C chapp Audioholic Nov 17, 2021 109 0 16 Feb 1, 2022 #3,341 I have an Auro 3d demo disc which I played using the 7.1.4 test signals. These were output to the respective channels without any issues. I also played some of the demo material and could hear sound from all the channels. 11 plus subwoofer. However, I did notice that the Yamaha showed that the signal was DTSHDMA... AURO 3d. The A8A did not output to Auro 3d if the format was "Straight" or "Auto". You have to change it to Auro 3d manually using the "Surround button" on the remote. You can use the Musiccast App to do this, too. To use the Auro 3d mix settings, you'll have to use the Musiccast app. I have not noticed any settings on the A8A directly. Can someone confirm that the A8A indicates DTSHDMA...Auro 3d when playing a native Auro 3d disc like the Demo disc (Auro 3d). I will try to discover what else is included in this firmware. I hope the other bugs have been displaced.

diablo676 Junior Audioholic Oct 6, 2021 52 0 6 74 Feb 1, 2022 #3,348 Just tried an experiment. Turned off the front speakers (put them on seperate amp for this test) and played Dolby 5.1 and 2.0 (though surround encoded) programmes. Using Dolby there was just a slight murmor coming from the heights. With the Auro 3D setting there were clear sounds from the heights, including vocals. So something is happening, though if it is right or not I don't know. Will see if I prefer it. Edit: 5.1 I'm watching now has no dialogue on the front heights, only music and effects. ??

I’ve seen claims of putting top front (for example) as wall mounted up high at the ceiling with decent results. I think as in all things audio, when it comes to layout, trying to follow best practice as best we can, while allowing for some necessary compromises, is allowable. When I install atmos, it will likely be with “side heights” in place of overhead in-ceiling speakers. Reactions: Replicant 7

OldAndSlowDev Senior Audioholic Oct 14, 2021 512 0 16 50 Quebec, QC, Canada Feb 1, 2022 #3,358 The firmware update took maybe three minutes. But what a mess. When I press on display information I simply lose the sound and it’s then the tv that plays the sound. On the edge to return my Yamaha if they are releasing such updates. It’s not like they didn’t taken their time. My amp s basically not working
