I’m clear with what each products offer however need suggestion regarding the best choice for me below mentioned setup and use-case.
Present day setup:
Currently I use PS5 connected to my monitor [Acer Nitro Xv272U V3](’
) via HDMI.
I run out a 3.5 jack from the monitor to my 5.1 system (which I sold out today hence going to buy a new system)
Wish to have:
I want to enjoy Netflix/Prime contents on PS5 connected to same monitor but with Atmos/ other Dolby capabilities.
Doubt I have:
The monitor doesn’t support ARC, it’s plain HDMI 2.0 + DP 2.1.
-
Can I plug in the HDMI from PS5 to the monitor using 1 port, via 2nd port can I run out the HDMI to the soundbar? Not sure if it breaks the ARC law or is this setup possible? - This is in case of Juke Bar 1000.
-
Can I plug in the HDMI from PS5 to the soundbar (HDMI in), then run out another HDMI using ARC to my monitor using soundbar as a passthrough? - This is in case of Juke Bar 9700.
Based on the above queries I want to decide going for one of the two. I am kinda sold towards the multiple Dolby formats 9700 offers with a manual HDMI setup instead of 1 ARC. I am asking this questions to confirm the technicalities I understood it correct or not. Price difference is 2000 INR approx between them.
Below are the key features of both the soundbars with connectivity options( I don’t care about BT version):
