Hi all,
I have a quick question which I hope will allow me to make the decision to either keep or sell my DIVA.
So I've owned a HD Fury DIVA for a couple of years now and briefly had it in my system a while back but took it out as I found it a little temperamental for my liking.
It would occasionally just freeze which required the mains adapter removing which annoyed the wife no end so it had to go.
I used to have a very very complicated set up which required the use of the DIVA but now, I have simplified things dramatically and only now use the following:
LG 55" OLED (2022)
Freesat PVR
PS4 Pro
Nvidia Shield
Nintendo Switch (Occasional use)
Intel NUC (Rare HDMI use only to see the intel config)
Also, for audio, I use a pair of Genelec 8341AWM active SAM monitors with the Intel NUC being the ROON core (USB audio).
I also use a pair of Arendal Sealed subwoofers so it's a 2.1 system but not for LFE as I don't have a processor so rely on the tv to downmix the audio to LPCM.
I use a simple optical cable from the LG tv to an RME ADI2 PRO FS R be which handles all video audio.
I have a Harmony Hub with remote to deal with all input switching etc etc.
Now I've heard that the processor that handles audio output in the LG tv is god awful and I would benefit greatly from better audio processing to my RME DAC but is that true? Would I even hear a difference by using the processing in the DIVA?
Does the DIVA still, after all these year become unreliable or have they patched all that up yet??
What do you guys think? Keep or sell................
