That’s disappointing.
I would expect the front LCD to say “Auro3D” just like it says “Dolby Atmos” and “DTS:X Master”.
Surely the number of Atmos speakers are more than enough for Auro3D.
Definitely would like to hear your thoughts on some Auro3D contents or Auro2D Upmix.
I even tried with adjusting the channel configurations which I feel is unnecessary but gave it a try and nope that didn't seem to do it, eve thou no VOG is currently being used.
They should fit more RCA, or rather D-25 connectors on the back of AVR's now so that each of the many D-25 used for each sound delivery format so that no one has to mess around with settings all the time.
Lots of Free D-25 cables supplied with every AVR made mandatory
for D-25 to XLR plug / D-25 for TRS for unbalanced D-25 to RCA.
For LFE.1 the XLR will come with a FREE XLR box splitter for up x10 subs for each of the sound zone format outputs.
Each AVR to be sold comes with a plug in to back of AVR, 4U frame rack mountable easy to see LCD channel output that shows what channels are active and there db scale levels from -60db to + 20db
