Hello fellow akers,
I have a theory that I'm curious about it being correct, I just upgraded to the 4k realm of video consumption by purchasing a LG Nano cell series 85 4k TV. I use my HT system for 2 channel listening for music, and 5.1 for theatre.
In my chain is a Yamaha RXV3800(as a preamp), An OPPO BDP-103D connected to the multi ch inputs of the yamaha(for my digital music catalog through tidal and qobuz utilizing the app mconnect+ on my smart phone through upnp connection) as well as 1080p blu ray video playback.
And an Acurus A125x5 multi ch amplifier for powering my center, front and surround channels. I also use my HT set up for video games, which brings my xbox one and ps4 pro into the chain, connected to the yamahas hdmi ports as opposed the to the oppo, because there is quite the latency between the input of the consoles and the oppo presenting the video signal to the tv. But since the oppo does not do 4k natively, and only upscales 1080p to 4k at 24hz, the only option I have for 4k consumption specifically movies through blu ray, is my ps4 pro connected directly to the tv. But I cannot utilize the nice dac that my oppo has, because it cannot operate as a standalone dac.
And my yamaha rxv3800 does not handle 4k signals.
But I was curious if I were to hook a hdmi splitter (not a switch) to the hdmi input coming from the ps4 pro, to the oppo as well as the new TV, could I watch my 4k content and utilize the dac from the oppo and send the audio to the multi ch inputs to the yamaha. So i don't have to buy a new pre amp or dac? Sorry I know thats a lot of info to deal with, but any input from you guys would be amazing. Hoping that I can make this work without having to buy all new equipment pretty much.
