Starting a new thread as more tunes come out in this format.

NIN have remixed The Social Network in Atmos. I'm listening to it now on amazon music via Xbox and can't tell if it's Atmos or not. Sounds good but front heavy...

I am anxious to learn what music is being released in Atmos, Sam!

I have always loved multi-channel HD music mixes.

The Beatles Abbey Road.

Any info on what will play Atmos Music?

 

[Wayne_j]

your blu-ray player.

 

[TonyD]

your blu-ray player.

I could get an answer like that at Blu-ray .com or dvd talk.

 

[TonyD]

From what I can find it seems one can listen to Amazon Music Atmos on a speaker called Echo Studio?

So it’s one speaker.
How does that give me and an all around the room Atmospheric sound experience.

NIN have remixed The Social Network in Atmos.

And at the end of the post, Trent wonders about remixing The Fragile next.

 

[TonyD]

Seems that Amazon Music only offers it using their Echo speaker.

Tidal offers it through about a dozen different devices including Apple TV and Firestick 4K.

Also you need to subscribe to their premium service.

The article does say that NIN is considering putting it on disc.

I just went down this road with Amazon Music support a few weeks ago - apparently the ONLY device that supports what Amazon calls "3D Music," which could be Dolby Atmos or could be Sony's spatial audio codec, is the Amazon Echo Studio speaker. That's right - a single wi-fi speaker is the only device to give you "3D Music" from Amazon Music Unlimited HD. Not your Denon receiver using the Amazon Music app via HEOS, not the Amazon Music app on your Roku device, not the Amazon Music app on your Apple TV, or XBOX, or Android phone or iPhone. Not even the Amazon Music app over a FireStick 4K.

I told Amazon to cancel my free trial because users with home theaters that include a Dolby Atmos setup and capability should be able to access their "3D Music" and a single wi-fi speaker would not cut it even with most audiophiles, which is the market I assume Amazon Music and its HD Music service is aimed at. The FireStick 4K can't even do what Amazon refers to as UHD music - 96Khz 24-bit audio.

Someone at Amazon has their head up their butt.

 

[TonyD]

yeah I mentioned the Amazon Echo Studio device a couple posts back.

Also mentioned that a Tidal music subscription with a and full of devices including a couple Sony TVs will allow for the Atmos Music.

Tidal has a 30 day free trial if that’s worth anything to anyone.

[TonyD]

Xbox doesn’t appear on the list of supported devices that I linked to.

Sam - read my post above.

 

[Sam Posten]

Yeah as I said I tried it last night and THEIR REPS had no clue what it works on or not.

I thought I had some experience with this, having dabbled with Atmos Audio. But this seems to be a streaming-only release. And who knows how Amazon is handling it. You'd think surround formats from streaming services would finally be sorted out by the end of 2020. But still kinda a mess, it seems.
