Bought this because it afforded me the options I needed. This is daisy chained to my 7.2 receiver. Am now able to have 5.2.4 setup for the new audio formats...Atmos and DTSX. Works great for what I’m asking it to do.

This is okay if you like the series. I'm not a fan. I bought it because it had Dolby Vision. For that purpose only I had to buy it. Well worth it for the feature of HDR Dolby Vision.

This is a good machine if you get one that doesn't make more noise spinning the disk than the audio from the movie. Took me three units to finally get one that's silent. I believe it comes from the second production release. One other issue is that LG claims it will do Dolby Vision, but they still haven't released the firmware update to do this. You would think if they want to be the leaders in DV, they'd try to get the first player out there at a reasonable price to play it.

What is a 2-way speaker? What is a passive speaker?

Two way are high and mid range.
Passive means that they need power supplied to them.

What kind of hole(s) do these have in the back? I want to know if they work with my existing wall mounts.

Hard to answer not knowing what type of wall mounts you have. Since these are bookshelve speakers, they have no holes. I drilled two holes through the plastic back which doesn’t penitrate the speaker and then bolted them to my mounting brackets.
Hope that helps

Hello, Anyone know when to expect the free movie code from Sony and is there list to pick from? Thanks.

Follow the instructions in the box. You have to go on Sony's web address, register, setup an account and you'll get your code. Then then are headed to a website that has the list of movies you pick from.
I followed the instructions and selected my two movies and received them within two weeks. Had no problems.

I want to know why when i play a Dolby Atmos disc the player doesnt say Dolby Atmos it says True HD 7.1 why is that im using a dolby atmos receiver

There a setting in the player under audio that is set to on by default. The manual tells you about it. Turn that setting to Off and when you play Atmos or DTSX your receiver will play that format.
I had to google this problem to find this answer. No one can explain why Sony defaults this setting On.

I have a 4k amplifier (Yamaha RX-V381) and according to the setup directions for the Sony, the hdmi out on the amp goes to the hdmi in on the tv. Problem is the receiver has one hdmi out and that's the ARC that is going to my tv's ARC in. Please help!

There are two hdmi outs on the player.
One goes to the tv and the second goes to the amp.
If you take the first out on the player and hook it directly to the amp, the the amp will send the video to the tv and audio to its speakers.
