big bonus.

      @@hoodeddragons Thanks! I'll let you know when I have tried it out :) In my country we are entitled to use a online purchase like a projector for up to one hour to see if it offers the functionality that you expect it to have. If it isn't satisfactory we can still send it back and get a full refund. So it's not such a big risk. Though I'm pretty sure this is a keeper :) Also nice to see this projector has a normal remote control, though the downside is that if the remote breaks, there are no controls on the projector itself haha.

      @@hoodeddragons I'm gonna make a backup of the IR signals anyway haha ;) Just because it's possible with an ESP8266 controller. I don't know if you sometimes do things with electronics, but it's fun to mess around with. You can then, for example add an IR remote to your Home Assistant setup and control your projector from Home Assistant. It can then turn off the lights in the room and simultaneously turn on the projector with a single voice command, etc etc.

    I use heights. Bookshelf speakers mounted to the ceiling aimed directly toward the listeners. My front heights are mounted at 30° of elevation. My Top-Middles are at 100° (right between my front row and back row) and my rear heights are at 150°. Perfect setup for 6 heights. Object based audio is fantastic. I have had Atmos and DTS:X since about 2018. You have to watch the right movies. When you find one with a good sound mix, you'll know. Its unmistakeable. Auro3D is a European format, mostly found in Germany. It lost the format war to Atmos. You CAN find native Atmos movies from Europe. For example the German version of Twister is available in both Auro3D and Atmos on the German version. I recently upgraded to a Denon X6700H for the 13 channel atmos (7.1.6) and can now take advantage of Auro. I really like the upmixer. I use it quite a lot on older material available in Stereo. For most Multichannel (but non-immersive) material, I use the Neural-X upmixer. And native Atmos for most newer releases. So I'm making frequent use of all three formats.

    I have only heard auro on you tube, but it did sound really immersive. I only use a budget Panasonic btp 180 bluray player and a Samsung q 600b with rear speakers, and most blurays are Dts as standard, which I find more immersive than atmos. My upfiring speakers are only 10w each so i dont expect much there. I just feel Dts is a lot more tonally and directionally balanced in a basic lounge set up. I even tried atmos music, Peter Gabriel i/o album, and I honestly prefer the bright mix on a Panasonic sc602 mini hifi to the inside Atmos mix on my tv set up. I'll stick with 5.1 for my situation 🙃

    Are you referring to console stuff or something? On PC, I have Windows Spatial Audio, Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Sound Unbound which includes DTS Headphone: X, DTS: X, and DTS:X Home Theater. And on Dolby Atmos, there's 4 sections. Gaming, Movies, Music, Voice. Each one has settings for "Detailed", "Balanced" or "Warm" and for gaming, a 4th option called "Performance Mode" for enhanced spatial accuracy. And, then you can make custom equalizer settings, too. I have an Asus B550-F Gaming Wi-Fi II with the S1220a codec and dual OP amps so I use Realtek Audio software to control the amps and Sonic Studio III to enhance other settings. I like 'em all except Windows Spatial audio lol. Edit: But, for me, I prefer Dolby Atmos for Headphones with my Creative HS65 Surround headphones. And I don't use the USB plug for my headphones for "virtualized 7.1 surround sound." I use the onboard audio so I can use all those features I listed, including being able to use the "dual OP amps" and set them to extreme so my headphones can get loud enough to damage themselves.

      Yes that didn’t work along with the native atmos demos; with these demo files it needs a fast usb processor such as an SSD.

    if the auro3d were native tracks then our pc's have no software to process that.
