As someone who's had the fortune of watching a few films inside Dolby's London-based screening room-which also sports a laser-based projection system for higher dynamic range-as well as taken to the decks in the Atmos-equipped Ministry of Sound, I've experienced first-hand that Atmos can sound spectacular.

#DOLBY ATMOS CEILING SPEAKERS INSTALL#
Cinemas are able to install as many as 64 speakers to move the sound not just around listeners, but above them as well. The system, which debuted alongside Pixar's Brave in cinemas back in 2012 and is now available at home on Blu-ray, is probably the most immersive surround-sound experience currently available. Which leaves the Atmos, Dolby's latest and greatest audio format, in something of a predicament. So common is this setup-nearly every all-in-one surround system on sale is 5.1-not even the lure of lossless 24-bit/96kHz audio and the added immersion of two extra surround channels has convinced the average Joe to add more speakers. Sure, we've gone from having centre and rear channels matrix-encoded into ordinary stereo tracks via Dolby Pro Logic, through to the clarity of discrete 5.1 channel mixes with Dolby Digital, but the physical speaker setup remains the same: three at the front, two at the back, and a subwoofer for bass. For nearly 30 years, the humble home surround-sound setup hasn't changed much.
