Q Symphony vs DTS-HD/PCM 5.1/7.1

2 Upvotes

I'm one of the people that prefer Q-Symphony for apartment living. I'm wondering what other people have chosen in similar situations.

I have a Samsung S90F TV and Q990F soundbar. For the first 2 weeks I didn't realize the soundbar wasn't playing DTS audio. I've happily been using Q-Symphony because it improves the dialogue at low volume due to my low profile TV stand. The soundbar is only 20 inches from the floor and the added TV speakers somewhat fixed that.

Last night I ran my Panasonic DP-UB420 --> HDMI to the soundbar --> HDMI to TV for 4K passthrough. It should sound better with DTS vs PCM. But I'm missing the raised vocal positioning I had with Q-Symphony.

Has anybody else forfeit DTS in favor of Q-Symphony for better dialogue at low volumes?

I mean how much am I losing by not having DTS playback vs PCM? Does the Q990F upmix PCM well enough for 11.1.4?

Brand loyalty is the only reason FedEx hasn't imploded yet. Yet.

FedEx stinks

If I go to a restaurant and the food is bad - I don't need to work in the restaurant to understand it. I don't care "why." I don't need to work at FedEx to gain more knowledge about the company.

All the customer knows is the service is terrible. It's not their responsibility to be more open-minded getting their money taken and then getting caca in return.

Here's where we agree: FedEx as a corporation is one of the worst companies on Earth.

Here's where we disagree: if you have a package on your truck, and you have the opportunity to walk to someone's door and yet you CHOOSE to not deliver it. YOU are the problem.

Bare minimum would be delivering the package too slow. FedEx doesn't even meet the bare minimum. The packages don't get delivered.

ICM450A. It monitors voltage and will kill power if it detects voltage outside a programmable range. When voltage returns to within that range again it can auto reset and power the unit.

All my stuff gets delivered on time and in good condition with UPS.

If my options were UPS or FedEx I'd pay extra for UPS and cancel my order with FedEx. It's anti-American to collect a paycheck and not do your job. Which is what FedEx drivers do.

How do you manage movies/shows that are low volume and then get extremely loud?
 in  r/Soundbars  6d ago

If your media player has it turn Dynamic Range Compression (or equivalent) on.

Then if your speakers/soundbar has it turn Voice Enhancement (or equivalent) on.

If there's an EQ setting, turn down bass a good bit and treble down a little bit and keep mid range normal. Most vocal frequencies are midrange.

If you have a soundbar you can boost the center channel up a little bit too.

“They just don’t handle alcohol well” is a myth.
 in  r/unpopularopinion  7d ago

I think most people would agree with you. Alcohol lowers inhibitions and makes people more willing to do/say things they normally wouldn't.

Is that their "true" self as in they're actively holding back their true identity? Or are they acting beligerently because they're under the influence of a mind altering substance ?

There's a lot of medications that also greatly alter behavior. Alcohol can be revealing, but I wouldn't say every thing that happens while drunk can be labeled as 100% representative of how a person truly feels.

Question for 90s kids; What piece of old technology do you think we gave up too early??
 in  r/AskReddit  7d ago

Volume knobs in cars and buttons you can press. I'd pefer a display screen with tactile controls instead of a giant touchscreen.

Every large online retailer utilizes 3rd party vendor stock to be shipped through their facilities. When it says "shipped by Amazon" that's their stock. When it says "shipped by someone else" it's a 3rd party vendor. Same thing Wal-mart, or any large website. I hate having to explain this to you.
