“Exact same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago. I ordered two SVS pb2000 pros. They shipped FedEx and when they finally arrived, the boxes were in rough shape - FedEx attempted to put them back together again with packing tape. When I opened the boxes I was gutted to see that both subs were damaged. I ordered these through Audio Advice and the good news is they took care of it. I returned the damaged ones and they shipped another set to me. I completely agree with you, if I can avoid FedEx, I absolutely will from now on.”

“AppleTV plex does not support dolby atmos in any form. Plex app is super jank, only does the very basics. Its built on very pld codebase. You need Infuse. I can probably link you files that will trigger and work proper if you like?”
