I'm trying to up the audio game on my head unit. In the olden days, I used to fit high end audio in cars - nothing makes you sweat like cutting the door panels in a brand new Aston Martin! But my measure was if you could see the door panels moving if you stood behind the car without the sound inside the car getting all distorted. Bass has to sound like a cannon. I'm limited a bit as I have a rear engined car so there's a big block of metal between the boot and the cabin. This rules out big sub boxes, etc.
Has anyone used and HDMI > audio converter? I don't know how this technology works so:
1. Will it work with OAP at all?
2. Will I need to change anything on the Pi to get all the audio to go through the HMDI port?
3. Is there likely to be any benefit?
I currently have a USB sound car going into a 4 channel amp then to the front and rear speakers. The rear speakers also drive a powered sub-woofer. But the bass is still not great. The standard system in my other car (Jaguar XF) is amazing by comparison. The Sonos powered lamp from Ikea in my kitchen has a more punchy bass.
Any thoughts from people round here would probably be more useful that the audio community I think?
Cheers
Andy
