Surround Speaker Check

I have used the free mode a couple of times. The yearly subscription amount is quite high. I understand the developer has costs but this is not the way to finance them. Perhaps $7 for a 6 day period or a flat, one time fee world work. This is a utility app that will be used for a few minutes on setting up a new system. Pricing should reflect this.

This app lets you see how much the spatial audio moves around the sound stage. On the new AirPods 3 it is noticeable but more subtle that I thought it would be. I would have given it 5 star if it could support 7.1 and Atmos.

It’s not even clear what the purpose is. It was supposed to play an AC/DC track and will make you pay more to test individually channels? Wait for an update and don’t bother downloading

Easy to download and set up. A must have for sound checking a 5.1 speaker system setup.

Did exactly what I needed to confirm my iPad Pro was outputting surround sound over HDMI. Simple and effective!

I have an Apple TV 3 hooked up to an old receiver and 5 speaker setup, and am not getting surround sound through various movie streaming sites Airplay’d from my phone. I downloaded this app to my phone and ran the 5.1 check via AirPlay to my Apple TV and got the surround sound output I was looking for. So at least able to confirm my setup will work in principle.

This is a great straightforward app for testing surround speakers and levels. I use it to collaborate my surround speakers and levels. Would you please consider an app update to test Atmos channels.

The first 2 of the 4 Subwoofer Check tests do not exercise the subwoofer. Its icon stays gray, and I hear no audio from it. During the third and fourth tests, its icon is blue and I hear audio from it, but only the first 2 tests provide a frequency sweep, which is what was advertised and what I was seeking when I paid for it. Am I missing something?

I’m new to using AirPods Pro and the 5.1 Speaker Check was a great way to test Spatial Audio!

The app doesn’t seem to be transmitting Dolby Digital 5.1 as of tvOS 14.4 (18K802). I’ve tried the native tvOS version of this app, screen mirroring, and airplay to the AppleTV. My setup is AppleTV 4K -> Samsung OneConnect box (via HDMI) -> Sonos Amp via HDMI eARC, and I have AppleTV set to Auto Audio Format (as opposed to Change Format with DD5.1, although I have tried that too to no avail). Typically, there’s an option in the Samsung settings to pass through Dolby Digital 5.1 when it senses that signal coming from the input device, and sure enough I get Dolby 5.1 in other apps (e.g. Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max), but not with this app anymore. I know it used to work like a year ago so not sure what has changed.
