Hello,
Just bought Sony CT-790 (2.1 system). I have a question and need some advice.

My Equipments - Sony 4kTv X7000D, HyppTV and PS3
My connection - HyppTV to TV (HDMI) ; PS3 to Soundbar (HDMI) ; Soundbar and TV connected by HDMI ARC.

My Question
1. Which sound do I hv to choose whether PCM or bitstream (output to Soundbar) when watching Netflix on TV APP in order the get better sound experience?

2. Same as above question, on Netlix, I have 2 options for audio which are English or English 5.1. Which 1 is better for my 2.1 system?

Side Note:
1. TV 4k audio support - 2ch LPCM, 5.1 LPCM, DD, DD+ and DTS
2. Soundbar audio support - at TV IN - 2ch LPCM, DD and DTS
3. Soundbar audio support - at all HDMI out - up to DD TrueHD and DTS MA.
4. Netflix app at TV via ARC to soundbar and I believe it will output at TV IN.

Appreciate for the help.
Thanks

While using Netflex with 5 1 English on TV:
1. When I set TV audio ouput (at TV) to auto1 (mean bitstream), my CT790 showing Dolby Digital 48kHz 24bit
2. When I set TV audio output (at TV) to PCM, my CT790 showing LPCM 48kHz 16bit.

Both sounds no issue, just Dolby Digital entire sound will give a little bit lower volume than LPCM. I prefer LPCM!
For above case, Dolby 24bit vs LPCM 16bit which one is better for my case 2.1 system?
How come 16bit LPCM can sound better than 24bit Dolby?

I really confuse.

Do u consider for additonal wireless surround?
For CT790, we will have an option (Sony brand) but too pricey. Lowest can get RM599 x 1unit and we need 2units.

Thanks for the well explaination.!
