So this is what I'm working with here .. Basement room with concrete walls 2/3rds 12' by 30'.Divided room in half, one for dedicated theater viewing ,streaming ,editing, music listening and gaming. All three windows filled with heavy sound dampening material. 7.1 done to spec of distance x.4 of front 2 way Polk towers. 2 way Polk books ti202 at 90d 2' above ear level, as well as 2 soundstage 2 ways at 150d,with all 4 corners loaded (I know it isn't ideal but..) 1 David 300 12 300w ,1 sound stage 10 200w and 2 Polk PSW 505 s ran off Onkyo TR SX 806. I have ran 90% of wiring through the walls into laundry room with custom rack and internet hub. Ok now I have tried running subs onto other side of room doing bass crawls and it never seemed to work out. I use subwoofer y(s) at the av into 3 ,20ft runs to lfe inputs and 1 prossor y jumping last 6 ' to the 4th sub, except 2 my subs only have line level inputs.
questions


Running cirrus 24/192 DAC in Av receiver able to play lossless'y audio WAV,FLAC,AFLAC ?

Better streaming out there than SPOTIFY for what I am capable ?

Anywhere to stream truehd and master bluerays?

Output 5.1/7.1 truehd/master through powerdvd via blueray torrents without soundcard?

Room acaustics advice with center bar?

Can only decode prologic IIx, would it be acceptable to have front heights anyway ?

Running 4 subs / 2 lfe, 2 line level crossovers?

Opinions on THX ?

DAC direct full meaning on all channel music?

Sending PCM from blueray to av receiver or DOLBY,DTS ( dd cert ps4 games as well)

Up mixing 5.1 bluerays to proligic 2x and neo6?

7.1 return from tv ?(Anny net compatible but not ARC )

HDMI ,SPDIF , COAX when and where to use ?

Thanks guys!!!!

Connor,
You don't need to start a new thread to update a thread you have already begun. You could just edit the thread you started with (the original) and add in the link to the pictures of your system.

As a newb, there are lots of "blocking and tackling" issues with learning how to use the forum tool. Even if you are on other forums, each one implements the editor differently. It may take a few posts to shake out the cobwebs.

I did try to use the link to see the pictures of your system. The link gave me the dredded 404, page not found error. Keep it up, photos will help !
