hey guys, need your inputs. My supplier is selling the Q60R @ MYR 1480. My usage is more or less watching movies and my wife watching cooking shows. Not much gaming on it as there will be another 4k TV in my gaming room. This is for the hall. Living in condo. Is the Q60R more than enough?

QUOTE(neekun @ Jul 29 2020, 09:02 AM) From what I understood, Sony TV needs to enable Dolby Atmos pass through to soundbar. When viewing contents with Dolby Atmos sound on TV, the sound stream will pass to Q90R and will be output as Dolby Atmos Video. QUOTE(Lego Warfare @ Jul 29 2020, 01:51 PM) That is only if your source/content is connected to the TV first then from TV ARC to soundbar. If your source e.g blu-ray player/tv box has Atmos, you can connect straight to the Atmos enabled sound bar then you don’t need Atmos TV Hi, guys, currently i have Samsung NU8000 (2018) TV and thinking to upgrade my soundbarRight now all console connect to Sony NT-HT5 and one HDMI from the Arc to NU8000 TV Model: Samsung NU8000 Soundbar: Sony NT-HT5 Console: Playstation 4 & Nintendo Switch Question 1: As per you guys mention, the content/source must have Atmos in order to have Atmos output from soundbar, how do i know that my TV support atmos? FYI Netflix subscriber right now btw. Add on: I will buy Playstation 5 next time which i not sure it support ATMOS or not. Question 2: Which sound bar actually perform better? Right now i aiming for Q900T, Q800T and Q70T but kinda dilemma to go for which one. From Harvey Norman right now: Q900T - RM3,497 Q800T - RM2,797 Q70T - RM2,377 This post has been edited by TongCN: Sep 22 2020, 04:28 PM |

buy what ever pocket allowed. of course q900T, its with atmos without the rear effect speakers.
to check if your TV has atmos, check the specs. or the Box. Or under netflix, you need to be 4K ultra package. if yes. browse thorough or search for atmos in search bar, a list of movies will appear. Choose Project power then when it shows a Atmos logo your TV is atmos compatible. If not, then no. |

QUOTE(TongCN @ Sep 24 2020, 08:57 AM) Btw, Apple TV 4K is crap unless you mainly want to use Airplay. Nvidia TV Shield 2019 Pro is much better.If you can find the Q80R or Q90R at much lower price than the newer 900/950T models then go for the R series. If not then the 900/950T at their current street price people are getting for is really good. |

Thanks for the info but I don't think i will get current gen Apple TV 4k with A10 chip, might as well monitor for next gen see.If you can find the Q80R or Q90R at much lower price than the newer 900/950T models then go for the R series. If not then the 900/950T at their current street price people are getting for is really good. My NU8000 right now also has the Apple TV app built in. My main right now are YouTube and Netflix also XD Later i go check Harvey Norman see any R series left, what's the best price range now for Q90R and Q80R ? The Q900T is at RM3,497 |

But just checked, my hall where my sofa is being placed, dont have power ports. So for the rear speakers abit hard to install. might be going for the q900t instead since the only difference are the 2 rear speakers. But pricing wise, the q900t im getting from supplier is at RM3680 |

You can keep the rear speakers for next time if you ever have the chance to use them. Or could even sell them for much more than the price difference since Q900T or Q80R owners who wants to buy the rear speakers are limited to another model without Atmos. |
