this is what they said earlier

i think it was controller by the main distributor bro..
if pay enough attention a lot of the hifi retailer do not setup shop at JB. KL/Melaka/Penang/Perak/Sabah/Sarawak but not JB.. a lot of these retailer scare to open shop at JB.. many tutup kedai..

in the old time ppl can source it from SG and "import" themself with cheaper price.. thats why a lot hifi shop tutup kedai.. denon avr are being sold everywhere even in courts.. their price are more competitive... another thing is malaysia tax.. if i m not mistaken its pretty steep for hifi or even headifi

which branch u got it from?

as far as i know... no.. but normally due to the space constraint in car they wont put thick cables but at home u can put thick cables
OFC is good but there are many other tech and plating that can be chosen.. cables alone can lead to many discussion..

I see normally I deal with at one u but now moved to sunway

maybe you want to try to look for shifu at this thread https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3019947

the important part is the high, high freq doesnt travel far so the toe adjustment will compensate if the high is not so clear. If you are angle it to ceiling mostly your tweeter will be pointed to ceiling instead to your ear.. but no golden rule.. if you think you can get more high by doing that.. nobody can stop you

that is called atmos speaker / elevation speaker.. brand like klipsch they have this.. https://www.klipsch.com/floor-speakers.. its very difficult when it comes to placement.. u need to adjust your speaker according to the angle from your atmos speaker.. later u find your sweet spot at the middle of the walkway or they r something that is obstructing.. the placement

if you can place ceiling speaker thats the best approach.. as compare to elevation which is a hit or miss kind of setup

apa avr u orang guna.. why my sendiri shiok sendiri avr no option for me to change impedance 1? lol

u got ur 3700 d bro? congras!

start making your neighbor to hate you bro

music is fine bro.. the movies is the killer.. and yeah normally i wont enable LFC as they limit the extreme low freq. Unless u have rattling issue and you cannot solve with other measurement (i.e. placement of the sub or isolation food/pad) then thats the last resort you want to go with

time to get some korek korek service done la bro..

Klipsch are good old US Brand.. they r famous for their horn tweeter.. if you have budget you can consider their reference series.

if you have media player that supports dolby vision and you have media source which contains dolby vision (DV) metadata, you still can run DV without bluray player. Or even playing media directly to tv may give u dolby vision so bluray or not may not be relevent.

HDR10 is actually standard / generic HDR. The metadata is static, in layman it means the color information are the same through the film. Dolby vision however contains dynamic "HDR" information that may change from scene to scene. Hence the video file size is bigger compare to HDR10. To counter Dolby Vision, new HDR standard was introduced - HDR10+ which support dynamic metadata

and in fact do we still need dts/dolby atmos, if we r using hdmi earc?
the audio bandwidth is sufficient to delivering raw audio, no need compressions
you are right eARC provide more bandwidth to support higher res audio.. you cannot send high res audio like TrueHD/HDMA if one of your device (either TV or Audio) doesnt support eARC. Does your RAW = PCM/LPCM?
Refer to the table below

reading about MAT 2.0

i read:

source: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Dolby_Atmos

from the statement it seems like it will work even with ARC as long as the receiver supports Atmos. Because TrueHD and DD+ can be passthru using ARC. Nevertheless, most of the atmos certified receiver would have supported HDCP 2.2 support (eARC)

initial setup - means to add speakers slowly?
if you just wan a basic AVR and a pair of bookshelf i think you can top up a bit to RM4500 and buy a denon x1600h (~RM3,000) + svs prime satellite (~RM1,500) which can be downgraded to your surround later when you upgrade

x1600h is a very basic AVR but come with audessey and i would say you wouldn't want to make it run on 7.1 unless u got a very very small room. 5.1 should be fine.. if you have a large room and you need that much of speakers you need to top up and buy better AVR.

else like what SSJBen said look for second hand unit.. pm me if you are interested for a used denon receiver

yea boss.. satellite not bookshelf

lets see if he can accept 2.0 like what he said.. if not a entry sub already can eat up half of his budget d if he is going to buy all new
