Just have a question, looking for some help. I think this should be the correct place to ask.
Have a DVD player. It doesn't use the HDMI cable. So, I cannot connect it to my TV. So, that DVD player has been lying around. Suddenly saw this thread thought I can ask... Question 2- Have always wanted to buy a sound bar. The reason is whenever we watch something, the dialogue is always very soft. So we turn up the volume. But then all the other action sounds are too loud. So now I have recently learned that there can be "soundbar for dialogues". Any experience Sifu share their experience and thoughts please? Thank you in advance... |

QUOTE(GuyB @ Sep 25 2021, 02:37 AM) My question is, will the quality suffer because the signal goes thru a non 4K AVR? Or will the difference be negligible? It won’t be offMy Sony Blu-Ray 4K player does have 2 HDMI outputs. One for video and one audio. But now I'm just using the one into the AVR that handles both video and audio. If I use one HDMI2.0 straight to TV, and the other to AVR, won't the synchronisation be a little off? ktek liked this post

Actually best connection is separate output. Video hdmi output send Pure video signal without audio to TV , another Audio Hdmi ouput send pure audio signal without video to AVR. My Sony Blu-Ray 4K player does have 2 HDMI outputs. One for video and one audio. But now I'm just using the one into the AVR that handles both video and audio. If I use one HDMI2.0 straight to TV, and the other to AVR, won't the synchronisation be a little off? This way you get better video quality & better audio quality compare to single hdmi output.

If yes try search if your TV have Intelligent Volume (Sony) or Loudness Equalization or some other term, turn on that feature helps.Any experience Sifu share their experience and thoughts please?

hey all audiophiles, i had a 5.1 ch setup with receiver at home with a sub. All BD player, Xbox, and tvbox connect to Receiver than receiver connect to TV. all on hdmi cable.
Playing BD via Bluray player and Xbox so far the sub is working nicely with the bass. but for Tvbox (unblock) connect via HDMI to receiver, the sub is not working. my question is: 1. is it becuase tvbox movie file don't have bass like BD file. 2. or is it i need to add in some extra stuff e.g converter etc..to have the sub produce bass? thank you and apology if this is noob questions |

Jamo speakers x 5 with anoteh jamo subwoofer 3. Connection from Unblock tvbox to amp is hdmi. 4. then TV connect to Amp via HDMI the upmixing or selection - i had tried all such as: DTS neo, prologic, advance surround, FS surround focus...and many more...but i actually not sure what they meant la.

Does your subwoofer really no playing OR its playing too soft? maybe u can crank it louder to check if the sub is playing or not.. |

I got one question to ask sifu here, especially Minidsp user. Is it audyssey LPF for LFE 120hz so important? My friends blame their av processor don't have this LPF for LFE 120hz setting. This reason make their audio system bass performance become weak, even they are using expensive multi 15" subwoofer. So they try to use the minidsp set up each subwoofer crossover become 120hz to 15hz with 24db/slope. AVR speaker crossover set 80hz. Now they are happy, bass become strong. But I think this method look like they are not bypass their subwoofer internal crossover, even their already bypass with turn the crossover knob to max value.
Is it this method correct way, nothing negative effect? AVR crossover 80hz 12db/slope, minidsp subwoofer output crossover 15 to 120hz 24db/slope. After, I also find out many brand av processor like pioneer, yamaha , Sony, NAD, lyngdorf & trinnov. They also don't have this LPF for LFE 120hz setting. This setting only appear at marantz or denon which got audyssey tuning technology. This post has been edited by kkthen: Nov 11 2021, 09:40 AM |
