Paying mortage enables me to live in a house which in turn gives me a room in which to put the equipment and the acoustics and electricity to enjoy the equipment. I guess getting the mortage payed off is not really a priority

Paying off the mortgage is way up there in the priority list for me - definitely before high-end electronics and speakers. You know I was just playing.

Based on my IMAX experience, I think "Interstellar" would be an awesome surround sound movie to check out when it is released later this year. Reactions: Steve Pitbull Potenziano

RichB Audioholic Field Marshall Jul 22, 2005 1,925 0 83 Jan 30, 2015 #30 You could also try the Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds at Radio City Music Hall: http://www.amazon.com/Dave-Matthews...ic+Hall.&pebp=1422644723819&peasin=B000T4SWXO It has a two channel PCM and surround mode that might be fun. It is great demo material. I prefer the two channel because it seems more dynamic. - Rich

H harry4200 Audiophyte Feb 13, 2014 1 0 1 Nov 9, 2015 #31 Listening Test Update: I have run the animated movies Tangled and Finding Nemo with Atmos Enabled. I did notice a major difference in the surround effects with the Atmos configuration enabled vs. Dolby Pro Logic 2 or STX Neo 6. They offered quite a bit more pop and punch to the experience. If there is a movie that you all would like me to test please submit it here. I would be more than glad to give it a go. Here is a link to YouTube video I posted. [/QUOTE] Nice Review Steve, thanks so much for sharing, I too own a Yamaha rx-a3040, I really like this receiver. I noticed you are using an Emotiva amplifier, can you please explain, how you have it wired up? I am not very familiar with hooking up the amplifiers, you have it hooked up to the Front Pre-outs on the Yamaha? You mentioned in the video, that it's a five channel amplifier. I would like to set up for the dolby atmos as well, but I am little confused on how to hook up the amplifier. If you don't mind sharing on how you have that Emotiva hooked up to the rxa3040, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much.
