You should use passthrough on your Roku Ultra 4K when you want to let your AV receiver handle the audio decoding instead of the Roku device. This is especially useful for formats like Dolby Atmos or DTS:X!

Just turn on passthrough if you have a high-end audio system that can decode advanced audio formats. Enjoy that sweet sound!

Passthrough is great if you've invested in a quality sound system. I use it with my Dolby Atmos setup, and the sound is phenomenal!

Honestly, I tried passthrough and didn't notice much difference. Maybe stick to regular settings unless you're an audiophile.
