I know this is subjective but is the G1 worth considering second hand in comparison to the G2 (can’t afford the G3).

Onkyo SKS-HT588(B) 5.1.2 Channel Home Cinema Speaker System

With many mind-blowing features, this Onkyo TX-SR494 offers ease of installation and setup. The system is so straightforward for you not to even look at the guidebook. Offering these high features this Onkyo TX-SR494 has also 4K at 60 Hz. Onkyo TX-SR494 Unique Features Every HDMI input supports the same signal that your old receiver may not. So, there is no worry about which port you are plugging into. As well as not having to fit ceiling speakers in your home, the main speakers can all be wall-mounted. This gives an ideal balance between keeping the speakers out of the way but without going to the expense and inconvenience of in-wall speaker systems.

I do have a couple of questions as I configure the device - I can't seem to find how to rename the 4 HDMI inputs with a name that suits me - the device insists on tagging "set-top box" on the end of the text I specify. I'm also trying to find the Multi-View app which I have used extensively on the 65E6 to split the screen to enable me to watch two football matches side-by-side. I'll be very disappointed if this app is no longer available, especially now that I have a bigger screen....... Now this technology is an interesting one especially if you consider how much trouble it can save you from adding more speakers and more cables around your house but as with everything there is a catch. As the sound doesn’t originate from the ceiling and is based on the bouncing effect the overall result feels less accurate, not as pronounced and the Atmos effects have less elevation at best. Anyone using this with PC with an Nvida gpu able to get full colour space, I can get 10bit ybcr444 but only limited, according to Vincent Teoh it should be able to.

And as time goes by we see this becoming more and more usual in soundbars also. Soundbars in general are for those that want an easy to use setup or for those that don’t have the necessary space to go for a full dedicated audio system. And we can see now that manufacturers are using up-firing drivers in their new models also showing that this technology is not smokes and mirrors but can really provide a genuine, even if not the same in quality, Dolby Atmos experience. If i connect the fire cube directly to the tv the video output is rgb 8b tm - 3840x2160p - 60hz fixed (same as hue sync box without the dolby option enabled). Besides the Onkyo TX-SR494 gives the fantastic sound quality there are also some extra benefits you can enjoy. Spend alone time with your favorite music or spread the loudest music into your whole house. Spend some private time with your favorite music

Today i bourght the Sony STR-DN1080 to replace my receiver as I moved to 4K and want Dobly Atmos (I bourght 2 extra satellite Mordaunt Short M10 speakers for the Atmos ceiling sound). Now if you go for dedicated speaker setups you don’t need any specific speakers types as any speaker looking downward can do the job. It all depends on the quality and the looks of the speakers you will choose. But if you choose a setup that has up firing speakers integrated in the main speakers then your options are more limited but still you have enough options to choose from depending on size and quality. AccuEQ room acoustic calibration work according to speaker size, distance from the receiver position, and the presence of the speaker. This feature actually detects these factors and then creates a virtual environment around the room. THX Multimedia rating is for computer speakers. Recommendation is 70cm for optimal listening distance (ears to speakers) and for those Z906 best results were gotten when they were between 50cm - 1meter from listener (for front three) and for surrounds double the amount of distance (~1,5m). Without forgetting the speakers should be in front of you and placed ear height. So yes the Logitechs works best at close to listener.
