Hi All,
Longtime follower of the forum. Its great how much information is available around so it is my go to place! I have been searching through this forum to find an answer to this specific question but I can't seem to find the answer I am looking for (or maybe the way I am planning my set up is incorrect).
I have a question around using audio pass through.
I am purchasing an LGOLED65B7. I have always been a fan of AV Receivers and wired speakers so i was originally planning on purchasing a 4K receiver with a speaker set. However I have been looking into soundbars and I am thinking of scrapping the 4k reciever idea and getting the HW-K950 Soundbar instead.
However the soundbar only has 2 hdmi inputs so If i go down this route i have a question around the setup.
My plan is to connect the following directly to the tv (as it has 4 hdmi inputs which i am assuming all accept 4k inputs? Please let me know if i am wrong)
XBOX one X
Apple Tv 4k
Nvidea Shield
Wii U
Is it then possible to passthrough the audio from these sources directly to the soundbar ?So if i am watching a movie with atmos on the XBOX One X will the atmos soundtrack be passthrough to the Soundbar? Also if i am using the Netflix which is built into the tv, can the audio soundtrack of that be passed through to the soundbar?
If this isn't possible then i may have to scrap the soundbar idea and go down the av receiver route.
