Do NOT Blow Your Entire Budget on Two Channel Audio

Atmos has more in common with Laser disc and MQA, doomed to fail in the audio world. 

Endorsed by fanatical early adopters.

Shouting from the mountain top but no one is listening. 5.1 has given way to a sound bar. Atamos is to cumbersome for most. 

Swing and a miss. 

@kota1 Nope and I never will. I do not own a TV and honestly find your posts quite boring, same old same old, yadda, yadda, yadda.  Try reading a book some time or if you are that lazy listen to one, I am sure they will be on Atmos soon. LOL!

Have you heard atmos capable soundbars yet? They are an upgrade over the traditional one. If I lived in a condo and was on the fence about soundbars I would snap up this atmos capable system by sony for around $1K in a nanosecond:

Only problem is it is the majority are children streaming on their iphone. Not people buying stereo or this fad you are peddling. 

Here is the growth of streaming, I rest my "premise":

Such a condescending post. These kids that live on their phones could care less about your "Spatial Audio"  they care about conveniences and portability. They also simply do not have the space for such an obtrusive system. I would never. 

Atmos will go they way of Quadraphonic and 5.1. 

Any real audiophile is not using Bluetoot. Could care less about backwards compatibility. Yep you are smiling just like those Laserdisc adapters back in the 80's and 90s.   

 Lossless doesn’t work on bluetooth or wireless streaming. AAPL spatial audio does and works with all of their products. Look at all these devices that are backward compatible.

Really need an ignore feature like WBF has.

All I am going to say is I will not even give Atmos a sniff due to the resident spokesman's overzealous wagon peddling here.  This is truly a modern example of a snake oil salesmen. If Dolby Labs is paying him it is not in gear, must be beer. 

@invalid like Quadraphonic sound LOL. 

 +1 Mr Facten. 

Look this Kota person is not here to spread knowledge, share insights, or to convert the masses to this Atmos format. His entire agenda now is just to be an obnoxious little peckerwood, like an Alabama fan. The best thing to do is ignore this little peckerwood, he is envious and will always be a lo-fi, mass market kind of guy. A picture speaks a thousand words. He should grab a few of these other like minded folks and start their own forum. Total street preachers. 

And they said the same about the LP: Cut and paste yes but these are the industry facts.

CD sales in the US for 2021 increased for the first time in almost two decades, according to data published by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Shipments rose from 31.6 million in 2020 to 46.6 million in 2021, and revenue from the format rose from $483.2 million to $584.2 million. The RIAA’s numbers corroborate a similar report from MRC Data published earlier this year.

Although CD sales are still far from their 2000 peak — when almost a billion CD albums were shipped in the US — Axios notes that the increase is another key element of the resurgence in physical music. Vinyl sales have been steadily increasing for over a decade-and-a-half now, and hit 39.7 million units in the US in 2021, bringing in $1 billion in revenue.

Global sales of vinyl, CDs and other physical formats increased 4% in 2022, accounting for $4.6 billion of the $26.2 billion worldwide music market, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry’s Global Music Report 2023.Mar 18, 2023
