Ok...with a disc player and a preamp processor that does Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-Master HD Audio, plus all of the legacy formats, what is the default audio for the newer movies encoded with Dolby Atmos? I'm guessing Dolby TrueHD? How much audio (if any) are we missing by not having the latest...

Hey all, So I bought a Marantz SR3001 second hand but refurbished by a professional who sold it simply because the client decided to just buy another one, and left it with him. It has a brand new power supply. For some reason, whenever I turn it on, though not always, around 8 or 9 times out of...

Any suggestions to (un)stuck it? I have a Dayton Audio subwoofer amplifier SA230 that I purchased refurbished from Parts Express in Sept. 2016. I had it powering (2) Aura bass shakers (50 WPC) at the most in my home theater. It never got hot or showed any signs of dying. The only thing I did...

When downstairs last night to put in a movie and both my amps where off I have an XPR-2 and a XPA-5. The five cut on with no issues but the XPR-2 clicked on and then off. I tried to cut it on several times and the same thing happened. The XPR-2 run my two tower speakers and they where off as...

I own a Denon 4311Ci Receiver. It has a function called "Direct". I am trying to figure out what that does. When it is in that mode I know it puts it in 2 channel stereo. What I do not know is when it is in this mode does it mean that it is true stereo? Are all the calibration setting of...

I'm going to turn my brain off and ask for help. Look at the image below. It's obliviously a room mode. Is this room mode what causes the initial "Null" at 69-76hz range? This is my HSU VTF-15H MK2 sub sitting between center channel and right channel front firing about 4" away from teh back...

First, is a Room Mode different than a Null? In that a null can be changed with speaker (Subs in this case) placement, but a room mode only with MLP change? Im trying to find if anything can be done to flatten out a Room Mode at 17Hz besides moving the MLP? The only way I have found to...

Hello, I have been working on my 50hdx82 set for awhile now. I installed new IC chips from that I got from a online supplier and had my hyper module rebuilt with no success in getting the set up and running. Instead of spending time troubleshooting what went wrong with the repairs I went ahead...

I have an Onkyo R391 and for the past 2 years, I have set it to 'direct.' As of lately, I have been tempted to set it to something that will produce me a better sound. I am not really sure of what I am looking for since I am not an expert with audio, but I do want to make sure that I have...
