    Does the A95L have 4 HDMI 2.1 ports that have VRR, ALLM, 120 Hz or still only two? This is not as importnat but the new Samsung can do 4k 144 Hz - is the Sony able to do 4k 144 Hz?

    Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)

    I just want to follow up that after some research, I decided the local Elmwood showing in the Dolby Cinema 3D was the way to go. The Imax theaters were both Xenon projectors running in 2K whereas the Dolby Cinema was 4K with double laser projectors, high frame rate, amazing dynamic range, and...

    Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)

    Just looking through all the posts but cannot find a comment. Has anyone seen Avatar 2 in both imax 3D and Dolby Cinema? If so, which presentation did you like better and why? I havent been to a movie since prepandemic and had never heard of dolby cinema but our local theaters have both. I read...

    4K Firestick Help

    Are the inputs on the receiver and the TV set to 4k "enhanced"? TVs and receivers are shipped set to the lower hdmi setting to maximize compatibility with cable boxes so you have to change them in the menus.

    What exactly will I get from the Ethernet connection??

    Also another great use of the Ethernet or wireless connection of the receiver is to allow you to connect to the receiver either through a browser on its IP address or using the app on a phone as a remote control.

    What exactly will I get from the Ethernet connection??

    Bluetooth headphones stay in much better av sync when you just connect them directly to the streaming device ie fire stick, Apple tv, nvidia shield all can be paired with Bluetooth headphones. In the past when I've tried to use Bluetooth headphones with the receiver, the audio has been out of...

    Podcast HomeTheaterUnited Podcast Episode 15 - Dave Upton on room correction and calibration with REW and Audyssey

    So my current receiver has 2 subwoofer outputs but they are not adjustable independently for distance. Good to know if I do add a 2nd one, I could use the phase adjustment to try to align without having to buy a minidsp or new receiver. Thanks for the explanation. I'm curious though why I didnt...

    Podcast HomeTheaterUnited Podcast Episode 15 - Dave Upton on room correction and calibration with REW and Audyssey

    I dont understand that. Do you have a reference that explains that better or can you explain why that is? And if you were to use phase changes you would change it in increments of 15 degrees or so to see if there was a flattening of the crossover? I did try changing the phase on the SVS app in...

    Podcast HomeTheaterUnited Podcast Episode 15 - Dave Upton on room correction and calibration with REW and Audyssey

    I relistened to this podcast with Dave again and picked up on a major game changer (which to be granted he said it was very important). Dave had said that Audyssey could be off by 10-12 ft in the subwoofer distance. I had played around with fixing the crossover region but had only changed by at...

    Home Theater United Episode 25 - More on amps with John Rice and John Dirk

    Doh - no Overcast app for android. But on my ipad the default Apple Podcast player also only shows 5 episodes on January 7th and is missing the demoes episode. I'm using podbean on android to listen to the demoes episode, then will go back. The wider world deserves to see all your podcasts...

    Podcast HomeTheaterUnited Podcast Episode 15 - Dave Upton on room correction and calibration with REW and Audyssey

    I had a 7.1 setup before and just added some front height speakers for Atmos and DTS:X so I need a new receiver anyways to have at least 9 amp connections and 11 channels of processing in case I decide to add rear heights. So trying to decide which receiver to get. I was thinking of the Denon...

    Podcast HomeTheaterUnited Podcast Episode 15 - Dave Upton on room correction and calibration with REW and Audyssey

    Looking for advice from Dave Upton and any other forum members with experience in room correction. His episode with Sam and Brian on the podcast motivated me to get into REW. I was able to even out the repsponse of my single SVS SB1000 PRO quite a bit but only so much that could be done and...

    Home Theater United Episode 25 - More on amps with John Rice and John Dirk

    Hi Sam and Bryan I have been enjoying the podcast a lot. Thanks for the efforts. I am not new to home theater but new to the forum. Not sure where to post this but you made reference to the first episode of demo material in your kaleidescape episode. In my google podcasts and pocketcasts player...
