About this deal

Gasp, are your left and right speakers as far apart as your listening position is from them? It seems you wouldn't get much out of your centre speaker at that close distance. Now when it comes to 2 overhead speakers all AV receivers/amplifier provide several placement options in their setup. These can be either on top of the front, in the middle of your listening area, on top of the surrounds or even placing them on the wall above the front speakers. The best placement for only two ceiling speaker is certainly in the middle of your listening area as they will be able to cover more space in your home theater. But as always this also depends on your room. 5.1.2 speaker setup Support of 4K content at 60 Hz definitely something appraisable. The HDR, HDR10, HLG, Dolby Vision, and so on Onkyo support for giving us outstanding video quality on the screen. With fire cube connected to the hue box my LG G1 displays the video output as rgb 8b tm - 3840x2160p - 60hz fixed, the colors are amazing and dolby vision works correctly, but lights won’t sync.

Anyone using this with PC with an Nvida gpu able to get full colour space, I can get 10bit ybcr444 but only limited, according to Vincent Teoh it should be able to. The receiver is a combination of the amp, pre-amp, input selection, tuner so many things. Perfect for home theater, music and others. Simply it decodes the input signal and makes the signal more powerful and great.

Marantz NR1711 8K Slim 7.2 Channel Ultra HD AV Receiver (2020 Model) – Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HEOS Built-in, Alexa & Smart Home Automation – 8K HDMI Videos & Multi-Room Streaming The dialogue hears so detailed and crisp clear. Ever words you can hear specifically and defined what you never experienced. And the support of Dolby Atmos, Dolby Surround, and DTS X all three do the rest of the work for incredible sound. A normal 5.1.2 setup consists of 2 extra ceiling speakers that will bring the sounds from above as you can see in the photo below. With 5.1.4 we have 4 extra speakers, 2 on the front and 2 above the rear speakers. How many speakers you are going to use is up to your space, your room configuration and obviously your budget. If you can go for 4 overhead speakers then this will get you the best possible results but if either your room doesn’t allow for that or your budget is limited then even two of them will do a very good job in this regard. Lastly, the Zone B line out, powered Zone B, and HDCP 2.2 technology is everything you need to have an efficient connection system. Breathtaking Audio Quality With Onkyo TX-SR494 Any stand that can hold their weight, which is not much, will do. For example the ones I had were the OmniMount Gemini 1 for the surrounds and the OmniMount Gemini 2 for the front speakers. These fit great and are exactly the right height. Reply

This high-power Onkyo TX-SR494 receiver is perfect for large or medium size rooms. Because it gives a power supply of 160-watt per channel. Can you just imagine how powerful it is! It seems that G2 and G3 will be able thru a firmware passthrough DTS. Its not impossible for G1 also, but we all know how sneaky LG is. It would be lovely to have that. Especially when you don’t want to disturb others or want some alone time. The sound quality is already great so just connect your wireless headphone and feel peace of mind. Finally have my system plugged in and everything seems fine except when my PC plays 5.1 sources my onkyo only allows "Multich" or "PL II" ect, is this still 5.1 or is this some sort of virtual surround?We also have portable Internet & Dab radios so you never miss a thing.Our experts can offer you the best adviceto full fill your requirements. Hello John. If you are tight with budget but you want a new speaker setup the one i suggested is very good. But in general getting a speaker setup with integrated up firing speakers will save you some money and trouble from placing them in the ceiling. I am glad that i helped you and if you need any other help feel free to reply to this topic. Reply

Thanks for sharing the information in your post. I finally finished my basement, and my next step is to start shopping for a sound system. Your insight is appreciated. I am not audio savvy, and you have given me a starting point. I have been reading up on audio systems and have found that it comes down to my budget. I currently have a primary Bose sound system and like it very much. I would like to upgrade to a system that has four speakers or more.The surround speakers offer single 8cm cones each, with theoretical power of 130W. These speakers really are very light and you should be careful where you place them because it is very easy to fall over since they can either be mounted on a base or on the wall.
