“I have an older Samsung that does not support ARC and/or eARC. My connection, therefore, seems limited to optical. Can I take advantage of Dolby Atmos & DTS:X connecting by optical only?”

• No. The bandwidth constraints don’t allow it to. You’ll need hdmi with arc or earc.

• Optical cord will not support either of those two formats. You need HDMI to get Atmos or DTS:X
