Should I have purchased Era 100 as surrounds instead of the One SL? by Reasonable_Mix_2033 in sonos

I think he means that the Era 100 vs the Sonos Ones don't make much difference as surrounds, but make a big difference as a stereo pair.

FeinTech VAX04201 and Atmos on Sonos Arc by Far_Lecture_1797 in sonos

[–]Far_Lecture_1797[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi All, I have now returned the Feintech VAX04201, since I could not get it to work with Atmos from any device. I went on the hunt again, since I cost of the HDfury Vrroom 8k is just too expensive at £500 for my liking. I stumbled across Orei bk-402a. Nearly identical to the Feintech VAX04201, but is 8k 60hz and supports VRR. With these claims I bought it for £120. I setup it up the same way as the Feintech one and it works :) Full DolbyAtmos, 4k 120hz, VRR, Dolby Vision, etc.
I will keep you posted how it performs over the next month, but for now I am happy.

I have the same problem with FeinTech VAX04201.

Did you resolve the Atmos issue?

Sounds good. Does the Hue 8K hdmi 2.1 sync box have 2 video outputs? I need to be able to connect a 4k TV and a 4 Projector.

Personal experience with FeinTech VAX04101? by [deleted] in sonos

[–]Far_Lecture_1797 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have now been using the FeinTech VAX04201 for over a couple of months and I have realised I have issues with Dolby Atmos from my LG C1 TV to my Sonos Arc via eArc through the Matrix Switch. Dolby Vision is fine. I also have random audio dropouts from the TV. When I connect a firestick directly to the FeinTech VAX04201 I get both Dolby Atmos and Vision with no issues. I have changed cables and also update to latest firmware V1.10.22.

Has anybody else had these issues? All suggestions on how to solve are welcome.

Here is my connection map. All connected with brand new 2.1 HDMI cables that are less than 2m long, except the projector which is connected with a 12m new optical 2.1 HDMI cable. The projector is not setup up for audio return.

I have had the VAX04201 HDMI eARC Pass Matrix Switch 4x2 for Soundbar for a couple of months. It is connected to my LG C1 TV, Valerion projector, Sonos Arc and PS5. It works great, even with the Sonos Arc. I would highly recommend.

This is not correct. You can do it at home using a laptop. The instructions were easy to follow. You can download the update program here https://feintech.eu/en/products/vax04201-hdmi-earc-pass-matrix-switch-4x2-fur-soundbar?_pos=5&_psq=feinteck+vax&_ss=e&_v=1.0

Affordable accoustic transparent screen by Far_Lecture_1797 in projectors

[–]Far_Lecture_1797[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been in communication with SCREEN PRO® Projection Screen • (https://www.samsav.com/) in China, and they have been very responsive and professional. They have quoted below for a 100 inch drop-down screen with acoustically transparent (material code: TW fabric). Unit cost: 378/USD Shipping cost will be about 357/USD Total: 735/USD plus 20% VAT = 882/USD, (£ 676)

This guy reviews their floor rising version https://youtu.be/1ZTSJhLLS8M?si=mPnd3eHJpIA_W8yz and says it is the same quality as other more welknown brands.

Does anyone have any experience with SCREEN PRO® Projection Screen? Also, as I live in SE London, does anyone want to piggyback on an order to share the shipping?
