QQ - great video btw. My front speakers are connected to a separate amplifier - I use the Front L and R Preamp out , directly into the Inputs on the Amp (2 ch Crown - 330w/4ohm to each side - powering Polk Audio LSI25's). For some reason, no matter which Amp Assign I select, I keep getting MONO out of the preamps? I can tell because when I run test tones, When Front L is highlighted, Im getting sound from both front speakers. Ive double checked many times, everything is connected correctly. Also it seems that the terminal config never even highlights the preamp section as an "active" pre out. My guess is AMP assign needs to be changed to utilize those preamps. I think its treating it as a line out right now. I dont have any "theater bypass" inputs on this amp either. My previous AVR was a Denon AVR3805 - this handled the left and right preouts perfectly. Obviously things have changed a lot over the years. I have been trying to get this to work for the last month to no avail. Any ideas?

Hi great video question please if you don’t mind. I just finished setting up my home theater and I’m first running a Sony A90J 65 inch OLED, my question is I’m using a Denon 3700h receiver with two Klipsch RP-800F’S front speakers and two R-41sa’s as the height speakers which are mounted to the wall on each side of the tv cause I didn’t like when you place them on top of the floor speakers and aim it at the ceiling to get the overhead affect. I also have two Klipsch RP-600m bookshelf speakers on stands as the rear and I’m using the tv as the center channel until I get dedicated center speaker, there is a 10 inch woofer as well. Now the entire setup uses hard wired connections and I just bought two Denon 150 home wireless speakers and I would like to use them as rear height speakers to make it a 7.1 but so far I’m not seeing a way in the Denon setup to add two wireless speakers it only gives options for connecting more wired speakers. So is it possible to do this? Thank you so much

Hi Dennis! I have had my crossover at 80 for all my speakers as well, that's the THX standard. I may go back to that, but I'm not sure. I will be receiving the Klipsch RP-250S today and making a video on the difference between monopole (bookshelf) and bipole (RP-250S) for surround sound speakers. I actually just spoke with the people at Emotiva about adding an amp to my setup. They say most people upgrade the amps for the front sound stage and let their AVR handle surrounds and Atmos speakers. I sent him the speaker models RP-280Fs and RP-250C and he said they are pretty hefty speakers and I could use a 3 channel version of the XPA Gen3 which would output 275 Watts RMS per channel. I thought that was a bit much, but he said it would drastically change the sound and punch in my system. On the other hand, people in the Klipsch group on Facebook, they recommend adding a second sub before I add an amp. So I'm more confused now! Hahaha!

Look at your speaker specifications. If they can go from day 60 Hz up then set the crossovers 10 to 20Hz higher. This will then push the lower frequencies away from those speakers to your sub, meaning less distortion and more accurate sound. I'd uncertain, set all to 80Hz

Hi! Great question! So if I understand correctly, you have your Atmos speakers plugged into the SBR and SBL terminals on the back of your Denon.

It comes on automatically when you send an Atmos signal to the AVR. Do you have a 4K Blu-Ray Player?

The Xbox One S has a VUDU app as well but unfortunately Dolby Atmos only currently works for the blu ray app. Is there a streaming device (ROKU, Nvidia, etc.) that can stream Dolby Vision and/or HDR10 and also pass Dolby Atmos via an HDMI connection through an AVR?

Thank you Oscar! To my knowledge, the 2016 OLEDs cannot pass through Dolby Atmos. The 2017 OLEDs can decode Atmos since there is an Atmos sound bar that LG makes, but I'm not sure if they can pass that signal through either. We will have to wait and see. As far as I know, the only way to get Atmos is via 4K Blu Ray Discs through a player and AVR that supports the format.

Tried connecting my apple 4k tv to the same brand reciver. However I cant get it to decode atmos at all. The reciver even says it supports atmos. But cant get atmos support in the movie room. Tried auto selection it on apple 4k tv and it only supports 5.1 connected it to the DVD HDMI thing. Yet it works with my samsung soundbar Q70R. Any help?

Can you run front and rear High speakers as Atmos speakers and what is the difference between an Atmos speaker and a regular speaker if any

@TechnoDad 6 жыл бұрын

Hi! Atmos speakers have some boosted frequencies so they can do the ceiling bounce. They are not like a 'normal' speaker.

Is there any difference in the Atmos effect for top rear and top front. Since I don’t have space on the back side. What’s distance I have to keep for top front configuration?

@TechnoDad 3 жыл бұрын

It depends, but if you only have one set of height channels, I would got top front or top middle.

Sir can I connect my Panasonic Bi Amp speakers with Denon 7.2 dolby atmos AVR?

@oletheos 7 жыл бұрын

Nice vid. I'll just add that I just got a denon 2300x which is a 5.2.2 atmos capable (or plain 7.2) and on boot up for the very first time it walked you thru every set up of hooking the speakers up and assigning the amp to your height speakers to running audyssy. It was pretty slick and impressive. Also I picked up roger waters the wall blu ray this week since I read It was a great atmos track and they were right. The entire thing blew me away. From audio to visuals. If you like The Wall at all from Pink Floyd it's worth a buy. (There are some melodramatic interludes with roger waters but they do go with the flow).

@TechnoDad 7 жыл бұрын

+oletheos I wonder why mine didn't do that on first startup. Anyway, I saw Roger Waters perform Dark Side of the Moon at the Hollywood Bowl, and that was awesome!!! Thanks for the tip about The Wall, I'll look into that! I heard the SACD of Dark Side is pretty awesome because it has a 5.1 soundtrack.

What are the main Difference between Denon AVR X4400h and X4300h Both are 9.2 channel,which is better for 7.2.4 setup. Plz help me select a Good AVR Receiver.

@TechnoDad 5 жыл бұрын

Hi! There isn't much of a difference with those two. The X4400H does come with Auro-3D where as you'll have to pay for that with the X4300H. If that doesn't matter to you, then the X4300H is a good bet. Also, with either of these two AVRs, you'll need a power amp to setup 7.2.4. I made a video on how to set it up: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gtt2pMt0rcmbe40.html

On the denon gui screen on the receiver itself what does the display show? Mine just shows the 5..its that little screen below where it says lfe. I tried switching sound mode between Dolby digital+Dolby surround and Dolby digital+neutral:x but they stay the same. When i hit the info button it shows all blue on the active speaker aide but on the input signal it just shows the 5. I'm using a Xbox one streaming some scenes from the movie "Okja" since thats atoms with a demon x4300h..same as yours but you just have 2 more channels. Thanks

If you use bi-amp connections from the four posts speakers, where do you connect the top speaker posts and low speaker posts to the A V receiver.About the crossover part,some say you should set it about 20 hertz more than the lowest hertz indicated on the speakers specs.

At 3:55 your talking about configurations. What I want to do in my theater room due to size is to run 11 channels. I want to use 3 (6 channels) pairs of down firing (height- front, middle, back). Does the 6300 allow this atmos configuration? Then the other 5 channels would be L/C/R and surround L/R.

@TechnoDad 6 жыл бұрын

Hi! That won't work. It will only process 4 height channels. The new X8500H will be able to process and power 13 channels for a 7.2.6 setup. It will run around $3,500. Also the new Marantz pre/pro will process the same and comes in at $5,500. I was able to experience 13 channel atoms at CES and it was pretty nuts!

Thanks for the reply. Trying to think of options when you only have a 13-14' L room and cant place surround speakers behind you(only the rear surrounds at the side, well slightly behind the listener) but want to utilize 11 channels instead of 9.
