Neural x? I have mine set to surround decoder - auto. I only change it for when I listen to music,which I switch it up between straight, Dsu, auro 3d and sometimes pure direct. Pure direct is nice when you don't want the sub to be engaged. Click to expand... For 5.1 content and above, ATMOS etc, I'll always use straight, no AI, for 2.0 content (TV) I use Dolby surround up-mixing, again, no AI, for music 99% of time I'll use 'Pure Mode', I'll use 5 channel stereo for a causal soirée with friends.

I have had many inbox chats with Gene usually in the wee hours of the morning cuz he stays up so late. Umm also if Gene doesn't respond right away he more than likely busy. Last edited: Feb 11, 2022

Unless your room is really acoustically perfect, the room correction brings a lot compared to pure that fit a narrower scene.

J jakkedtide Audioholic Oct 17, 2021 226 0 16 41 Feb 12, 2022 #3,497 Question for you all. I have a movie that I have 2 different audio tracks and would like to know which one would be better to watch. The one is atmos/dd+ around 700kbps (8gb file) The second is dts 5.1 at 1.5mbps (19 Gb file) So one is Atmos but lower quality. Also the dts is better video too.

Just good ole Stereo! Why you guys using straight or pure. What is that for music. Click to expand... I use straight or Auro 3D for music. But pure that bypass YPAO sounds really narrower than stereo or straight with stereo source. Ok it’s supposedly the cleanest sound but you lose half of the sound scene width and separation is not as good. I was using direct mode on my previous amp (that didn’t support any room correction, way too old) so my first listening was in pure mode. Once YPAO setup done, I made pure vs straight back and forth tests on stereo sources, it’s night and day. Reactions: Replicant 7

Replicant 7 Audioholic Samurai Jun 29, 2021 2,363 0 36 Feb 12, 2022 #3,499 Well Yammy fans, ASR posted up his findings of Onkyo's new RZ50 AVR. If I read right, umm don't use 4 Ohm's speakers you'll only get about 40 watts output, 8 Ohm speakers seem to be ok, will get rated output. From his review he seems to not like his findings much. I was considering that model but not anymore. A big Hell No in my book

You'll feel even better of your RX-A8A. As of now, Denon, Yamaha still king. Last edited: Feb 12, 2022 Reactions: jakkedtide and OldAndSlowDev
