A fully immersive, memorable cinematic experience is incomplete without high-quality sound. Whether it’s catching all the finer details of a film’s soundscape or losing yourself in the splendour of a perfectly curated film score, distinguished sound takes a movie from marvelous to unforgettable.
And Dolby Atmos is the trace of the ultimate sound. This object-based surround sound format has revolutionised cinema sound by enabling accurate 3D audio. Where traditional surround sound only allows for sound to be placed from left to accurate, or forwards and backwards, Dolby Atmos adds height to the spatial dimensions of a sound scheme. This means individual sounds can be placed overhead as well, so it really feels like you’re factual in the middle of whatever’s happening on screen.
Soundbars that seize movie night to the next level
An LG soundbar is an excellent space-saving choice if you’re looking for high-quality sound for your home entertainment scheme. These horizontal speaker systems can be placed directly under a TV while still delivering that sought-after surround sound effect. This effect is achieved by up-firing speakers that bounce the sound off the ceiling and back to the listener, creating the illusion of sound height.
LG offers a variety of award-winning audio options, with the LG S95QR being the brand’s flagship soundbar from its 2023 line-up. It boasts 9.1.5 channel audio and comes complete with a dedicated subwoofer and two six-channel wireless rear speakers. It features the world’s first triple up-firing channels, crafted specifically for Dolby Atmos content. Dolby Atmos recognises up to 118 unique sound objects and places them individually across the soundscape of your living room, meaning that sounds like voices, instruments, or sound effects are more isolated and distinguishable.
