Audio surround sound question

hereistheclue · Aug 17, 2014

My mom just gave us a free surround sound. It's a little older and has no hdmi input or optical input. I want to hook up my Xbox one so to it. If I hook my Xbox through optical to my tb, and than rca from tv to surround sound, will it work? Any advice on
older supported htib with xbox one?

Xbox video store - no surround sound

All the movies list only English audio and no surround sound. I know they used to advertise surround sound. Does anyone know if the movies still have surround sound? even my purchased movies don't show surround sound. No DTS or Dolby

earforce x42 or razer chimaera 5.1?

First Question:

I own a Razer Chimaera 5.1 and I am very happy with it, it's both has quality audio and is comfortable to wear.The voice can get muzzled if the game audio is set too high, which you have to correct with the ingame audio settings as the headset only has buttons
for voice and general volume.

Second Question:

With an actual surround sound set 5.1/7.1 are the amount of speakers+subwoofer which it consists of. With surround sound headsets 5.1/7.1 are percieved sound directions+subwoofer. I would recommend using only 5.1 as that is how audio of Xbox 360 games are
designed to use.

The RCA will give you pro-logic surround, which means the rear channels are mono instead of left/right.

Depends on your surround sound system. We need more information on your system. For surround sound, chances are through a Digital Audio (SPDIF) cable if you surround sound system has an input for it.

I have a Denton AVR 4306 and the best audio has been with DTS Surround and Surround Sound Beta enabled, no audio issues at all. I seem to remember 5.1 uncompressed not sounding very good,

I don't. I am piping the sound out to my surround sound using optical audio.
