Be aware that there is substantial latency when using dolby and less with dts, and little to no latency with linear pcm, however there is a catch. Linear pcm as mention is superior to any due to latency and the fact that it's raw. The problem is, is that if you connect your ps5 to a non-hdmi 2.1 capable reciever, your pcm signal will be reduced to 2 channel instead of the full 7 channel mix. This is because the older hdmi spec on the reciever cannot handle the full bandwidth needed to carry the full linear pcm signal. This is why, in this scenario, that when you turn on dolby it sounds better than pcm(again bc it's being down sampled to 2 channel), but then you have latency(processing overhead). If you were connected to a hdmi 2.1 capable reciever you'd get full audio resolution and no latency which is obviously the uncompromising best case configuration. In summary the best audio will be attained from liner pcm + hdmi 2.1 capable receiver, a wired headset via usb(this is expensive and difficult for people), or the Sony headphones. A good middle ground is DTS + a less than 2.1 reciever where you still get latency, but less than dolby, and better audio quality than liner pcm down sampled to 2 channel. Worse audio configuration is headphone jack on the controller, but no percievable latency. Hopefully that's not too confusing. Sony half requires you to be an audio engineer to understand what configuration is the ideal configuration instead of providing proper literature.
Thank you so much for sharing this information, I didn't know some of them and it helped my knowledge, I appreciate it! Soon, I'll be testing the delay for each mode, with a sound extractor, and I'll consider your notes for the video, thanks again.
So, all this time I've been thinking I was listening to 3D audio, I use a 2K Monitor with Hdmi 2.0 and using PCM Linear, with the Sony Pulse 3D. What do setting do you recommend me to use then?
Because if this comment I literally just retested it just now using Horizon Forbidden west. Yes, there is latency between the time a full bow charge chime places through the controller and the time it takes for the receiver to play the sound. The moment its switch to PCM the delay goes away.
@@CrissJrTheBeatMaker You'll get full resolution with the Sony Pulse 3D headset, leave it on PCM. The problem starts occurring when you send the signal to a device that cannot handle the full bandwidth of the linear PCM signal. This can be seen when viewing what type of signal is being received, by the receiver and what mode it goes into. You may not be able to see this on your monitor however. For you the regular sony headset will offer the best experience unless you have an HDMI 2.1 spec receiver.
after 2 years of owning lg c2 oled i opened dolby atmos on ps5. man the sound from tv became so impressive suround. i now know positioning in games from tv speakers it is amazing
Hello friend Danial. I bought a HDMI Switch with audio extractor to deal with the lack of the SPDIF port on the new consoles. It is working fine and it took me a while to figure it out. The only thing that still tickles me is that I do not know what audio format is being extracted by the SPDIF out? This SPDIF is then connected to my Astros TR through the digital in of course and my headphones are connected to the Astros. All my HDMI inputs are coming from the PS5 and Xbox Series X and in bitstream format but I am not sure if the Astros are receiving it in bitstream or even if the HDMI switch SPDIF port is getting the bitstream? Do you have any idea my friend or anyone in here guys? Thanks for all the nice videos and keep them coming.
What about watching 4k movies on ps5? What audio settings I should configure? Here is my setup: 1. HDMI connects my ps5 to tv (LG G3) 2. Another HDMI connects TV to a receiver via eArc 3. 5.1 channel speakers For some reason, whenever I play 4k movies on ps5, the volume sounds lower than usual so I have to turn it up. Also PCM sounds lower on ps5 home screen than Dolby Atmos. Why?
I have Playstation 3d pulse and audeze penrose headphones. I switched to Dolby Atmos and didn't notice much difference from using linear pcm but when I switched to my Audeze Penrose they were definitely louder than before using the Dolby Atmos selection
Hi, aside from being louder, do you feel the height level from games is different than 3D Audio? If not, there's not much of a difference overall (as there is not actually for headphones.)
@DanielZH yes I feel more immersed in single player games and racing games. For fps games it really didn't help because everything was louder and footsteps were even harder to extinguish but maybe adjusting the penrose eq might help. But my question is, why do you think the Playstation 3d pulse didn't get access to the extra power that the Audeze penrose is getting? I'd say it's a 20 to 25 percent increase in volume
@@SeVeN42095 True, Pulse 3D is overall quieter on PS5 even compared to PC, I'm not sure why, but even when you max all EQ frequencies it's still 10-15dB quieter, maybe they did it on propose or maybe it's just because of EQ to not go over 0dB.
@@DanielZH when i use my steelseries nova pro wireless... i get a lot more volume on the pc than ps5 aswell... using the sonar app there is no sonar app for the ps5 would be cool if you could do a custom version for this headset for the ps5
@hanp2205 I'm using the hyper x 7.1 dongle with 7.1 headphones and both increase the background sounds and I didn't notice any big differences in either dts ,linear pcm, dolby or dolby atmos ,although dolby atmos may have a higher range of highs and lows but that's it all are the same with surround sound .
So i just purchased a pair of astro a50s the main game i play is a fps call rainbow six siege i play on ps5 what is the the best way to set up the audio i also have the hdmi adapter for the astros
@maddoxsetser3749 I have a40s and mix amp. i use a custom 3D sound setting on the ps5. I don't know if you have a mix amp if so, look up the zeference eq settings or the astro home has game specific settings you can't beat it imo. Linear ocm is the best for gaming.
I have three options connecting my ps5 to amplifier running a 2.0 setup. First option is to use a usb to optical adapter to smp. Second option is, to use usb-c to usb-b to amp. Third option is run optical or of tv to amp. Which do you think is the most efficient/give me better sound production? All comments appreciated.
Thank you very much for this content that you provide. I am one of your biggest fans and follow all your content. Unfortunately, when I had the Xbox, I found the Atmos sound very nice, but in the PS5 Pro, the sound is uneven and close to bad. What do you advise me to do to experience optimal sound, especially since I own a Samsung 990C sound bar?
Hi, you have to use the format supported by your device to decode so it can get a correct channel output and features, most headphones accept stereo input and the processing is done on PS5 for 3D Audio not the headset, usually recommended to use Linear PCM unless you have issues (for headphones) or looking for something else.
I got ps5 and 5.1 setup. Console connected to tv. Tv via earc to avn. Tv set to bitstream. Why everyone says that blue ray player shoud be set to bitstream if pcm is best? Also it is said that bitstream is processed in avn and pcm in console. Please explain.
Hello, I use a Bose 600 soundbar ( compatible Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus ) on an LG OLED C3, what are the optimal settings? THANKS
Hi, I didn't have this soundbar but from the information I checked, Dolby should be fine, yet remember it may add audio delay if the TV isn't set correctly to passthrough which I'll cover the delay in the new video soon.
i have a 2k monitor and 2.1 hdmi, for warzone and racing games is best the pcm linear or another one?(i have logitech g pro x cabled as headphone) great video anyway🔥
What about for Blu-rays though? Does the 3D audio and/or Atmos work when watching Blu-rays with a headset (connected via USB)? I can't seem to get a clear answer on this, or just exactly what the best settings to use would be in general when using a headset for Blu-rays.
Currently, I don't think this update adds support to Blu-ray as sony didn't mention it anywhere, it seems to be used as a method to turn Tempest 3D Audio into Dolby format for other devices, even if it supports Blu-ray Dolby someday, I think it'll be used for speakers, not for headphones unless that blu-ray disc has a native mix for headphones (which is less likely on PS5) as on PC we have apps and optimizations on app level for movies that support Dolby for Headphones.
Yo someone help I have Dolby atmos sound bar and it’s all set to Dolby atmos and the ps5 thing is on bitstream but on the 4k movie I’m watching it shows Dolby audio-trueHD and my tv shows Dolby audio. It doesn’t show Dolby atmos how do I get Dolby atmos ..
Finally, the first channel that talks about sound, the only thing that really matters to me. Everyone talks about fps, 4k and I do feel alone (? 😹 I'm not interested on video, I can play pretty fine with 1080p, but, DTS is a *must* for me. Thank you for this. Suscribed!

