mean wells has power supplies that can go above thousands of watts. Perhaps this RSP-1000-48 https://www.meanwell.com/Upload/PDF/RSP-1000/RSP-1000-SPEC.PDF However, 2 x 400-500w power supplies actually may be cheaper.

not entirely accurate. A PC software can decode full 9.x.6 atmos track, and play it over 16 speakers. https://professional.dolby.com/product/dolby-atmos-content-creation/dolby-atmos-renderer/ It works great for music. Does not work on moives though.

There is a thread here on ASR talking about convolver. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/a-comparison-of-convolution-engines.43290/post-1595453

Maybe use Audiolense and a convolver for active crossovers? REW or Direc Live (ART in 2024) for room correction?

I think an Arvus with AES3 instead of AES67 may interest many buyers.

I have always been a big fan of RME because of its bomb-proof reliability. But, I think I will do Merging/aes67 if I am going to build an system around an Arvus.

Those specs are even, at least on paper, better than the new RME 32 channel DAC with Dante https://www.rme-usa.com/m-32-pro-2-d.html

HDFury 8K VRROOM has HDMI 2.1. https://hdfury.com/product/8k-vrroom-40gbps/

Get a HDFury device for $500. Done

probably 5.0 is the minimum. 7.0 and 9.0 are better, I presume.

This is what I read between the lines from existing ART materials. 50Hz low pass for the sub, maybe near field. 50Hz - 150Hz, using all the speakers available.

I think ART encourages one to use real speakers (15" or bigger woofers) for the base layers. Those tiny 2 ways with 6" woofer are probably not enough.

My experiences with these OP amps is that one may not be able to tell any differences. A lot depends on the rest of your audio chain. Furthermore, the quality of your power supply matters more. Something that I wanted to try but never got around is a parallel nec 5532 amp, designed by Douglas...

Thanks for your reply. I use a conjunction "or" as you may have used a pro amp with built-in AES67 interface. I am not too familar with Merging products, but I believe that MAD is a software ASIO driver for Windows 10 or 11 and the Hapi can act as a switch as it has 2 ethernet ports. So, you...
