    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    I am experiencing an anomaly in the sound processing of my new TV and I will post this here - please move this new issue as necessary... When I was using my old Samsung HD TV I would sometimes turn on the sound of the TV at the same time as the sound from my Denon Receiver to make the voices...

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    I hooked up my new Samsung QN43Q60B 4K TV yesterday and put it through its paces with The Martian 4K and LOTR 4K. WOW! The picture is amazing. The splitter is working perfectly. I never knew true HD had such depth. The best I could do with my old TV was 1080i and 720p. The TV upscales regular...

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    Unfortunately the UBK80 I have only has one HDMI output and one optical digital audio output. The optical is useless for DTS HD-MA. The splitter works great, although the blue LEDs are a little bright.

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    Just received the unit. It's quite small but quite hefty. The EDID switch has to be set to "Display" to route DTS HD MA.

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    You are right of course. As soon as I posted my last entry I ordered the 2-port one. I only mentioned the 4-port one for its capabilities (my mistake). Understood about the HDR10+. I don't need the matrixed splitter since I only have one source (the 4K player). Once I actually get the TV...

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    I understand what you are saying. Manufacturers can promise the moon but whether or not it works in practice is another thing. I don't think I need HDR10+ at this point, although it would be nice, but getting it at the 43" size is probably not happening at the price point I can afford. I would...

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    Thanks for all that. That TV is all I can afford. Upgrading the AVR is not in the cards. The 4K player is only 6 months old so I won't be replacing that. So if I read you right, I should go straight from the player to the TV with my 8K certified cable, bypassing the switch? By the way, I...

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    You misunderstood me. I am not daisy chaining inputs to my receiver. Currently the signal goes from my 4K player into my receiver and then out to the HDMI switch and then to the TV. The switch is there because 2 of the 3 HDMI inputs on the 10 year old Samsung HDTV aren't working and I have a...

    Cable Routing for Best 4K Picture

    I'm not sure where to post this thread. I am about to take delivery of a new Samsung 4K TV (QN43Q60BA). I already have an LG UBK80 4K disc player and my HT receiver is a Denon AVR-590. I also bought an 8K Certified HDMI cable (). To get the best picture, what is the best path for the...
