Speakers, tube selection, av and tube amp connection
Dear all Chings, long time no followed on av stuff, cause tv got dead and things gotta setup and learn again, spare my ignorance…
Background…mostly for Netflix, gaming, and also wanna experience Atmos…hence taking the chance of replacing a new tv (LG G1 ) , av amp (SR 6015) and then further upon my old 5.1 set up…; current setup- Podspeakers for FR/L, rear, SW, Music Pro for centre. Newly purchased mission as Atmos front and CA Minx 12 for surround. For a bit more music running a Aodixun tube amp to power the Sonus Fabre Concerto on shabby HK HD990 CD player….
Q1: Cause centre speaker got dead, any suggestion on centre speaker? Really hv to buy the same brand for the whole set to max the experience? Budget best within 3 to 5k. Been thinking to get a Sonus Fabre centre 2nd hand but shall be over budget or not sure the shabby 6015 is a right fit, outlook wise the old KEF XQ50c in cherry red pairing my current SF matches best, but either it kinda looks obsolete or unable to get. Or must I start to plan buying CA centre to gradually phase out my Pods…, bit puzzled…
Q2: Really wanna feel about Atmos music or video, so do I need to buy a new cd or blueray player? can I use my ps5 and Xbox x instead?
Q3: am using tv EARC to connect with sound bar, and using sr6015 EARC out to connect TV HDMI1, hence I can’t use TV’s Netflix app to connect the av amp for playing Atmos, am I connecting it wrong?
Q4: if I want to play Spotify and tindal on my tube amp, what shall I do? Do I need to buy some new devices or is it possible I can connect the zone 2 audio L/R out from the sr6015 to my tube amp?
Q5: some friends telling me to change ps5 and Xbox x power cable can change the video and sound quality of the machine, is that true? Any of such recommendation and where can I get them?
Q6: is that true to change some tubes can hv better experience? If yes anywhere about suggested? Any model suggestions?
Million thx guys
Update: connected audio out on sr6015 zone 2 preout, streaming through iPad Pro to it, pressed zone 2 switch, still main av speakers has sound, can’t make it to the tube amp and another pairs of speaker…{:1_247:} Update: finally can listen the streaming music from the tube amp after setting up correctly in the zone 2 as source in SR6y015, yet, the sound is significantly less ‘powerful’ vs connecting to CD player (streaming hi-Fi quality file from Tidal). Is that normal?
