Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - booshtukka - 17-Jul-2023 Has anyone read about the impending Arvus H1-D? * HDMI to Dante / AES67 only. *Small (similar formfactor to the Apple4K) *Price well under USD3k including freight *Performance and GUI will be identical to H2-4D. *eARC / HDMI Pass-through will be supported. *Samples ready for testing around April *Aiming for the first Beta run to be completed December 2023. *Given the rate of Atmos adoption across in the entire audio market, we can see that this unit could be a great seller. *Further information to be released in coming newsletters. CODECS and SOFTWARE supported will be: DOLBY Atmos DTS-X IMAX Enhanced Auro3D MPEG-H Sony360 DIRAC Crestron Q-Sys ….plus others HARDWARE Features: HDMI 2.1 Input HDMI 2.1 pass-through Output with full eARC support DANTE / AES67 Output High quality separate DAC / Headphone Amplifier (6.5mm jack) Remote Control System Reset button Power over Ethernet (PoE) Separate power supply input It seems to me with something like this and 2 Phantom Golds + 4 Reactor Customs you can easily have a 6.6 setup, cost-effectively, and SMALL. The device even has a remote control! Thought maybe eARC can be used instead to control volume? I don't understand enough about DIRAC to get how this part works, but could this one box be enough to distribute a dolby signal to all my Phantoms?

Please have a look at this diagram from my old post/ https://devialetchat.com/Thread-Phantom-Premiere-and-Dante?pid=85786#pid85786 The H24D would replace the AV Processor and Dante AVIO Analog inputs. If your Phantoms do not have Dante built in, you will need the Ethernet to Optical converters. It is similar to the JBL SDP-55 but cheaper. https://www.jblsynthesis.com/products/electronics/SDP-55-.html RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - booshtukka - 18-Jul-2023 No I understand Dante. But I do have a weird shaped living room and DIRAC is listed as supported. So would I have to measure the room with a microphone and PC and then send the settings to it? I don’t get how that works. RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - booshtukka - 18-Jul-2023 Also I saw the H24D. But im talking about the unreleased H1-D. The problem with the JBL and and H24D is they do a ton of stuff I don’t need them to. This upcoming product appears to just have Dante outputs in a tiny box, for a third of the price. This sounds like the holy grail to me. RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - booshtukka - 18-Jul-2023 Your diagram which is seen before shows a signal going from digital > analogue > digital (Dante) - this box would keep everything in the digital realm. Sorry for the multiple replies. Want to be clear that I’m asking about the unreleased box, not existing hardware. RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - Snoopy8 - 18-Jul-2023 My apologies, I did not realise thatyou were asking about the to be released product. The H1-D seems to be a digital only box, whereas H24D has both digital and analogue outputs. Not sure how you arrived at a third of the price. According to your post, it is $3K, but the H24D is $5K according to Stereophile. Dirac will simply process the digital input and apply its filters to each output channel, no different to any Dirac device. RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - booshtukka - 18-Jul-2023 I think it's likely to be more like $2.5k, and I don't need to buy any other processors, or ADCs/DACs. Maybe I'm exaggerating. But still, a lot more reasonably affordable. I've seen where people buy separate Dirac processors - so this seems like I wouldn't need to. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but I seem to often see people buy multiple products in a chain, whereas this is just one… RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - Yondu - 04-Sep-2023 (17-Jul-2023, 13:39)booshtukka Wrote: Has anyone read about the impending Arvus H1-D? RE: Dante, Atmos and Arvus H1-D - booshtukka - 06-Sep-2023 So can I do the Dirac calibration on another device then upload the settings?

With the H2-4D, as I know there is no Dirac license so I would say no. With the next product, Matthew the CEO from Arvus told me that Dirac (I suppose Dirac Live (and not ART) will be available on H1-D |
