    Who Does The Decoding?

    So I guess that would be the "direct" option on my receiver. So I did that for my PS3 and PS4. What about for a PC? I have never seen that type of audio option before. My mobo is a Z170 and I am pretty sure it can do Dolby Digital and DTS.

    Who Does The Decoding?

    This is all good information. I should elaborate on my situation: I have some good spending money for an entry level speaker set up. Keep in mind that I am in the second floor of an apartment complex built from the 80s. My neighbors don't mind when I play movies loudly. (I went through the...

    Hey everyone, So I am pretty new to this whole audio even though I have music experience. What I did will completely gross everyone out; I have cheap RCA speakers and some iLive subwoofer connected to a Denon AVR-S510BT. My question is, should I upgrade the speakers and subwoofer or just start...
