That’s funny how Dolby Atmos is in all caps. It’s a protocol and that’s it. Dolby squeezed out existing tech with a new protocol because marketing. There is nothing about this that couldn’t already be done. If it couldn’t already be done, not many people are going to hear the differences anyway.
However, if you are going to watch the movie in your professional studio or private theater, because you just just trashed all your perfectly good equipment just to have the Atmos logo, you’re set.
When I used to frequent Reddit, so many people says that DV was a lot better than HDR10. I’ve never seen a side by side comparison, so I’m none the wiser.
Not that it really matters to be because I use a PS5 with my Sony TV, neither of which support DV anyway. (Reddit would probably look down on me for using a PS5 as a 4K playback machine as well.)
End of the day, I’m still blown away by the picture quality I get with my system and the sound from my sub £100 2.1 soundbar which obviously puts the TV speakers to shame.
Absolutely don’t start writing music then. Once you do, it’ll destroy your perception of how sound bars simulate 5.1 channel audio. (Most consumer grade Atmos sound bars have a pair of speakers that point up from the center channel to reflect sound off your ceiling. I would be able to hear that “trick”, unfortunately.)
My “studio” is super simple and I only use 2.1 audio but with proper monitor speakers that have a mostly “flat” sound. While sound bars are great for limited space, I’ll never use one again. For music and most movies, 2.1 is all you need. Rear channels are nice and everything, but kinda pointless in a living room. (If people want a real theater experience at home, good luck buying a proper +30 channel system.)
When it comes time for you to invest in new headphones, buy some ATH-M50x’s. Once you hear what relatively flat sound is like, you’ll probably end up throwing every other speaker you own in the trash.
There’s no surround sound feature from our soundbar at all, it’s just 2.1 audio coming from under the TV, if that makes sense.
