![]() IMAX theatrical soundtracks have 12 channels: typical 7.1.4 plus an Upper Centre speaker at the top of the (tall) IMAX screen. IMAX Enhanced soundtracks differ from most DTS:X soundtracks in two ways: they contain an audio object and they are pre bass managed. IMAX audio is very different and you need a significant speaker configuration to appreciate it, the audio from IMAX is a cry down version of what you hear at an IMAX cinema, only cut down as an IMAX cinema has a huge number of speakers to deliver the extra sound channels and deeper base, Im running a 7.2.4 (11.2processing) to try and get as close as possible. Denon produces a number of AVRs that are IMAX capable, along with others such as Marantz and Onkyo, you unfortunately cannot derive full IMAX enhanced from eArc, TVs or the likes of Disney+, Netflix etc, all of whom offer a part only presentation of the IMAX medium. This is why streaming isn’t the right way to go as you only get a compromised experience, for true IMAX you have to have an IMAX capable AVR not a streaming set top box or tv. This only occurs when you play an IMAX disc as it triggers extra settings. I use a Denon 4500h AVR, in my Denon menu, and using a source disc playing a true IMAX enhanced movie which is played on my Panasonic 820 I leverage the AVR which has full IMAX capability. ![]() Do you guys think it has anything to do with Disney+ adding IMAX Enhanced content to their Marvel movies tomorrow?ĭisney is a stream that only offers IMAX in part, true IMAX enhanced includes a load of audio changes too. Does anyone know what firmware# 6420-0151-8186-1000 adds to the Denon receivers? I got the update this morning. ![]()
