Ray

Thanks for reaching out. I recently had a similar discussion with one of your colleagues, and I genuinely appreciate your almost scientific approach to testing audio equipment. From that perspective, I sometimes feel the methodology doesn’t fully reflect real-world music listening conditions. Metric

What you're experiencing is pretty normal. Blu Ray audio will be as close to reference levels as possible when they are doing the sound mixing.

I got my parents a Sonos Ray for their 65" living room tv and they find it plenty loud and clear for dialogue in movies. It's a b

So I’m very sorry to disappoint you but I managed to make my copy’s Atmos track sound excellent, mine is a 5.1 soundbar system and after some adjustments to both the picture and sound I got to sound beautiful for me. Set the volume up to 60-65 since Disney’s 4K blu rays tend to be a bit more quiet c

Sony supports all DTS formats and Dolby Atmos formats. Yes Sonos might have some better drivers but that doesn’t make it particular better. I’m not sure if Sonos supports it but Sony soundbars can enhance stereo sound to a more Spatial Audio experience. The user that wanted advise said that they use