Hi, up until 2 months ago I tested no, even after the updates, there's still no information about it but when I tested it on PC Vs. PS5 it was different and PS5 did not use Dolby Atmos.
Thanks for the video man, although i have a question. I have the Samsung Q900C and i have a TV with a 2.0 HDMI. It says it can support Dolby Atmos via the HDMI Arc, should i leave the audio format on linear PCM or can i use Dolby Atmos?
I've just discovered today that I have the Dolby Atmos choice finally on both my OG, and also my newly purchased Slim. When exactly did this upgrade come out for us Console owners? And do you think plain and simple "Dolby Atmos" mode has it's advantages above the others?
Hi, it's a few months since the beta I guess, currently there are a few games like Spider-Man 2 which has a Dolby mix (and only in cinematics) we should wait and see what'll happen in the future, here's an update regarding this in Spider-Man 2 and 3D Audio: th-cam.com/video/Iy3G-my7cyA/w-d-xo.html
its a bit annoying that you cant find information about pcm vs dolby setting PS5 for Razer Headset. i have a Razer Kraken Kitty V2 USB Headset and i have no clue which settings i should choose on my PS5: L PCM or Dolby Atmos?? I thought that this headset supports surround sound, but the manual doesnt say what to choose on the PS5. Should i use PCM or Dolby Atmos for the Kraken Kitty V2?
Hey danial. I have some crackling issues on loud noises on my wireless headset. Do you think I could solve this issue by using a compressed audio format like dts, or dolby instead of PCM? The reason I ask is because I red that audio output settings don't make a difference for aux or wifi dongle headsets and only work for soundbars and Tv. Is that really true? Because in your testing they do work on wireless and aux headsets

@@DanielZHThank you for the reply. I don’t have any specific eq settings for Astro A50 that’s why I thought to ask you is that possible for you to create some eq for Astro A50 PlayStation version because when I try eq presets from online they are recommending to use Dolby access but PlayStation version of Astro A50 doesn’t support Dolby Access so if you can deep dive into some eq settings that will be greatly appreciated because I don’t see any videos on TH-cam for the PlayStation version of Astro A50

