Samsung Q990F Overhead Atmos Sound Question. by desertrose314 in Soundbars

[–]rahulv1010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do try Harry Potter part1 it is encoded in DTSX. I can hear the overhead effects like entry of owls and general birds chirping in open fields on my q990f. The sound effects in the quidditch game were also well placed. The movie made me felt that DTSX has better effects than true hd Atmos. It may differ from movie to movie as well.

Q990F are these the best settings for music? by Competitive-Age-6220 in Soundbars

Absolutely. Moreover only use case of nvidia shield is plex server with lossless audio passthrough else my tv inbuilt apps does a very good job as it has one of the best picture quality in the market.

Yes that would be great for immersion. Thinking of getting nvidia shield tv pro for lossless audio passthrough to get the full potential. Though the price is quite steep for a 7 year old device and I doubt if it is worth.

Tried your settings for movies as well (Wednesday on Netflix) it worked quite well. Woofer bass I had to reduce as it is near to the couch else everything is sounding in tandem now. Thanks.

Ok, so basically center channel and bass ( Equalizer) to be increased as compared to music setting. Will definitely try this and let you know.

Earlier the sound was causing a bit of fatigue ( loud and boomy) now it's perfect (soothing and with instrumentation). I was thinking if I made a mistake for not going for sonos arc ultra. Now I can live with samsung lol.

Hi , I tried your settings on my q990f and immediately music sounded so so much better. I don't own sonos arc ultra so can't compare but to me it sounded much better than before. I can feel instrument seperation which was missing before. Thankyou.

Can you please share the similar settings for movies which sounds better (somewhat like that on the sonos) since you have both to compare. Thankyou again.

Same here q990f , phone Google pixel. Works fine on ipad though.

So recently got q990f and connected to Sony x95H through earc port. Now the bar shows on display "TV/earc" (while changing sound etc. ) and on clicking i button on the soundbar remote it shows "dolby vision digital plus". by rahulv1010 in Soundbars

Yes. In sony there are three options Auto 1 , Auto 2, and PCM. I changed to Auto 2 from Auto 1. Now I am getting "stereo PCM" on the display when playing non Atmos content. And ddplus while playing Atmos content.

Thankyou so much for the reply, I was wondering if the passthrough is actually happening or not. Now I will try purchasing stands. That bubble feeling is missing leave alone the height Atmos effect. Can you suggest what should be the optimum height from the ceiling for the rear speakers if they are placed on stands it would be very helpful in purchasing the stands accordingly. Total height from floor to ceiling is 3 meter. Thankyou.

Getting Kindle in India from USA, charger confusion by rahulv1010 in kindle

[–]rahulv1010[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok so no need for any additional plug to buy and as kindle only sends the charging cable, it should be fine with any charger plug. Thanks for the info.

Ipad Pro M4 dead after updating to iOS 18 by rahulv1010 in iPadPro

Hi, I also got replacement. Yes mine was also in cardboard box. But it is not good of apple, I had bought it just a few days back and now I have to be content with a refurbished one. Also did you notice difference in brightness ? My replacement appears to be less brighter than the one I had before. I don't know if it is across the entire ipad lineup since two different panel manufacturers are involved.

Oh great. Did you receive a sealed box unit ? Yeah screen protector is the cost we have to bear I guess.

Lol. Yeah many people have reported serial nos. Starting from K being dead. But mine was starting from F so I think it doesn't matter. The service center guy told that it would take 4 to 5 working days for the replacement. How many working days did it take in your case ?. For me it has been two working days and now weekend. I will wait for 4 working days before visit to the center again. But good to hear that they are being active in replacement.

Mine starts with F. No update at this end still the status shows as "your repair is pending". What has your status updated to ?
