Dolby Atmos is a new and improved surround sound system. It’s higher quality and much more immersive than traditional surround sound, which means people enjoy a deeper audio experience when they use it.
The idea behind this is that the higher and lower tones of the music operate as spatial sound, giving the listener the impression that the sound is coming from everywhere – not just from left or right.