if your soundbar supports Dolby Atmos or Dolby Audio Decoding, then you can use it, otherwise, Linear PCM may sound better, don't forget that even if your soundbar supports Dolby atmos, you still may get better results with linear PCM depending on the game you're playing.
@@cipriandjbril I suggest trying both, as each soundbar may produce audio differently, try Dolby Atmos for 10 minutes then switch to DTS and see which sounds better, as the PS5 tempest 3D isn't good in all games.
Hi Guys, Wondering if anyone can help me here. For a while now I have been getting crackling, static, robotic sounds coming through my headset intermittently. Initially I thought it was my headset so I replaced that have tried wireless and wired headset and it still happens. I have replaced the controller, swapped to another PS5 as I have 2, changed all the cables and still can't get rid of the sound. Has anyone experienced this and know how I could fix it? The only thing I haven't replaced is my monitor? Not sure what else to do😑
Thanks for the video man very informative. However I have a question. I have a Sony oled a80L with a Sony ht-a3000 soundbar and also have the rear speakers with the sub for the setup. What would you recommend for my sound settings? Btw I’m using an audio quest ocean cable for the ps5 to the tv which does support 4k-10k with 48gbps but with my sound bar I have an older audio quest cable which is the chocolate with high speed Ethernet, I plan on grabbing another ocean for the soundbar since it supports 2.1 with the 48gbps if It’ll work better then with the chocolate cable, so if you know I’d like your suggestion on that too. I also use the Sony inzone earbuds from time to time and if you can help me with the proper settings for that I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for your time….
Hey your video ist very informative! 👍🏻 What audio format and settings would you recommand to me with my Samsung Q990B surround sound setup? I noticed a sound delay when im on Dolby Atmos/Dolby Audio btw 😅
Hi, this soundbar supports multichannel and Dolby Atmos, if it's connected to your TV wirelessly, you must ensure your TV can support wireless Dolby Atmos audio output, and not every TV supports that, Dolby Atmos overall is for this soundbar if it can decode it depending on your TV model and how you connected it.
Hi, yes, 3D audio is processed on the console, so any headphone can support it, I recommend Linear PCM for headphones and 3D Audio depending on the game, some games sound amazing with that some don't which we have a playlist of tested games and personal opinions here: th-cam.com/play/PLfzrQ3H5ECSb94ScaAy57H8hX3FTqQQih.html
I have a soundbar with a 2.1 sound system, what should I choose in the settings of the av receiver or soundbar? dolby atmos or pcm? Please help me my friend 🙏🏼
But, how do you setup the PS5 for folks who use HDMI from PS5 to Samsung TV and then the sound exits the TV via Optical cable and goes to a Bose Lifestyle system via Optical? Does it matter since the final processing is done in this case via the Bose? Bose seems to have either PCM or Dolby5.1 setting only
Hi, which Bose Lifestyle system? it will decode the audio, not the encoding, if it only has Dolby 5.1 and not atmos use Dolby Audio with AV on the console set to 5.1ch and you're good to go > for TV settings ensure to use the same decoding (if it has) if it doesn't have Dolby than things get harder to setup (or passthrough if it has).
hi danial, thanks for video. I would use my Phidelio X2/hr cabled, so i thought to connect ps5 to a DAC/amp (like iFI Zen Dac v2) but the connection by usb cannot use max sample rate, and it goes only at 44khz. So, what do u think if a connect ps5 to tv, and then tv to an amp with hdmi arc to connect my headphone? connection by hdmi should be better of usb, but im not sure that tv gives the whole audio to the amp. (TV samsung oled s90c) what do u think?
Typically lower dynamic range modes like TV mode or soundbar mode in games! +Linear pcm in most cases unless you have a soundbar that supports dolby and your TV can passthrough it
Hi, Dolby Atmos should work fine if your device supports it, if not, Try Dolby Audio, if it doesn't support that either, Linear PCM and 5.1 is the correct output mode as your system is 5.1
Hi, im getting Audeze Maxwell headset for my ps5, which is supposed to be the best headset u can get rn. My question is what will be the best settings on ps5 for this headset?
Hi, both Audeze Maxwell and Nova Pro are great headphones for PS5, in terms of Audeze, since I haven't tested it, I can't be sure which format could be the best yet. I'm also planning to get one if the overpriced retails drop it a bit here.
@@DanielZH cant wait for ur vid about them in the future. I was wondering if I should use linear PCM or dolby audio as i dont have a hdmi 2.1 receiver for my ps5. I heard that u need that for linear PCM to keep 7 channel passthrough
@@MartinLiskaJr Yes, LPCM is probably the best option in most cases as I don't know any game that has a Native Dolby mix for headphones (in stereo) that would provide benefits but mostly in scripted parts.
Very good video man. I have a question for you: Is it snormal that when i put Dolby Audio i feel like the sound is more pumped but when i put Dolby Atmos is less pumped? I can hear that immediatly when i'm in the menu. Thank you.
Hi, PS5 doesn't have an Optical port, so you must use your TV optical out (if it has one), and that way you can get it. or HDMI ARC eARC if your sound system supports that input.
Hey, I have some questions. My setup is as follows: PS5 hooked up to hdmi 2.1 TV and a 5.1.2 Atmos soundbar (Q800C) hooked up to the tv with eARC, with the TV set to passthrough audio. So the audio signal from my PS5 goes straight from my ps5 to my 5.1.2 Atmos soundbar, and both 7.1/5.1 LPCM and Atmos are fully supported. I'm trying to decide on the best PS5 audio settings. I used to have it set to Atmos, which works perfectly. TV reports a DTHD signal coming in, passing it through by eARC, and the soundbar says it's receiving Atmos. However I am now wondering if I'm better off setting the PS5 to LPCM, because I see people talking about all kinds of bugs with different games when Atmos is enabled. I thought enabling Atmos would basically just give the PS5 access to all Atmos channels, and when a game doesn't use 3D audio, that it would simply send the plain default 5.1 or 7.1 signal within the Atmos container, and that there wouldn't be any difference between LPCM and Atmos in that case. Both DTHD and LPCM are lossless right? Could you tell me whether I should keep using Atmos or just choose LPCM? And as a follow up, when using LPCM, should I choose 5.1 or 7.1 for my 5.1.2 soundbar? Is it best to let the soundbar handle the downscaling of the additional 2 channels? Or should I let the PS5 handle this? I'm worried it might limit a game's audio capabilities in some way, and I was thinking that maybe the soundbar has some processing going on that allows it to still put the 7.1 channels to good use by adding an effect to it, to make it still kinda distinguishable even though it's coming through the 5.1 channels. And lastly, should I set the speaker positions to the actual positions of the soundbar in terms of degrees, or should I just leave it to default?
@@SamuelBurks-op3xw Well, through my own testing and research I have come to the following conclusions: -The Soundbar and TV settings on the PS5 are the exact same audio signal, but these settings are reported to games, so that the in-game audio settings will (when a game has those settings) also be set to either the TV or Soundbar (or home cinema when AV receiver is chosen in the PS5 audio settings) audio profile. This often determines the dynamic range that's applied to the game's audio. When a game is set to TV for example, the dynamic range (difference between loudest and quietest) will be smaller than when set so something like home cinema. -The Soundbar and TV options will always output the maximum supported (reported by the device that's hooked up, the TV in my case) amount of channels. So in my case they will both output 7.1 channels, while the AV receiver setting lets you choose between 7.1, 5.1 and 2.0 yourself. When the AV Receiver option is also set to 7.1, there is no difference in audio signal compared to TV or Soundbar, which can be deduced by the fact that there is no short pause in the audio when switching between them. It doesn't actually switch to a different type of output signal so there is no short pause that signifies the switching that's happening. The pause/switch DOES happen when you set AV Reveicer to 5.1 and then switch between that and either TV or Soundbar. So in summary, TV, Soundbar, and AV Receiver 7.1 are all the exact same audio signal. AV Receiver 5.1 is different simply because it's 5.1 instead of 7.1. -My soundbar (Samsung Q800C) does in fact process the additional 2 surround channels on 7.1 vs 5.1 a little differently, so it does in fact offer a different/more complete surround sound than plain 5.1, even though it physically only has 5.1 channels to play through. -For some reason the Dolby Audio format on PS5 only outputs a Dolby Digital 5.1 signal for my setup, instead of Dolby Digital Plus 7.1. When selecting AV Receiver 7.1 and Dolby Audio, it only outputs 5.1. Switching the PS5 between 5.1 or 7.1 does not result in a pause in the audio, and both my Soundbar and TV just keep reporting they're receiving a Dolby Digital audio signal, instead of Dolby Digital Plus which would be needed for 7.1. This is trange as my setup definitely supports DD+ 7.1, but I have a feeling the PS5 simply doesn't support DD+, but only DD so only 5.1 when choosing Dolby Audio is your format on PS5. So, don't use it if you want 7.1. -The Dolby Atmos setting always outputs 7.1 (over Dolby TrueHD in my case), and can never be changed to 5.1, which is fine. -LPCM is also always 7.1, except when setting the PS5 to AV Receiver 5.1. -I have not been able to find out whether there is a difference in "speaker position" settings between any of the options, and I suspect that by default they all just use the default settings that are seen in the settings menu for the AV Receiver option. So I don't think there's any reason to let it influence your decision. -Dolby Atmos is only useful to choose when a game uses the Tempest 3D audio engine, which almost no game uses. This means there is not benefit to it compared to regular LPCM 7.1. I would recommend to not use it, as I've seen reports of bugs in terms of active channels and audio placement on wrong channels and such when a regular 7.1 game is converted to Dolby Atmos. Setting the PS5 to plain 7.1 will assure all games correctly output their audio without any bugs. In the end, for my setup, I have chosen to use Soundbar with LPCM. This outputs 7.1 LPCM. I could choose AV Receiver 7.1, but purely because I'm not 100% sure about the "speaker placement" thing, I'm going for the Soundbar option just in case the AV Receiver option deviates from any sort of unprocessed speaker placement setting and instead changes it to the exact default settings when choosing AV Receiver. It probably doesn't matter though. Then, in games, I just verify whether the audio settings are correct, and I preferrably have the game set to home cinema (or something similar). Additionally, which is very specific to my soundbar, 7.1 and 5.1 sound identical in the soundbar's "standard" mode, but when using "adaptive" the 7.1 audio sounds a lot worse, way more muffled, than when using "standard". With a 5.1 signal though, "adaptive" behaves as expected and adds a bit more clarity to things like voices. But standard is the way to go anyways, as it gives a more accurate and true surround sound. So, with the Q800C, don't use adaptive for 7.1, only for 5.1, but I recommend to use standard anyway. Hope this helps you, and if you have any questions I'd love to hear them!
@@JorisKeijser sorry for the late response here, but I really appreciate the in depth explanation & pros/cons. I screenshot this convo to have something to look back at in the future if necessary.

I have a hdmi 2.1 slot with eARC/ARC And it’s been default to pcm but it sometimes sound muffled and low on certain games. I’m trying Dolby Atmos and seeing how well it works out
Hi, typically Dolby Mix on non-native games wouldn't make a huge difference in terms of muffled sound, but you can try and see if it sounds better for you! there's not a noticeable delay from PS5 either.
Hi, if you feel gun shots are way too loud, using Dolby Atmos (from what I tested) will compress them a little (in high frequencies) otherwise the Dolby Audio is fine, and linear PCM is also fine. there's not a huge difference for that.

Can you write briefly How best to set these headphones for the best quality sound for FPS, TPS. for example resident evil, TLOU, Rainbow six, COD.
Hi, thanks, what's you main language? I can add auto translate, but you can also use a plugin named "Immersive Translate" regarding 3D Audio, it's very dependent on the game, some games may use it better or give you better output based on their design, there's not much that could be done regarding that, except testing both 3D and stereo, and using the one that sounds better to you!

