Smyth Research Realiser A16
...out. Industry analysists have suggested this should be resolved by the end of 2023. Still haven't gotten it. I watch 100% movies and no music. ***Anyways, what alternatives are there to the A16?**** I'm currently using: Airpod Max headphones, AppleTV 4k, Infuse Pro for Real Debrid...- MichaelJames99

I got Boom 3D to work after you download the Windows application as well. You have to install both the extension and the desktop app to get it to work. Desktop app is on their website. So, with the Netflix 1080p extension, does it feed the Virtuoso application with seperate channels? In other...- MichaelJames99

The Netflix extension for 5.1 you are using doesnt feed into Virtuoso does it? I just enabled Boom 3D and then launched Virtuoso and it still shows 2 channels only for Netflix thru Chrome- MichaelJames99

I think I found the link. https://apl-hud.com/product/virtuoso/ So is this only for Windows platforms? Have they created a Firestick app on the App Store? Or on the AppleTV4k, Apple TV app store app? Like the VLC Media player for Android for playing streaming movies. It installs thru the...- MichaelJames99

While I still wait for the preordered A16 to arrive, I tried using the Airpods Max and AppleTV 4k watching Atmos movies. its ok... I never feel like its like my old surround system using real speakers. (I dont think it pinponts objects in a 360 environment well.) For convenience, its...- MichaelJames99

Its been 5 years since I dropped $1700 on a preorder. Istn there a legal obligation of "good faith" to get the preorders filled now? Its not a reasonable expectation to have to wait 5 years.- MichaelJames99

And if I ever get my A16, I am wondering if there is somewhere here in the US I could either drive or fly into that would do the setup for me on the A16 and then load the custom PRIR's? Where that might be and what they would charge? I'm in southern Ohio. I dont want to have to go back thry...- MichaelJames99

AirPods Max
Im thinking Apple will implement lossless audio in Airpods Max 2. Not sure if thru Bluetooth, WIFI or special proprietary apple software. Definately a new chip/hardware. Probably force a new AppleTV 2023 box too to increase sales. Im wondering if that would make Atmos and Spacial Audio sound...- MichaelJames99

Long time no post here.... so I bought the APM's about 4 months ago. I am using exclusively for spacial audio/Atmos movies going to a 2019 ATV4k unit.

I believe he only said that because I'm an Android user and only getting an iPhone for firmware updates and HTRF.. he's referring to the fact I dont have to activate a phone to do this.

So .. as I wait for my A16.. I ended up buying the Airpod Max. The only Apple product I own is the ATV4k. (I'm an android and Windows 11 PC guy). So far, its the best Dolby Atmos for movies I've heard. In Disney+ you have to start the movie then put the headphones on to get Atmos. Netflix...- MichaelJames99

Also, just found out on my LG CX tv that has Atmos enabled internal speakers, you can trick Disney+ to allow Atmos to pass to the Max. Take off your headphones, start the movies using internal Atmos tv speakers, put the headphones on and it passes the Atmos stream to the headphones. This does...- MichaelJames99
