What's the issue with wearing a beanie? It won't hurt your ability to locate sound sources... It certainly will block some frequencies more than others, making for an unbalanced sound, but it should a be fairly small difference and it would not hurt your ability to locate sound sources...
That depends on the hight to the ceeling and what material it's made of. And the angle of the speakers of course.. But in general systems like this are not close to the real deal. I would rather have a pretty decent real 5.1 setup or even a pretty great 2.0 or 2.1/2.2 setup than this.

@@pizzilr I see what your saying. However, just because they usually go into more depth on other unboxing videos, doesn't mean they always have to. Its still just an unboxing video.
@@MC-ew7sc When producing a video, I don't think "they don't have to" applies. Especially with how big LTT has gotten. They just didn't want to comment on the sound quality. Probably because it's jsut not good and they can't say that in a sponsored video.

Linus re wall mounts: "I gotta tell those inventory guys they don't have to label everything" Another video with the same system 6 months later: "Well I could use the wall mounts that came with it if only the inventory guys hadn't lost track of them"
Came here to say this... Check out these speakers designed to bounce off the ceiling! Let's test them out here in a room with no ceiling and wonder why they aren't all that great...
I have this etup at home you need to fine tune it a bit using the Vizio smart link app and enables the upward firing speakers on both the sound bar and the satellite speakers they make a world of difference also you can adjust the perfect distance depending on where you sit in the room and location of the speakers, Dolby ATMOS is an amazing thing, these speakers have changed my life and how I consume my audio and video in real life and they are properly loud, that bass speaker is top kek overall very good audio quality with all the Dolby stuff superb machine.
@@Antimonkat it has 2 rear channels, but the Soundbar in the front is really just one speaker. You will not hear a diffrence between left and right and Center. Thats why i called it 3.1.2
Ummm, didnt you coat your ceiling with sound dampening? + isnt there like 20-25 feet to the ceiling? How is the Dolby feature still working? And wouldnt there be a massive delay with such a high ceiling?
This is part of the cat ownership package. Suck it up and carry on. And don't you dare move and disturb the cat's sleep until she voluntarily leaves your lap.
Where can you find Dolby Atmos content that you can stream? I have a receiver that can support it, but I haven't bothered to hook up the atmos speakers, I don't have any content that will use it. Is it only through blu-ray? I have both a htpc and a Google Chromecast with Google TV dongle.
Just curious, did you set Xbox Dolby Atmos settings to game mode? There's an app on the Xbox One X, figured Series X handles it the same. I have a headset with Atmos, changing between movie/music/game really does make an audible difference.
Can you do a real review for beginners? I am thinking of getting this to replace a stereo. Do I plug my Nivida Shield and Blu-Ray player into the TV or soundbar? Only two devices I have.
I want your review and opinion on this product but using Windows atoms in a FPS game... Cod warzone would be my preferred game out test out. Compared this sound system in the video to Sony MX 4.... headphones
I connected my Apple TV with HDMI to the soundbar and soundbar via HDMI to TV (eARC). This made it recognize the Atmos content. However, this gives me a slight audio delay by a few milliseconds. It does not happen when the Apple TV is plugged directly to the TV and the sound bar is plugged directly to the TV. Any ideas how to sort this out. I would like to enjoy the Atmos feature.
Given the size of modern TV speakers any bigger speaker is better, as the last two TV that I bought (one for me , one for my father) both had great screens but very poor and tinny speakers. So for my father I used a set of 3.1 creative P380 pc speakers, he is a bit deaf but said wow to the much better sound, I used a creative MF7900 7.1 system, which whilst not set at stupidly high volumes give a MUCH FULLER SOUND and don't have to be set as high as the tinny TV speakers. So if you are getting a thin TV get a sound bar or surround sound system, your ears will love it.
One thing I've found about this soundbar is that if you don't turn the subwoofer all the way down, it'll drown out everything else. Things didn't start getting better until I did that and fiddled with settings from the app. But now that I have it dialed in to sound good among a wide spectrum of content.... it's awesome. But the Atmos is no big deal really. Once in a while a sound will come out of those upfiring speakers. But not as often as you'd think. Bouncing off the ceiling? I doubt it. But honestly I don't care that much about it because it does sound great. And theres a nice volume leveling feature if you don't like the sometimes massive disparity between dialogue and action.
What about mentioning the samsung hw-q950t 9.1.4 Dolby Atmos soundbar that I bought at black Friday. It's the best in the game rn and the sound quality is quite good for a soundbar
Since its sponsored and he literally didn’t comment on the sound quality I’ll assume its not good.
Fr
Is short circuit, they usually try to avoid commenting on anything... But yeah, usually they will say at least their first impressions
It's from visio. It sounds like crap. I've heard visio sound bars before

“Top-firing for this genre, maybe not so much” ... wearing a beanie while testing said top-firing speakers

What's the issue with wearing a beanie? It won't hurt your ability to locate sound sources... It certainly will block some frequencies more than others, making for an unbalanced sound, but it should a be fairly small difference and it would not hurt your ability to locate sound sources...
The room itself plays a bigger role than a hat.
Even with headphones, i doubt you could notice a difference wearing a hat versus not wearing one.
Drop the e add ing
You should’ve tested it out in an actual living room so we could find out if those speakers pointing up really did bounce off of the ceiling correctly
That depends on the hight to the ceeling and what material it's made of. And the angle of the speakers of course.. But in general systems like this are not close to the real deal.
I would rather have a pretty decent real 5.1 setup or even a pretty great 2.0 or 2.1/2.2 setup than this.
And he should have put down his beanie so he could actually locate the sound properly '-'

The JBL 9.1 sound bar looks pretty dope. The rear speakers are entirely wireless and are charged by connecting them back to the sound bar.

Not sure if using soundbar that bounces sound from the ceiling in a studio with high ceiling makes sense.
In the beginning of the video it looks like there is a cloud diffusor right above him, so the audio signal can't really bounce back.
