The format button really only shows you all the bitrate options avialable for the amount of channels you have available to you. As for me, I can select from 16 20 and 24 bit at 48kHz, all at 2 channels.

I'm not sure what you mean by select box? I did click the configure speakers button (shown in 2nd picture) if that's what you mean? Which yes, does show only 2 available channels to select from. Not entirely sure either, but I guess I figured that multichannel would have been automatically...

Apologies. You know I thought it might be that too. I've tried hdmi through 3 different adaptors now all expensive and of good quality, including apple's own adaptor, but have only ever seen 2 channels for the a16 on the M1. Perhaps the issue is with the MacBook and might be helpful trying a...

Hi guys. been a while since posting on here but I'm having an issue that I have tried to find the answer to before posting but can't. Anyone else having a problem with their MacBook M1 not outputting anything more than 2ch stereo through hdmi? It's attached to the a16 through a usb-c to hdmi...

Thank you for the suggestion! I'll look into getting a shield then. How does the plex work for the shield? Is it just a matter of downloading the app and drag and drop the file kinda thing? Is it a paid app? You’re right I believe I do have the newer 24ch version. So does this mean the ‘atmos’...

Nope, never turned on any upmixers. Also sure as hell sounds atmos, and like I’m getting audio from the corresponding speakers which do turn on on the map, especially during a gameplay (i.e helicopter flying above and things like that). I’ve attached some pics of those values. As you can see I’m...

Big fan of the atv4k I see, ha! I do believe the atv4k is capable of rendering atmos metadata, as far as streaming goes anyway, since as I mentioned I'm able to see the speaker icons reflect that. I guess perhaps there was another "update" since that time to rectify the issue. But as I said, it...

Hi folks!. What sources are you guys using for playing your own digital movie files with encoded atmos successfully on the A16? I don't mean through Netflix and other streaming services, more like files that you already have on a hard drive. I just got an atv4k and have been trying to use the...

Thanks for you response! I'm just trying them out on my newly received Doge 10 tube amp primarily bought for my speakers, which I believe sends 60wpc into 8 ohms. I suppose a higher resistance would halve the power output so it would probably make more sense to use the 8ohm taps than the 4ohm so...

Hi guys, hoping I can get some quick help. When using speakers amps to power the 1266, should the 8 ohm or 4 ohm outputs be used? I currently have them hooked up to the 4 ohm output on my amp and it sounds fine but not sure if that’s the right way to go about it. Is one output safer to use than...

Hi guys, what other headphones would work with the Abyss 3-pin mini xlr cables ?

Would be pretty cool to try out your measurements for that theater room. But just a suggestion, what’s the possibility of finding a dummy head to use for your measurements?... you know since each individuals heads are different and all... Perhaps that would make the measurements more...

Yes I remember looking into the moon amp back when I saw that you liked it with your TC's. I'm not very well versed with rolling either, but I do like the sound of tubes. I think that's part of why I decided to try out the LTA. The designs of their amps are modelled specifically around the...

Yes like wise, good to see you here too. I remember seeing you first coming to this forum some months back after always having saw you around the Abyss forums. Was happy to see you discover the A16. I currently have my TC's with Abyss for a few weeks now for an issue I was having. Before that I...

Background follower and owner here. Don't really post much but saw z reviews recent "review" and felt a need to make a comment on his video. I tried to straighten out one or two things he clearly got wrong. Hopefully if it helps to undeter even one less person who was perhaps considering a...

Is there a place where people are posting their PRIR for download. I found sander's and Rene's (by the way thank you) and tried manLOUD routines with both of them with varied results. Wondered if I could try with someone else's Also I'm having a weird issue when performing the manLOUD routine...

Hi guys new poster, but I've had my A16 for some weeks now and just getting around to playing with it here and there when I have to time to get familiar with the device. I think I'm ready to do some real measurements now and I have some local hifi shops that can probably help me with that...

Thanks for the reply Joe! So would simply asking the manufacturer over at Wells audio if the Innamorata’s L & R negative terminals are individually grounded or not determine if I can use a TRS termination (Yes being for grounded, & No for amplified)? Yes I was also thinking of using my old...

Absolutely not harsh, its just the truth. & also very informative thank you. I've read some others having success with their speaker amps on the abyss, namely the Moon 600i for example which has a similar power rating to the one I've listed with 125 W into 8 ohm. Would this mean that I should be...

So would you say that an amp with these specifications would be suitable for the 47 ohm TC? how much power exactly would the cans be getting? and how much power is too much power for the TC? Sorry I'm very novice to the electricity side of things but I'm trying to learn. Power Output: 120 wpc...

Thanks for your response and suggestion :)

Hey folks, how are you guys connecting to your speaker amps? Is there more than one option? Also are there certain specs in an amp that limits it’s use with the abyss, i.e too powerful of an amp? 150w @ 8ohms, 210w @ 4ohms?

First post, yay me! I previously experienced this quite a bit with my Phi’s left can as well, regardless of cup positioning, & searched high and low trying to see if anyone had experienced the same thing. The distortion was bad almost to a right out buzzing sound. Thankfully abyss was kind...
