You are 100% correct. I tried Blade Runner 2049 on my current setup of A95L + Sony HT-A9 and SA-SW5 sub and unless I have "Prioritize pass through" in system settings I lose all surround effects even if Passthrough -> HDMI is enabled in the advanced settings of the Plex App. So everything TV...

My plan is to watch 4k HDR movies from my Plex server. So TrueHD 7.1 48kHz.

So for my usecase, it would take audio from the eARC of the TV and then output it via AoIP to something like the Genelec 9401A? https://www.thomann.de/intl/genelec_9401a.htm Too bad it has only HDMI 2.0 :( But if I connect my gaming PC directly to my TV I should still get 4k 120Hz AND audio to...

Glad to hear. In my proposed system (A95L -> Zone2Pro -> VanityPro -> Genelec 9301A -> 7350 Sub + five 8330 monitors I will control the global volume with the Sony TV remote. You still didn't tell me how do you see the volume level when you use the Genelec rotary knob. You need to connect the...

Isnt't that the job of the source? In my case the Sony A95L will be set to PCM instead of Passthrough in Audio System Settings.

So, to recap, from the VP to the 9301A: AES1 Out -> AES In 1 AES2 Out -> AES In 4 (LFE) AES3 Out -> AES In 3 AES4 Out -> empty (no cable connected). Please confirm if this is correct.

Can you please tell me exactly how did you connect each AES output of the VanityPro to each input of the Genelec 9301A? I ask because AES Input 4 is labeled as LFE. Thanks

Is this a good ideea? https://www.thenaudio.com/product/zone2-pro-8k-earc-audio-processor/

Anyone?

Do you still need to buy the Genelec 9301A? I ask because at some point there was talk about implementing bass management to the VP directly.

Thanks for replying Nattage! There was a video where a guy from AudioPraise demonstrated that you can adjust the digital volume of the VanityPro with the Apple remote from 0 to 100. I don't get it why you can't just set the Genelecs to 0dB. Both the Genelecs and the VanityPro control the volume...

Why would I need the Genelec volume control anymore? I read your previous posts and you claim that the Apple TV remote can control the volume and shutdown the tv, the ATV and this extractor at the same time. If that's the case then all you have to do in GLM software is to set the digital volume...

Hi all, I wish to build a Genelec 5.1 digital home cinema (7350 sub + five 8330s). The goal is to watch 4k HDR movies via the Plex app installed on my Sony A95L TV. First thing first. Can I connect this AudioPraise VanityPro to my TV's eARC port? If not, what can I do besides buying an Apple TV 4k?

Received the DAC3 B two weeks ago to test with the SP400 and daaaamn...it bests even the Lynx Hilo at +24dBu. It has the same sound signature as in tonality and dynamics but it is cleaner and more transparent. To be fair I initially thought Benchmark was full of marketing gimmicks because...

Yes, it's the remote. I was thinking about something better than the default remote. Either one of their newer remotes or an Android app.

Does anyone know of an alternative way to remote control the SP400? The original remote is trash and the down button now barely works. The SMSL RC-8C remote does not work with the SP400. Are there other remotes or an Android app or something?

The SP400 has "high precision low noise 256 level relay volume control" (see the link in the previous post). Isn't this the same as yours? Anyway, I'm on a hunt for DACs that output +24dBu to test this headphone amplifier. I have never heard something like this before, and I tried Violectric...

I currently have the SMSL SP400 (THX 888 headphone amp) paired with the Lynx Hilo DAC. The Hilo's XLR output level is set to +24dBu (12.28V) and the SP400 is set on High Gain. Eventhough the Hilo is old tech (Cirrus Logic CS4398 DACs), due to its +24dBu output, the clarity and dynamics I get in...
