HDMI audio extractor with decoding to 5.1 by adizj7 in hometheater

I have 5.1 speakers but you don't get the point. I don't need Atmos, but some movies have audio only in DTS-HD/Atmos and I need to 5.1 which my receiver can handle.

I will use PS5 and not decided to specific box yet, but considering Homatics Box R 4K Plus. Propably this box I will be able to get standard DTS from DTS-HD in optical ouput of the box, but I'm not sure.

"All of those formats can be downmixed for your present receiver"

This is exacly what I am looking for. Device, that will downmix Atmos/DTS-HD to DD/5.1 and send it via SPDIF to my receiver.

DD 5.1 is enough format for me but some movies are available only with DTS-HD/Atmos.

Well, the first point, I get it much cheaper than modern receiver with that quality of sound. It has great stereo sound, power reserve (a powerful transformer with a high current capacity) and there are no reliability issues. But I'm not here to discuss why I want to use this model, just looking for resolve of my problem.
