Hi all,
I've been into 5.1 for 20 years by now and into "serious" streaming (stereo only) for about 5 years. I can see that there is a lot of multi channel streaming offered nowadays and I wonder what is needed for getting this to work?
My setup is a 5.1 AV Amplifier/Speaker configuration and a Bluesound Node 2 streamer and I use Tidal for streaming. Given this gear, can I listen to any kind of multichannel streaming?
- Will a digital connection between the Node and the amplifier send the correct signal to the amplifier which can decode it properly?
- Will a Dolby Atmos mix be downmixed to 5.1/7.1?
- Do I need a HDMI connection or will any digital connection do?
Anyone with experience in this area, I would very much like to hear your comments on this topic. Any upgrade to Atmos is not on the horizon for me yet, but to be able to stream in discrete 5.1 would be nice.
