But Atmos is a receiver level technology?

How does a speaker "have Atmos"?

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (4 children)

It has to have upward drives to really have Atmos. It needs the ability to bounce it off other surfaces for it to really be Atmos.

Wouldn't that mean you have a 5.1.2 setup, a valid Atmos configuration?

The rear ones don't have to have any upfiring capabilities.

That's the same configuration I have, with a Denon amp doing the atmos processing. I had some rear upfiring speakers also but I ditched them because my ceiling is too high for the heights to work anyway D=. Even without the heights though you get SIGNIFICANTLY improved positional audio. Things like panning from front to rear are seamless, especially with timbre matched speakers.

I mounted some speakers in the ceiling (I think they're ceiling mid rather than ceiling front or ceiling rear) and whilst there's not that many things that really take advantage of them, some stuff is fantastic.

The voices in Max's head in Fury Road are great and the sounds of below decks in Master and Commander stood out too.

I'd imagine that makes plane flyovers amazing. It's a shame the UHD release of U-571 didn't get any object-based audio, I bet the depth charge scenes would have been really cool.
