Dolby Atmos-enabled AV receivers

Dolby Atmos

— a high-quality multi-channel audio decoder, the first solution that uses the separation of surround sound not by channels, but by separate audio objects (sound sources — voice, steps, motor sound, etc.). In other words, in Dolby Atmos, the sound engineer does not prescribe a specific distribution of sound across channels, but only indicates where (for the listener) this or that sound source should be — and the AV receiver directly determines during playback how to distribute the sound over specific available channels. This makes such a sound universal and allows you to adjust it to different acoustic configurations. On the whole, Dolby Atmos works well both with advanced multi-channel systems (including ceiling speakers) and with relatively modest sets. At the same time, support for this decoder can significantly affect the cost of the device.
