Dolby’s groundbreaking Atmos surround sound format is coming to Blu-ray and home theater later this year. Will the home version really be as good as what we hear in cinemas, or will it be watered down for mass market CE consumption? To answer that question, Dolby invited myself and some other home theater journalists to its New York headquarters to listen for ourselves. First off, I can confirm that home Atmos works and it sounds pretty great. The cookie settings on this website are set to 'allow cookies' to give you the best browsing experience possible.

An Audiophiles Dream - Reference Sound. The Dolby reps showed us four Atmos trailers and one movie clip. At least two of the trailers (called ‘Amaze’ and ‘Unfold’) you may have seen if you’ve been to an Atmos theater. For reference, here are the web-friendly versions reduced to underwhelming YouTube quality audio: The third was called ‘Leaf’, featuring animation by Pixar with sound design by the great Gary Rydstrom. The last trailer was a Red Bull Media ad involving a Formula 1 race car. In most cases using a No-CD or Fixed EXE will solve this problem!

We were instructed to be very clear that Paramount provided the ‘Star Trek’ clip for testing and demo purposes only, and this should not be taken as confirmation that ‘Star Trek into Darkness’ will be released on Blu-ray with an Atmos soundtrack. Dolby and its studio partners are not ready to announce specific Blu-ray titles yet. We watched all of these presentations twice, once in the office’s main screening room that played the Atmos cinema mixes, and then again later in a smaller home theater demo room where we heard the home versions played back through (upcoming) consumer speakers. I’ll be honest; I actually found the cinema screening room a little underwhelming. The sound quality at Dolby’s San Francisco office is much better than the New York office.

Although directionality from multiple overhead speakers was good, the audio sounded very bright and flat. This was not a great showcase for Atmos. I’ve heard Atmos sound better than this. In fact, if anything, the home theater demo had superior sound quality. Some of that may have been due to room characteristics. The home theater room was much smaller than the cinema room, with speakers closer to the listening position, and the Atmos track was rendered for near-field viewing. The room didn’t have nearly as many speakers, and the bass wasn’t quite as powerful, but overall fidelity was superior. The home theater room was set up in a 7.1.4 configuration. That’s seven speakers on stands at ear level, one subwoofer, and four overhead speakers on the ceiling. The sense of immersiveness and directionality from all the clips we viewed was terrific, with plenty of discrete sounds moving around above our heads. Next we heard a couple of audio-only demos: a helicopter circling the room and a rainstorm. We listened to these in three variations. First was a standard 7.1 down-render with no Atmos. Next was Atmos utilizing all the speakers in the room (including overheads). Finally was Atmos with the overhead speakers turned off, but Atmos modules on four of the ground speakers firing upwards to bounce sounds off the ceiling. That last one is for people who want Atmos at home but can’t mount speakers above their heads. Obviously, both versions of Atmos were superior to the basic 7.1, which restricted the helicopter and rain sounds to ground level with a big gaping hole in the soundstage above the listening position. The Atmos mixes were much more convincing and realistic. However, I think this was a little unfair. Most people who install 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound already place their side and rear surround speakers either on the ceiling or high on the walls, not on stands at ear level. I would have liked a comparison to a 9.1 or 11.1 configuration utilizing front height speakers, high surrounds (no ground level), and ProLogic IIz without Atmos (or to DTS Neo:X, but I certainly didn’t expect Dolby to demonstrate a competitor’s product). Regardless, the Atmos demos were very impressive. I felt that the version using discrete ceiling speakers sounded best, but the upward-firing ground speakers were no slouch either and were a pretty convincing substitute. Depending on your own room characteristics (super-tall cathedral ceilings may pose a significant challenge), most viewers in average-sized rooms should find that option quite satisfying.
