HT-A9 M2

Hello,

 

I recently purchased the HT-A9 M2.

 

I have it connected via the centre speaker on the XR-83A90J.

 

I have run the calibration tool. However, dialog is not only coming from the tv speakers but also the front left and right speakers. I thought it would only do this if it was creating a virtual center channel.

 

Has anyone else had this issue, or know why it is happening?

 

I didn't have this on the original HT-A9.

Is the A9 connected to just the centre speaker on the TV, or by eARC as well? Otherwise, the left and right TV speakers won’t mute.

 

Beyond that, I’d expect the front sound stage, dialogue and all, to be spread across from the left front A9 speaker to the right one, to locate the dialogue with where the actors are, on the screen, and for the voices to be punched up a bit by the TV centre speaker, but not dragged down to mono by it.

Hi,

 

I have it connected via the centre channel jack and I am using eARC.