So I got in this video because I am trying to solve an issue on Livestreaming through PS4/PS5, which is for some reason the Voice audio from NPCs/Characters has an echo (they are doubled) you can only hear if you are watching the stream, and here I though if PCM Linear, DTS, Dolby Atmos or Dolby has something to do with that problem? or its a Playstation problem itself with their livestream system.

I got a question. I had a sony gold headset on my ps4 and I could hear footsteps perfectly and know exactly where the enemy was in wz 1 and mw1. Now I got a steelseries 9 and ps5 and I suddenly can’t locate the enemy anymore. I can’t hear if the enemy is above me or under me anymore. To be clear I hear the footsteps loud and well but I just can’t locate it anymore especially not knowing if the enemy is under me or above me is quite irritating. I tried adjusting the EQ of the headset and turning off 3D audio etc but nothing get me that surround sound feeling of the ps4 and the cheap sony headset. Can you help me with this? Thanks in regards.
As you copied the same question in 3 videos I pasted the same answer for you: every headset has a different kind of sound stage and response frequencies are dependent on the settings and if they provide a setting for that, and it also depends on your ear shape, so you may feel a headset sounds like things are around you while another feels like the sound is coming inside your head (for example Pulse 3D Vs Inzone H3 feel like that) and to me personally the ones that have a better sound stage and can feel like the sound is coming from an outside speaker are better to hear directions, I'm not sure about the models you mentioned as I didn't have any of those, but pay attention to sound stage and how it feels when testing or checking from Rtings .com they provide good info about this.
great video as always. based on the tests on warzone, in terms of audio quality for the steps do you think it is better to use EQ with dolby atmos or EQ with linear pcm?
Hi, I personally use Dolby Atmos as it helps with high frequencies to reduce them a bit and not get a headache, aside from that, in the last test Dolby had 1-2dB more compression on average (Due to Treble compression) so it was better for me overall.
Hi im currently using astro a40s wired headset connected to my PS5 dualsense edge controller..would you recommend linear PCM or DTS for the best audio quality available ?
Hi, from the test I made controller audio quality is a bit low, they sound very similar (LPCM or DTS) but depending on your headset, DTS may sound better, I recommend trying both for 10 minutes and see which sounds better to you.
Danial please I need you're help answer this comment please ( I have a JBL quantum one headset which is supposed to be the top of the line headset and I bought it to play call of duty war zone and dominate noobs with it but for some reason when I try to change the audio output configuration to 7.1 or less it keeps going back to stereo and I can't use the features of the headset please let me know what you think I should check all adjust to be able to use it properly . thanks a lot brother
@@Mohammedako123456789 JBL is a good headphone, yes, but for music production or listening to music... in games it will always be recognized as stereo because you only have two speakers on the left and right side
So ket me ask this question. I have an Avr setup with height speakers 5.1.2 fullybatmos capable and the latest hdmi 2.1 I currently uae the atmos setting on Ps5 but i xan also use lpcm and the use the AVR to upmix to Neural X or Dilby surround. Both of these would use the height speakers. Woukd thia be better than using the Atmos setting in the PS5??
That sounds good, I would say decide by the game, most first-party games support all channels in both Linear PCM and Dolby Atmos, but some other games only support full channels in LPCM mode. so yeah it's kinda dependent on the game, the point of Dolby Atmos support was to provide Tempest 3D audio capabilities to Dolby Atmos devices. when there's not a Native or Good 3D Audio support on a game, then LPCM might be a better choice.
Hi, I recommend Linear PCM for your headset, Dolby Audio seems to be outputting the same 3D Audio, Atmos is a bit quiet on the headset and the frequencies don't sound correct on the headset (if that matters to you), however, I should also test the audio delay to give a final decision, the most important thing is to have low delay for gaming.
I use hdmi 3 on my Q80T Samsung for arc, the hidmi cable goes to my arc extractor and I run optical out to the back of the extractor to the TR mixamp. I currently select the dolby setting on my PS5 should I switch to linear PCM? Thanks
@@gw2752 Hello again, have you tested a direct USB connection to PS5? I guess, this way that you're using it will add a noticeable delay, I don't have the mix amp to test but I'm guessing there's a delay on your TV with Optical over arc with Dolby, of course I must test the delay on PS5 first, then I give you a recommendation, still, PCM typically should have a less delay. but let's wait a little longer until I test it. if you set to LPCM set the TV to that too.
Hi, the mixamp is connected to the PS5 via usb, PS5 set to dolby and voice chat only as the sound goes to the mixamp via the optical cable to the back of the mix amp, that way I can use the audio / chat balance on the mix amp and the mic ru s through the moxamp usb to the PS5. There is no delay. Thanks :)
There is delay if I run the optical straight from the back of the tv to the mix amp that's when I use hadmi arc adapter as it passes through with no delay :)
@@DanielZH Hi Daniel sorry for asking too many questions but i have the same tv as you LG C2 , what are your sound recommendations for ai sound pro PS5.
Hey, I love your vids, keep them coming. As a noob in your area of expertise I'd like to ask you what is your advice for my situation. I have hyperx 7.1 headset but curently I am using Truthear Zero x Crinical IEM and I love them. My current setup for warzone 2 are Zero IEM connected via joystick and I am using stereo option with linear PCM. I am quite satisfied with it but I wanted to check with you if you have any advice to up my sound quality i game.
Hi can you give us a fix for the delay that the R2 has when pressed multiple times fast it start not register I noticed it very hard in the hero ashe from overwatch 2 when shooting without zooming down sight I thought it was my controller but i tried it at a friend house with 2 different controller and the issue is there This is a really big deal for online games I hope you touch on this subject ❤
Hi, it's interesting I noticed the same thing last night I was trying to make a new setting video for Ashe! I'm working on it and will share the settings, for now, I recommend keeping the zone on 0-100 and trying zone 3 on the controller, this is the fastest way.
Hey @DanielZH i have two front speekers (Dali Oberon 7) and a (Nad Amplifier C356BEE) Its connected to my LG c1 tv and ps5 with bluetooth. What is the best sound settings in ps5 for this setup? Linear PCM - 2 CH and av amplifier?? Or do you recomend another setup setting? Hope you can help me out with this🙏🏽🤞🏽 and thank you for all the awesome work you do for us gamers🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hi, is it connected to TV by Bluetooth? isn't it better to connect with optical or HDMI eARC if it supports it for higher quality and lower latency? I would suggest av amplifier 2ch for this setup with linear PCM.
@@DanielZH yeah my C1 is connected to my amplifier with a Bluetooth device😅 Argon something..a bluetooth box/connector😅 but your right i think i need to connect the tv with a optical or hdmi Earc instead🙏🏽👌🏽 - thank you for the settings help and fast respons mate🙏🏽😁
Your videos are music to my ears when it comes to specifics and what not. Sometimes you're too smart for me lol. I have to ask you a simple question. For someone with a PS5 and the Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 super amp headset... What specific audio settings do you recommend for headphones. I'm currently on 3D enabled (default) with Dolby Atmos.
Hi, thanks, there is a lot to learn about audio! about Turtle Beach headset, I'd recommend Linear PCM with 3D on or off depending on the game, for example Spider-Man 2 or Returnal has a great 3D Audio support, Dolby is not needed when using a headset as long as the game uses a Tempest 3D Engine at its base (Most of PS5 Games)
Tried dolby atmos playing cyberpunk 2077 with a LG soundbar (dolby atmos capable) and the sound is outstanding… but the delay is too much, it brokes lip sync, i had to go back to linear pcm 😢
I also have a Samsung Dolby Atmos soundbar along with two surround speakers and noticed when using Dolby Atmos, the sound will disconnect for a second around every 20 minutes or so and then reconnects again, anyone else have this problem?
Hi, i've found a couple of videos i've seen so far from your channel to be good. So, i've subscribed! I have a concern about Dolby Atmos. I recently bought a LG Posé TV (55LX1QPSA) which has such audio quality, but when i choose it in the PS5 system, it drops the sound quite a bit compared to PCM Lineal. Do you know why it happens? It's worth mentioning that as soon as i noticed the difference, i immediately switched it back to PCM Lineal. Without having tested Dolby Atmos inside a game.
Hi, thanks for the sub, I'm unsure about your TV settings, have you checked and ensured the audio from HDMI decoding is set to Dolby Atmos? + Remember not every game sounds good + I'd still recommend Linear PCM for TVs with 3D Audio Off.
Hi, thanks, yes I'd prefer Stereo in 95%+ of the games, only returnal and deadspace are really good. nothing (in a stereo system) will sound like a real surround sound system.
Apparently tempest 3d has more object based total sound range compared to dolby, better keep it on and games where 3d is not an option, keep it 5.1 or other surround settings it has and then there are games without any audio settings, in which keeping the 3d on will still make it better overall, still hope sony would add virtual surround features for headphones and dacs like creative soundblaster x g1/g6 which has discrete 5.1/7.1 channel surround potential but those dacs are usb based and anything plugged into ps5 via usb is turned into stereo, ps5 does not allow other devices to do audio process at all unless it is done via optical out or likely hdmi arc, even their own headsets like gold or platinum's VSS feature are not allowed on ps5
Hi, yes the way I used to test headphones output but with 7.1CH was using an HDMI Sound Extractor because otherwise it'll output stereo and there's no way you can change that. another issue with PS5 is multi audio streaming, it can't output to headset and HDMI simultaneously, so when I want to use headphones but record gameplay in capture card, the audio will be off, only 1 output at a time which forces me to get audio monitoring devices for that propuse, very limited.
Great video. Entertaining content so had to sub! Can you plz do a video testing out the astro a40tr on warzone at 1440p & 120hz? Find the best audio settings from dolby audio, atmos and pc. Astro says to use dolby audio but playstation has recently added atmos so it could be better maybe 😊
Hi, thanks, I'll look into it, I plan to support more headphones and settings, but there are a lot of models people ask for so I'm not sure which to get first and they're not cheap!
@damesdamo Hi, how do you use astro a40 with 1440p 120hz? I use a 1440p 144hz with two hdmi 2.0 cable and the ps5 have a limit to 1080p 120hz Sorry for my bad english anyway
@gabstr You need a hdmi audio extractor to use the a40tr at 1440p 120hz, I will send the link below. It's what I use for my astros to work at 1440p 120hz

