“I have an older LG TV (2016) which has an ARC port but does not support Dolby Digital Plus codec. I plan on connecting my Xbox Series X to the soundbar and then run passthrough from soundbar to TV HDMI port, would I get Atmos that way?”

• Hi, Dolby Atmos sound can be transmitted through any HDMI cable, including HDMI 2.0. However, you also need to be sure that all devices involved, such as the TV, are capable of delivering Atmos. For equipment that can handle HDMI eARC, HDMI 2.1 cables are recommended, but HDMI 2.0 cables will work fine.^Vanessa

• If you're source connects directly to the soundbar, then yes, that is the best way to get the maximum number of codecs. Only certain codecs will be passed backwards from the TV to the sound bar, and that depends on the TV.
