"Most songs formatted in Dolby Atmos or other spatial audio sounds great on this this system. Gives a nice sound stage presence to almost all genre except rock/alternative."
"when I play my PS5, I keep the sound output on amplifier so I can enable Dolby Atmos and that is a VERY noticeable difference."
"Q symphony is amazing. ... With the first two bars, you could clearly tell the sound was coming from below the TV… q symphony fixes that completely."

"it’s essential to have the app (called smart things) that lets you customize the sound settings and speaker settings. ... A lot of those changes have a day and night difference. ... At first I was disappointed with how quiet the rear speakers were out of the box. But after playing around in the app a little bit you can get a very full spacious sound."
"I recommend using adaptive mode for all content unless you want creator intent then you'd use standard mode (which only uses source channels, ex. 2.1 would only use 2.1 channels). ... But adaptive mode is recommended for most content. ... The latter 3 modes upscale the source audio to all the speaker channels so it'll always use 9.1.2."

"I found that Q-Symphony adds a nice touch of fill-in to the front soundstage. ... Not life changing, but definitely worth it."

"Wtf! It says wireless.....I still need wires for my rear speaker?!?!?! ... It did say wireless so I figured the rear speakers were wireless too."
"Which are way too short by the fking way. ... the wires for the rear speakers were only 10feet!!! ... My living room is pretty big. It's not massive but not small either. The length would be good enough or a bathroom"
"But note the rear speakers aren't actually wireless. ... Which makes the 910 seem pretty outdated."

"Most of the time, you probably wont hear sound from the rears unless the sound was required. ... Now, its more like I get surprised if sound from the rears are very active in action movies or even the overhead sound effect from atmos."

"That is correct unfortunately. ... OP if you have a PS5 or Xbox or a Gaming PC, then definitely get the Q990D as it has 120hz pass through."
