Beam Gen 2

There is no clearly right or clearly wrong option. AV Amplifier mode allows for specific multichannel config selection, but you run the risk of incorrectly identifying how many channels you have (maybe one thinks they have 7.1, but this is a true 5.1 setup). If you select Soundbar, then you rely on

This is super annoying. Nobody but Apple AFAIK uses this weird obscure version of Atmos, and they aren’t very clear on it, nor was Sonos that Atmos would not work without HDMI eARC. I would imagine the number of HDMI 2.1 tv’s out there is insanely low compared to how many people have HDMI 2.0, even

Just seeing what anyone that uses it f

Há uns anos andava com a mesma questão mas depois desisti porque a trabalheira de andar a passar cabos para ter um 5.1 ou um 7.1, mais o preço de colunas e amplificador dedicado, não iria aproveitar todo o som e não iria ter espaço para tudo.
