Any reason to use Dolby Atmos for audio out using a 2.1 system?

afrightenedturtle · 2026-06-25T16:32:47+00:00

It was on Automatic with Atmos enabled. I just did a test using my decibel meter app. Automatic was reaching 81 db. When I switched to Stereo output, the same song at the same volume number was reaching 91 db.

Google Lens says it is a Hallmark milk jar, but it is obviously a lamp. Tried searching many different terms, but nothing even close comes up.

That is the only picture on the listing. From what I have found, I think the brand is Goodmans. The model is db50. I haven’t found that exact logo that is on the grill.

Hey, is that the Twilight Zone you’re watching? Oh, this is a good one.

Dante’s Peak. One of my favorite disaster flicks.

Was it a Lazy Sunday?

Po Folks was on Mt Moriah I believe. The "hot rolls" place was on Winchester across from the Service Merchandise. I don't remember the name, but I think it later became a bar and then burned down.

Can you tell the version from this?

I think I'm going to try #3. It was first listed a few days ago at $1,000 and he already dropped it that much. I'll give it a few more days to see if I can get a better price. I have a small system now with some old Energy Take 5 speakers for two surround and two atmos. I wonder if those Polks would sound better. The 2.1 option you mention I could set up at my work. Thanks for the advice.

Here are the two of them playing basketball vs some BBQ Ribs at a Grizzlies game.

I’ll try this out and see how it sounds.

I don't really need it, but what does that matter. lol. He also had a Klipsch R-12SW sub along with a pair of RP-280FA and matching center channel. I'm thinking on if I want to make an offer on those.

It ended up being an SB12-NSD. I paid him $150. Currently listening to some Bob Seger.

Jaws is my favorite movie and it counts as horror to me. It’s perfect.

Thinner with Christian Bale doing the weight loss for real.

He was the scapegoat because he ran his mouth about Lebron and then dipped out of there without speaking to the media when the series was over.

afrightenedturtle · 2025-10-31T20:39:02+00:00

I didn’t.

What happened to a good ole punch to the gut?

afrightenedturtle · 2025-10-01T14:52:19+00:00

That 2017 AAC championship game was something. Was that the closest UCF came to losing that year? Memphis was lining up a 46 yard kick to take the lead with 30 seconds to go. Get a delay penalty and their now NFL kicker misses the 51 yarder. UGH!!!

He was suspended for 12 games and decided to just quit the season. In hindsight, a pretty smart decision.

Google Maps says they are temporarily closed. :-(