Jesus is lord repent yourself
@@angelangelo1988Jesus would not approve of your post.
Be aware that there is substantial latency when using dolby and less with dts, and little to no latency with linear pcm, however there is a catch. Linear pcm as mention is superior to any due to latency and the fact that it's raw. The problem is, is that if you connect your ps5 to a non-hdmi 2.1 capable reciever, your pcm signal will be reduced to 2 channel instead of the full 7 channel mix. This is because the older hdmi spec on the reciever cannot handle the full bandwidth needed to carry the full linear pcm signal. This is why, in this scenario, that when you turn on dolby it sounds better than pcm(again bc it's being down sampled to 2 channel), but then you have latency(processing overhead). If you were connected to a hdmi 2.1 capable reciever you'd get full audio resolution and no latency which is obviously the uncompromising best case configuration. In summary the best audio will be attained from liner pcm + hdmi 2.1 capable receiver, a wired headset via usb(this is expensive and difficult for people), or the Sony headphones. A good middle ground is DTS + a less than 2.1 reciever where you still get latency, but less than dolby, and better audio quality than liner pcm down sampled to 2 channel. Worse audio configuration is headphone jack on the controller, but no percievable latency. Hopefully that's not too confusing. Sony half requires you to be an audio engineer to understand what configuration is the ideal configuration instead of providing proper literature.
Thank you so much for sharing this information, I didn't know some of them and it helped my knowledge, I appreciate it!
Soon, I'll be testing the delay for each mode, with a sound extractor, and I'll consider your notes for the video, thanks again.
So, all this time I've been thinking I was listening to 3D audio, I use a 2K Monitor with Hdmi 2.0 and using PCM Linear, with the Sony Pulse 3D. What do setting do you recommend me to use then?
What are you talking about? There is no Dolby atmos latency on the PS5. Only on Xbox. This is misinformation
Because if this comment I literally just retested it just now using Horizon Forbidden west. Yes, there is latency between the time a full bow charge chime places through the controller and the time it takes for the receiver to play the sound. The moment its switch to PCM the delay goes away.
@@CrissJrTheBeatMaker You'll get full resolution with the Sony Pulse 3D headset, leave it on PCM. The problem starts occurring when you send the signal to a device that cannot handle the full bandwidth of the linear PCM signal. This can be seen when viewing what type of signal is being received, by the receiver and what mode it goes into. You may not be able to see this on your monitor however. For you the regular sony headset will offer the best experience unless you have an HDMI 2.1 spec receiver.
after 2 years of owning lg c2 oled i opened dolby atmos on ps5. man the sound from tv became so impressive suround. i now know positioning in games from tv speakers it is amazing
Hello friend Danial. I bought a HDMI Switch with audio extractor to deal with the lack of the SPDIF port on the new consoles. It is working fine and it took me a while to figure it out. The only thing that still tickles me is that I do not know what audio format is being extracted by the SPDIF out? This SPDIF is then connected to my Astros TR through the digital in of course and my headphones are connected to the Astros. All my HDMI inputs are coming from the PS5 and Xbox Series X and in bitstream format but I am not sure if the Astros are receiving it in bitstream or even if the HDMI switch SPDIF port is getting the bitstream? Do you have any idea my friend or anyone in here guys? Thanks for all the nice videos and keep them coming.
What about watching 4k movies on ps5? What audio settings I should configure? Here is my setup:
1. HDMI connects my ps5 to tv (LG G3)
2. Another HDMI connects TV to a receiver via eArc
3. 5.1 channel speakers
For some reason, whenever I play 4k movies on ps5, the volume sounds lower than usual so I have to turn it up.
Also PCM sounds lower on ps5 home screen than Dolby Atmos. Why?
I have Playstation 3d pulse and audeze penrose headphones. I switched to Dolby Atmos and didn't notice much difference from using linear pcm but when I switched to my Audeze Penrose they were definitely louder than before using the Dolby Atmos selection
Hi, aside from being louder, do you feel the height level from games is different than 3D Audio? If not, there's not much of a difference overall (as there is not actually for headphones.)
@DanielZH yes I feel more immersed in single player games and racing games. For fps games it really didn't help because everything was louder and footsteps were even harder to extinguish but maybe adjusting the penrose eq might help. But my question is, why do you think the Playstation 3d pulse didn't get access to the extra power that the Audeze penrose is getting? I'd say it's a 20 to 25 percent increase in volume
@@SeVeN42095 True, Pulse 3D is overall quieter on PS5 even compared to PC, I'm not sure why, but even when you max all EQ frequencies it's still 10-15dB quieter, maybe they did it on propose or maybe it's just because of EQ to not go over 0dB.
@@DanielZH when i use my steelseries nova pro wireless... i get a lot more volume on the pc than ps5 aswell... using the sonar app there is no sonar app for the ps5 would be cool if you could do a custom version for this headset for the ps5
@hanp2205 I'm using the hyper x 7.1 dongle with 7.1 headphones and both increase the background sounds and I didn't notice any big differences in either dts ,linear pcm, dolby or dolby atmos ,although dolby atmos may have a higher range of highs and lows but that's it all are the same with surround sound .
How can open the Equalizer Option?
Its only for Wireless?
Hi, yes only for Pulse 3D with Dongle.
Oh okay, can you say me whats the best Audio setting for cable Headset, linear, atmos or dolby Audio?..
@@NesTy096 as long as your headset doesn't support Dolby natively, Linear PCM is the best option.
So i just purchased a pair of astro a50s the main game i play is a fps call rainbow six siege i play on ps5 what is the the best way to set up the audio i also have the hdmi adapter for the astros
@maddoxsetser3749 I have a40s and mix amp. i use a custom 3D sound setting on the ps5. I don't know if you have a mix amp if so, look up the zeference eq settings or the astro home has game specific settings you can't beat it imo. Linear ocm is the best for gaming.
I have three options connecting my ps5 to amplifier running a 2.0 setup. First option is to use a usb to optical adapter to smp. Second option is, to use usb-c to usb-b to amp. Third option is run optical or of tv to amp. Which do you think is the most efficient/give me better sound production? All comments appreciated.
Hi, as far as my experience goes, TV is not always the best option, I'd say try USB options and see which is better.
Thank you very much for this content that you provide. I am one of your biggest fans and follow all your content. Unfortunately, when I had the Xbox, I found the Atmos sound very nice, but in the PS5 Pro, the sound is uneven and close to bad. What do you advise me to do to experience optimal sound, especially since I own a Samsung 990C sound bar?
The best 3D sound is DTS sound unbound? I have LG pro x headphones, all my games will use DTS:X headphones?
Hi, you have to use the format supported by your device to decode so it can get a correct channel output and features, most headphones accept stereo input and the processing is done on PS5 for 3D Audio not the headset, usually recommended to use Linear PCM unless you have issues (for headphones) or looking for something else.
@@DanielZH I'm talking about the PC)
I got ps5 and 5.1 setup. Console connected to tv. Tv via earc to avn. Tv set to bitstream. Why everyone says that blue ray player shoud be set to bitstream if pcm is best? Also it is said that bitstream is processed in avn and pcm in console. Please explain.
Hello, I use a Bose 600 soundbar ( compatible Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus ) on an LG OLED C3, what are the optimal settings? THANKS
Hi, I didn't have this soundbar but from the information I checked, Dolby should be fine, yet remember it may add audio delay if the TV isn't set correctly to passthrough which I'll cover the delay in the new video soon.
I just got the hta 3000 and the two speakers for the 36p Spatial Audio. How do I make it the best for my ps5
I’ve noticed no delay when using atmos
I'll be testing that in a future video!
No delay when using Atmos for me either
i have a 2k monitor and 2.1 hdmi, for warzone and racing games is best the pcm linear or another one?(i have logitech g pro x cabled as headphone)
great video anyway🔥
Thanks for the tips!
@@DanielZH which one do you recommend, the pcm linear or another one?
What about for Blu-rays though? Does the 3D audio and/or Atmos work when watching Blu-rays with a headset (connected via USB)? I can't seem to get a clear answer on this, or just exactly what the best settings to use would be in general when using a headset for Blu-rays.
Currently, I don't think this update adds support to Blu-ray as sony didn't mention it anywhere, it seems to be used as a method to turn Tempest 3D Audio into Dolby format for other devices, even if it supports Blu-ray Dolby someday, I think it'll be used for speakers, not for headphones unless that blu-ray disc has a native mix for headphones (which is less likely on PS5) as on PC we have apps and optimizations on app level for movies that support Dolby for Headphones.
Yo someone help I have Dolby atmos sound bar and it’s all set to Dolby atmos and the ps5 thing is on bitstream but on the 4k movie I’m watching it shows Dolby audio-trueHD and my tv shows Dolby audio. It doesn’t show Dolby atmos how do I get Dolby atmos ..
I have a 2.1 soundbar connected directly to the TV through hdmi arc , do I set it to linear pcm or dolby audio?
Im using a fossi k5 dac and bose qc35 for warzone should I use Dolby
Finally, the first channel that talks about sound, the only thing that really matters to me. Everyone talks about fps, 4k and I do feel alone (? 😹 I'm not interested on video, I can play pretty fine with 1080p, but, DTS is a *must* for me.
Thank you for this. Suscribed!

