Dolby Atmos
This function can be used after performing a software update.
This AV receiver supports the latest Dolby Atmos surround sound system. Dolby Atmos is a new technology in
which, through real time calculation of audio data and meta data (position and time information) included in the
audio signal, a surround sound space is achieved irrespective of the speaker layout and number of speakers.
In order to enjoy Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos-compatible content is required. Dolby Atmos content on Dolby
Atmos-compatible Blu-ray Discs can be played back on most conventional Blu-ray players by sending the Dolby
Atmos bitstream to the AVR.
