Bought and just watched the first one and it was great! Had asked for the 4K Blu-Ray for Xmas and am now returning it - £50 it was!

I don’t have Dolby Vision or Atmos but on my amp it said it was DD I presume meaning Dolby Digital but it sounded really good.

Your old Pioneer amp won't do Dolby Atmos, but your SC-LX901 will.

I don’t have the speakers to do it though - I presume that will be a factor?

Yes you’d need to attach a couple of speakers to the height channels , could maybe try some M1s if you have them and mount them high on your wall.

you have a Pioneer LX-901 so you need to get those height speakers Gel. I have M1s for LCR and Dali Altecos for height F&R well worth it.

My room is not suitable for Atmos I have explored that option before when I had a guy round from a home cinema shop. What I was asking about though would the LX901 still decode Atmos even without the addition speakers?

Dolby Atmos without Atmos speakers will switch to Dolby TrueHD.

Very cool - thanks BB! Ah man, the other day we put it in the spare bedroom wardrobe and buried it under loads of stuff! 🙂

Dolby Digital according to my Pioneer sc-lx90 amp.

Gone back to the 81 it sounds better!

Got it working but iTunes still sounded better on my 81 way more powerful surround sound.

Did you try turning the volume up? Different amps have different sweet spots for volume, and in some you need to crank it up a bit more than usual. Don't rely on the number what indicates volume.

Yes, I did find that out with these two amps. The 81 is a pure beast in terms of sound though. The left and right front speakers kick butt!

I think I am going to sell the 901 again I didn’t enjoy using it this time.

I assume you mean when using your LX901. If the sound format is set to stereo then the sub won’t make any sound. You need to cycle through the sound formats using the remote.

It was on Dolby Digital I had to go into the sound settings on the crossover and set it up again.

Yes, basically pulling out the sub cable and putting it in again fixed it after I fiddled with the rest of it. Seems to very fussy that cable I have had no sub sound a lot!

Tbh I’ve found the same with my Susano compared to the LX88 I had before. The LX88 did Atmos and it was good, the Susano is a similar age to your amp so does not, but overall it sounds much better; even games with Dolby Atmos sound tracks through my Xbox One X sound amazing, my amp outputs Dolby Digital Pro Logic IIx and the sound is still all around me, just doesn’t have “Dolby Atmos” on the display!

Yes, I was thinking about your 88 yesterday with Atmos and nearly asked you a question but then it went out of mind. I reckon for sure my Susano was a dud!