what about soundbars ?
if your soundbar supports Dolby Atmos or Dolby Audio Decoding, then you can use it, otherwise, Linear PCM may sound better, don't forget that even if your soundbar supports Dolby atmos, you still may get better results with linear PCM depending on the game you're playing.
for example i have this soundbar samsung hw-q60b
and the manufacturer saids it suports dts and dolby atmos
so wich one you suggest using ?
@@cipriandjbril I suggest trying both, as each soundbar may produce audio differently, try Dolby Atmos for 10 minutes then switch to DTS and see which sounds better, as the PS5 tempest 3D isn't good in all games.
Hi Guys,
Wondering if anyone can help me here.
For a while now I have been getting crackling, static, robotic sounds coming through my headset intermittently. Initially I thought it was my headset so I replaced that have tried wireless and wired headset and it still happens. I have replaced the controller, swapped to another PS5 as I have 2, changed all the cables and still can't get rid of the sound.
Has anyone experienced this and know how I could fix it? The only thing I haven't replaced is my monitor?
Not sure what else to do😑
Thanks for the video man very informative. However I have a question. I have a Sony oled a80L with a Sony ht-a3000 soundbar and also have the rear speakers with the sub for the setup. What would you recommend for my sound settings? Btw I’m using an audio quest ocean cable for the ps5 to the tv which does support 4k-10k with 48gbps but with my sound bar I have an older audio quest cable which is the chocolate with high speed Ethernet, I plan on grabbing another ocean for the soundbar since it supports 2.1 with the 48gbps if It’ll work better then with the chocolate cable, so if you know I’d like your suggestion on that too. I also use the Sony inzone earbuds from time to time and if you can help me with the proper settings for that I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for your time….
Can I use it in my soundbar that support Dolby Atoms
Yes, if it doesn't have so much delay, you can use it!
Hey your video ist very informative! 👍🏻
What audio format and settings would you recommand to me with my Samsung Q990B surround sound setup?
I noticed a sound delay when im on Dolby Atmos/Dolby Audio btw 😅
Hi, this soundbar supports multichannel and Dolby Atmos, if it's connected to your TV wirelessly, you must ensure your TV can support wireless Dolby Atmos audio output, and not every TV supports that, Dolby Atmos overall is for this soundbar if it can decode it depending on your TV model and how you connected it.
Hi, is 3D Audio supported in my 1000XM4?
What settings do you recommend for these headphones? Thanks
Hi, yes, 3D audio is processed on the console, so any headphone can support it, I recommend Linear PCM for headphones and 3D Audio depending on the game, some games sound amazing with that some don't which we have a playlist of tested games and personal opinions here: th-cam.com/play/PLfzrQ3H5ECSb94ScaAy57H8hX3FTqQQih.html

