Digital Plus (7.1 used by Windows, macOS).

True HD (7.1 channel audio and the default if an Atmos metadata is not present).

Dolby Atmos must have at least two height channels or its not 3D sound вЂ“ just вЂhorizontalвЂ™ faux surround sound.Дolby Atmos is different from other Dolby standards that are simply audio channels вЂ“ e.g. 5, 7, or 9 and the number of height channels, e.g. The Dolby Atmos soundbar chip down-mixes the 128 channels to the number of prime channels, e.g. We do not consider that 3.1.2 is adequate for real Dolby Atmos reproduction. It is the same way that tweeters donвЂ™t count as Dolby channels as they are frequency cut-over handling upper treble. 1 stands for a sub-woofer that is for frequency cut-over handling low and mid-bass.

You have to upgrade by adding a Dolby Atmos soundbar or AV receiver and speakers. Remember that few if any Dolby Atmos TVs come with a Dolby Atmos speaker system capable of 3D sound. And you know what вЂ“ 99.99% of these so-called Dolby Atmos TVs only have a decoding chip and down-mix to whatever the TV speaker system handles or pass through the signal to an external soundbar./.

So-called Dolby Atmos TVs do not add Dolby Atmos 3D surround sound to a TV.Д«ut as we start streaming content more to 4K TVs that now cost the same as 1080p TVs we are starting to realise that TV sound is CRAP.Д®nter the world of Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, DTS:X and DTS and more. Most have tiny 50mm speakers that on the 20Hz to 20kHz frequency response scale get around 1-6kHz (mid-to-upper mid) for clearer dialogue.ДЄny non-Dolby Atmos TV can benefit from a 2.1 (stereo and sub-woofer) or 3.1 (stereo, centre and sub-woofer) soundbar that uses its own digital signal processor to add a bit of volume and some bass from say 60Hz and treble to 10kHz. TVs universally have poor sound because that is all they need to deliver free-to-air TV that has PCM 1.0 (mono) or stereo 2.0 sound. Again it is marketing BS to claim it has Dolby Atmos sound when all it has is a decoder chip. Similarly, a TV with Dolby Atmos processing simply down-mixes content to the physical number of speakers вЂ“ usually 2.0 or 3.0 channels. This simply does not happen вЂ“ no two speaker system can add height! Sorry but that is Easter Bunny territory. It is ridiculous to think that a Dolby Atmos equipped smartphone with two mismatched speakers (earpiece and down-firing) can produce an expansive sound stage. Something with Dolby Atmos does not have to do anything more than decode the Dolby Atmos metadata stream and allocate it to the physical speakers it has. But I can get Dolby Atmos on a smartphone вЂ“ even a toaster!Дolby Atmos has become the gold standard in 3D sound and it has expanded its reach from movies and music to smartphones, gaming and even appliances вЂ“ yes you can get a toaster with Dolby Atmos.Д«ut it has become one of the most misused and abused marketing terms. Creators have a total of 128 channels routed to up to 64 speakers. Technically it expands on existing surround sound systems by adding вЂheightвЂ™ channels, allowing sounds to become 3D objects. So, if a plane flies overhead you hear it tracking its course вЂup thereвЂ™ while other sounds on different вЂplanesвЂ™ still occur.

This allows movie makers to capture sound movement as it goes at the speed of sound from microphone to microphone (phasing sound). Think of Dolby Atmos as 128 microphones spread around, up, over and back from a movie sound stage. This guide is about Dolby Atmos TVs and soundbars вЂ“ we will add dedicated Dolby Atmos AV receivers later. Audiophiles can stop reading the Dummies guide to Dolby Atmos and DTS now. Chances are that it will be nothing more than a stereo device. So we developed the вЂDummies Guide to Dolby Atmos and DTSвЂ™ to demystify and clarify just what you are getting when you buy a Dolby Atmos TV or a soundbar expecting that it will magically have Dolby Atmos 3D sound. Why a Dummies guide to Dolby Atmos and DTS? Because 99% of the reviews we read get it wrong and 100% of users are equally confused by the terminology.
