    The integration of speakers, electronics, room correction and parametric EQ that Steinway Lyngdorf offers is absolutely unique. I'd recommend it to all my millionaire friends, audiophile or not. And for the audiophiles: they have dipole speaker designs with AMT tweeters, and line array setups for cinema applications. This is definitely high end stuff.

      I can’t make it sound good, even with the 5 band EQ on the app. In reality, it hardly has any sub bass at all in comparison to the mid bass. And I agree, the treble is kinda terrible.

    I'm always very critical of high price tag, high end speakers, but with TAD, I actually tend to be more forgiving. They do everything right without needing to be have a massive space to sound great. 0.5 million is still insanely a high price tag, but smaller version do just as fine and cost a lot less.

    Is this possible: left front ( over tv), tv as center, right front (over tv), soundbar ( with up firing speakers also and to compensate those over tv speakers), subwoofer (maybe two), left surround and right surround (both with upfiring ceiling bouncing atmos like). And maybe even two more surrounds so back is divided: left side ,left back ,right back and right side.

    Hopefully, it will be compatible with the NVIDIA SHIELD Pro

    • @ecoustics
      @ecoustics 13 днів тому

      Unfortunately that isn't very likely. For it to work with the NVIDIA Pro streamer, NVIDIA would have to license DTS:X and deploy a DTS:X Profile 2 decoder. The Shield itself is surely powerful enough to do the decoding but they'd need to pay Xperi a licensing fee to do so and deliver the software decoder via an update. The current NVIDIA hardware does not decode DTS at all; it only supports DTS passthrough. DTS passthrough doesn't support DTS:X Profile 2 - that needs to be decoded directly on the source device. People have been asking for a new hardware version of the Shield for years. Maybe if they do deliver one, it will have DTS:X support? We hope so anyway.

The display on my Marantz AV8805 would read IMAX/DTS-X. It was definitely a bump in the audio and bass on the movies I watched. Therefore, it is compatible.