Hi, I don't know tbh, haven't had a Bluray Dolby Disc to test it.
So what would be the best for comp games like siege dayz and xdefient for shooters? I use atmos on PC but idk how different it is on ps5
But, how do you setup the PS5 for folks who use HDMI from PS5 to Samsung TV and then the sound exits the TV via Optical cable and goes to a Bose Lifestyle system via Optical? Does it matter since the final processing is done in this case via the Bose? Bose seems to have either PCM or Dolby5.1 setting only
Hi, which Bose Lifestyle system? it will decode the audio, not the encoding, if it only has Dolby 5.1 and not atmos use Dolby Audio with AV on the console set to 5.1ch and you're good to go > for TV settings ensure to use the same decoding (if it has) if it doesn't have Dolby than things get harder to setup (or passthrough if it has).

hi danial, thanks for video. I would use my Phidelio X2/hr cabled, so i thought to connect ps5 to a DAC/amp (like iFI Zen Dac v2) but the connection by usb cannot use max sample rate, and it goes only at 44khz. So, what do u think if a connect ps5 to tv, and then tv to an amp with hdmi arc to connect my headphone? connection by hdmi should be better of usb, but im not sure that tv gives the whole audio to the amp. (TV samsung oled s90c)
what do u think?
If i listen through my tv what is the best setting for audio?
Typically lower dynamic range modes like TV mode or soundbar mode in games!
+Linear pcm in most cases unless you have a soundbar that supports dolby and your TV can passthrough it
@ alright good to know 👍
If i change to dolby atmos i got a delay for like a second HELP
So the best setting for a 5.1.2 via eARC from hdmi 2.1 is linear pcm or Dolby Atmos ? Also should I put 5.1 or 7.1 in the ps5 settings? Thanks
Hi, Dolby Atmos should work fine if your device supports it, if not, Try Dolby Audio, if it doesn't support that either, Linear PCM and 5.1 is the correct output mode as your system is 5.1
im Using Beyerdynamic MMX300 with soundcard SoundblasterX G6 optical is in the tv and hdmi in the PS5 what is the Best Setting for me now

Hi, im getting Audeze Maxwell headset for my ps5, which is supposed to be the best headset u can get rn. My question is what will be the best settings on ps5 for this headset?
Hi, both Audeze Maxwell and Nova Pro are great headphones for PS5, in terms of Audeze, since I haven't tested it, I can't be sure which format could be the best yet. I'm also planning to get one if the overpriced retails drop it a bit here.
@@DanielZH cant wait for ur vid about them in the future. I was wondering if I should use linear PCM or dolby audio as i dont have a hdmi 2.1 receiver for my ps5. I heard that u need that for linear PCM to keep 7 channel passthrough
@@MartinLiskaJr Yes, LPCM is probably the best option in most cases as I don't know any game that has a Native Dolby mix for headphones (in stereo) that would provide benefits but mostly in scripted parts.

Very good video man. I have a question for you: Is it snormal that when i put Dolby Audio i feel like the sound is more pumped but when i put Dolby Atmos is less pumped? I can hear that immediatly when i'm in the menu. Thank you.
Hi, on which device? I felt that on headphones and Dolby Atmos is quieter.
@@DanielZH No without headphones and without sound bar. Just a TV Sony and of course a ps5
@@GENKIDAMA10 Yes, so it seems the mix is just louder on Dolby Audio for some reason, I have the same experience on my Capture card too.
@@DanielZH So louder doesn’t mean better right? In terms of quality audio
Hey question is there a way i can conect my dolby 3d seround system on the ps5 ..on the ps4 i needed only 1 kabel
Hi, PS5 doesn't have an Optical port, so you must use your TV optical out (if it has one), and that way you can get it. or HDMI ARC eARC if your sound system supports that input.
Hey, I have some questions.
My setup is as follows: PS5 hooked up to hdmi 2.1 TV and a 5.1.2 Atmos soundbar (Q800C) hooked up to the tv with eARC, with the TV set to passthrough audio. So the audio signal from my PS5 goes straight from my ps5 to my 5.1.2 Atmos soundbar, and both 7.1/5.1 LPCM and Atmos are fully supported.
I'm trying to decide on the best PS5 audio settings. I used to have it set to Atmos, which works perfectly. TV reports a DTHD signal coming in, passing it through by eARC, and the soundbar says it's receiving Atmos. However I am now wondering if I'm better off setting the PS5 to LPCM, because I see people talking about all kinds of bugs with different games when Atmos is enabled. I thought enabling Atmos would basically just give the PS5 access to all Atmos channels, and when a game doesn't use 3D audio, that it would simply send the plain default 5.1 or 7.1 signal within the Atmos container, and that there wouldn't be any difference between LPCM and Atmos in that case. Both DTHD and LPCM are lossless right? Could you tell me whether I should keep using Atmos or just choose LPCM?
And as a follow up, when using LPCM, should I choose 5.1 or 7.1 for my 5.1.2 soundbar? Is it best to let the soundbar handle the downscaling of the additional 2 channels? Or should I let the PS5 handle this? I'm worried it might limit a game's audio capabilities in some way, and I was thinking that maybe the soundbar has some processing going on that allows it to still put the 7.1 channels to good use by adding an effect to it, to make it still kinda distinguishable even though it's coming through the 5.1 channels.
And lastly, should I set the speaker positions to the actual positions of the soundbar in terms of degrees, or should I just leave it to default?
@@JorisKeijser you took the words from my mouth lol I desperately need a reply from op
@@SamuelBurks-op3xw Well, through my own testing and research I have come to the following conclusions:
-The Soundbar and TV settings on the PS5 are the exact same audio signal, but these settings are reported to games, so that the in-game audio settings will (when a game has those settings) also be set to either the TV or Soundbar (or home cinema when AV receiver is chosen in the PS5 audio settings) audio profile. This often determines the dynamic range that's applied to the game's audio. When a game is set to TV for example, the dynamic range (difference between loudest and quietest) will be smaller than when set so something like home cinema.
-The Soundbar and TV options will always output the maximum supported (reported by the device that's hooked up, the TV in my case) amount of channels. So in my case they will both output 7.1 channels, while the AV receiver setting lets you choose between 7.1, 5.1 and 2.0 yourself. When the AV Receiver option is also set to 7.1, there is no difference in audio signal compared to TV or Soundbar, which can be deduced by the fact that there is no short pause in the audio when switching between them. It doesn't actually switch to a different type of output signal so there is no short pause that signifies the switching that's happening. The pause/switch DOES happen when you set AV Reveicer to 5.1 and then switch between that and either TV or Soundbar. So in summary, TV, Soundbar, and AV Receiver 7.1 are all the exact same audio signal. AV Receiver 5.1 is different simply because it's 5.1 instead of 7.1.
-My soundbar (Samsung Q800C) does in fact process the additional 2 surround channels on 7.1 vs 5.1 a little differently, so it does in fact offer a different/more complete surround sound than plain 5.1, even though it physically only has 5.1 channels to play through.
-For some reason the Dolby Audio format on PS5 only outputs a Dolby Digital 5.1 signal for my setup, instead of Dolby Digital Plus 7.1. When selecting AV Receiver 7.1 and Dolby Audio, it only outputs 5.1. Switching the PS5 between 5.1 or 7.1 does not result in a pause in the audio, and both my Soundbar and TV just keep reporting they're receiving a Dolby Digital audio signal, instead of Dolby Digital Plus which would be needed for 7.1. This is trange as my setup definitely supports DD+ 7.1, but I have a feeling the PS5 simply doesn't support DD+, but only DD so only 5.1 when choosing Dolby Audio is your format on PS5. So, don't use it if you want 7.1.
-The Dolby Atmos setting always outputs 7.1 (over Dolby TrueHD in my case), and can never be changed to 5.1, which is fine.
-LPCM is also always 7.1, except when setting the PS5 to AV Receiver 5.1.
-I have not been able to find out whether there is a difference in "speaker position" settings between any of the options, and I suspect that by default they all just use the default settings that are seen in the settings menu for the AV Receiver option. So I don't think there's any reason to let it influence your decision.
-Dolby Atmos is only useful to choose when a game uses the Tempest 3D audio engine, which almost no game uses. This means there is not benefit to it compared to regular LPCM 7.1. I would recommend to not use it, as I've seen reports of bugs in terms of active channels and audio placement on wrong channels and such when a regular 7.1 game is converted to Dolby Atmos. Setting the PS5 to plain 7.1 will assure all games correctly output their audio without any bugs.
In the end, for my setup, I have chosen to use Soundbar with LPCM. This outputs 7.1 LPCM. I could choose AV Receiver 7.1, but purely because I'm not 100% sure about the "speaker placement" thing, I'm going for the Soundbar option just in case the AV Receiver option deviates from any sort of unprocessed speaker placement setting and instead changes it to the exact default settings when choosing AV Receiver. It probably doesn't matter though. Then, in games, I just verify whether the audio settings are correct, and I preferrably have the game set to home cinema (or something similar). Additionally, which is very specific to my soundbar, 7.1 and 5.1 sound identical in the soundbar's "standard" mode, but when using "adaptive" the 7.1 audio sounds a lot worse, way more muffled, than when using "standard". With a 5.1 signal though, "adaptive" behaves as expected and adds a bit more clarity to things like voices. But standard is the way to go anyways, as it gives a more accurate and true surround sound. So, with the Q800C, don't use adaptive for 7.1, only for 5.1, but I recommend to use standard anyway.
Hope this helps you, and if you have any questions I'd love to hear them!

