Arry74 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Don't know how to explain this but here goes. I have an Anthem 720 together with 7.1 speakers plus a Panasonic TV plus just purchased an Apple 4K TV device. Netflix via the TV and the Anthem the sound is awesome, and when I press the mode button it says it is playing in surround sound. Netflix via the Apple 4K TV it says Dolby Atmos but the sound is no where as good. It stutters and sounds awful and you have to turn the volume up so much to get anywhere close to the same via Netflix on my TV. Any ideas what this could be?

Quark Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Is the Apple TV 4K connected to the Anthem (not direct to the TV)? Try a different HDMI cable between the Apple and the Anthem, or use the Apple's cable test function. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple cable text says is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you switching the Apple off at the wall to reboot it (i.e. not just powering it down to standby)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
