I have an older TV that has 3 HDMI ports. Unfortunately, only 1 has both audio and video capabilities (ARC). In order to listen to a variety of 7.1 options using my home theater system with my Roku stick and DVD player, I bought this audio cable and solved the problem. Now my blu ray player uses the HDMI cable and my Roku brings in digital audio with this optical cable. I connected this cable inside of 2 minutes. I should have tried this long ago.

My old player locked up and died with a John Wayne movie inside. Horrors! I immediately checked out inventory at Best Buy and purchased this model online. I started out the door and it was ready when I arrived. Took it home and had it hooked up in minutes, after all, it only had HDMI. It is a basic machine and does what I want with it (play movies). If I remember right, it was discounted $20, which made for an easy choice. BTW, I did get the movie out so JW can ride another day.

I relocated my desktop computer and modem router using this connector, shortening the cable substantially. I initially didn't screw on the connector sufficiently and redid it using a pliers to hold it. Now I have a firm connection.

I needed to upgrade my modem and decided to buy this combination router and modem. I couldn't be happier with the reach and speed. A desktop, two laptops, tablet, two phones, printer and a roku all connect and work seamlessly together. I'm going to relocate the incoming cable to put in a more usable location which will also shorten up the cabling coming into the house. I should be good for years.

Is there a reason why I'm missing sound when I play a movie (via Amazon Prime app)? I’m using eARC with a new 8K HDMI cable and JBL center channel speaker. Some scenes there’s sound, some scenes no sound. Sounds works full-time with TV speakers.

Check the troubleshooter in manual and online. Some surround formats do not use center channel. It took me a week to adjust my 5.1 speakers to satisfaction.

I currently have the Denon AVR-S540BT. Would this Sony AVR be considered a downgrade or an upgrade from my current AVR?

Funny you asked. This is my replacement for that model. It is a tad better. The Denon is easier to set up, I think the Sony sounds better. The Sony is 7.2, but I use as 5.1. The Denon lost few surround sounds after warranty expired.

Built for more than your viewing pleasure, the T Series hits the mark on great-sounding audio for all the music that fills your life. Don't fret, we'll pat ourselves on the back for you.
 

I have purchased Pioneer - Elite 7.2-Ch. Bluetooth Capable with Dolby Atmos 4K Ultra HD HDR Compatible A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black. Also, I already left and right pioneer speakers. Does the speaker compatible with my pioneer receiver?

A better question is whether this would fit with your speakers. The signal going to the speakers is electronic and similar spec'd receivers will sound the same through the same speakers. I have no experience with your setup, but most receivers are flexible and adjustable enough to fit right in. I have 3 different brands of speakers and I have my preferred sound dialed in.

Can the system be set up to play well with just two speakers? I only wanted to hook up my two Klipsch floorstanding speakers. There's barely any bass coming out. I tried adjusting the tone with bass +6 dB and there wasn't much difference.

You can set your speaker to "large" for speakers capable of handling the bass frequencies. Default is "small." You can also change the crossover frequency. I would recommend downloading the pdf manual for the receiver, as it contains a lot if information on the myriad of options the receiver has.