I got a question. I had a sony gold headset on my ps4 and I could hear footsteps perfectly and know exactly where the enemy was in wz 1 and mw1. Now I got a steelseries 9 and ps5 and I suddenly can’t locate the enemy anymore. I can’t hear if the enemy is above me or under me anymore. To be clear I hear the footsteps loud and well but I just can’t locate it anymore especially not knowing if the enemy is under me or above me is quite irritating.

Thanks in regards.
As you copied the same question in 3 videos I pasted the same answer for you:
every headset has a different kind of sound stage and response frequencies are dependent on the settings and if they provide a setting for that, and it also depends on your ear shape, so you may feel a headset sounds like things are around you while another feels like the sound is coming inside your head (for example Pulse 3D Vs Inzone H3 feel like that) and to me personally the ones that have a better sound stage and can feel like the sound is coming from an outside speaker are better to hear directions, I'm not sure about the models you mentioned as I didn't have any of those, but pay attention to sound stage and how it feels when testing or checking from Rtings .com they provide good info about this.

Hi, I personally use Dolby Atmos as it helps with high frequencies to reduce them a bit and not get a headache, aside from that, in the last test Dolby had 1-2dB more compression on average (Due to Treble compression) so it was better for me overall.
Yo, do you have any video about a30 eq for footsteps?

That sounds good, I would say decide by the game, most first-party games support all channels in both Linear PCM and Dolby Atmos, but some other games only support full channels in LPCM mode. so yeah it's kinda dependent on the game, the point of Dolby Atmos support was to provide Tempest 3D audio capabilities to Dolby Atmos devices. when there's not a Native or Good 3D Audio support on a game, then LPCM might be a better choice.

is this good for tv speakers set up.
It depends on the TV, in most cases, it won't make a huge difference unless the TV is designed with a multi-speaker setup and Dolby decoding.
Hi, will atmos be better than dolby for me? I use astro a40's gen 2 with the mixamp optical is used for the audio and mic is through usb. Thanks
Hi, I recommend Linear PCM for your headset, Dolby Audio seems to be outputting the same 3D Audio, Atmos is a bit quiet on the headset and the frequencies don't sound correct on the headset (if that matters to you), however, I should also test the audio delay to give a final decision, the most important thing is to have low delay for gaming.

@@gw2752 Hello again, have you tested a direct USB connection to PS5? I guess, this way that you're using it will add a noticeable delay, I don't have the mix amp to test but I'm guessing there's a delay on your TV with Optical over arc with Dolby, of course I must test the delay on PS5 first, then I give you a recommendation, still, PCM typically should have a less delay. but let's wait a little longer until I test it. if you set to LPCM set the TV to that too.
Hi, the mixamp is connected to the PS5 via usb, PS5 set to dolby and voice chat only as the sound goes to the mixamp via the optical cable to the back of the mix amp, that way I can use the audio / chat balance on the mix amp and the mic ru s through the moxamp usb to the PS5.

Apparently tempest 3d has more object based total sound range compared to dolby, better keep it on and games where 3d is not an option, keep it 5.1 or other surround settings it has and then there are games without any audio settings, in which keeping the 3d on will still make it better overall, still hope sony would add virtual surround features for headphones and dacs like creative soundblaster x g1/g6 which has discrete 5.1/7.1 channel surround potential but those dacs are usb based and anything plugged into ps5 via usb is turned into stereo, ps5 does not allow other devices to do audio process at all unless it is done via optical out or likely hdmi arc, even their own headsets like gold or platinum's VSS feature are not allowed on ps5
Hi, yes the way I used to test headphones output but with 7.1CH was using an HDMI Sound Extractor because otherwise it'll output stereo and there's no way you can change that.
another issue with PS5 is multi audio streaming, it can't output to headset and HDMI simultaneously, so when I want to use headphones but record gameplay in capture card, the audio will be off, only 1 output at a time which forces me to get audio monitoring devices for that propuse, very limited.
Great video. Entertaining content so had to sub! Can you plz do a video testing out the astro a40tr on warzone at 1440p & 120hz? Find the best audio settings from dolby audio, atmos and pc. Astro says to use dolby audio but playstation has recently added atmos so it could be better maybe 😊
Hi, thanks, I'll look into it, I plan to support more headphones and settings, but there are a lot of models people ask for so I'm not sure which to get first and they're not cheap!
@damesdamo Hi, how do you use astro a40 with 1440p 120hz? I use a 1440p 144hz with two hdmi 2.0 cable and the ps5 have a limit to 1080p 120hz
Sorry for my bad english anyway
@gabstr You need a hdmi audio extractor to use the a40tr at 1440p 120hz, I will send the link below. It's what I use for my astros to work at 1440p 120hz
@@damesdamo Sorry, i can’t see the link
Please, can you send it?
For the audio format priority do I use Dolby audio or Dolby atmos?
