Atmos DIY

[RobinKidderminster]

Looking forward to seeeing DIY efforts to make/adapt Atmos speakers. Not ordered an Atmos receiver yet but what about software? How long before sufficient bd's? I fancy mounting some upfiring speakers in corners. Who will be first to try some DIY?

Some titles have been announced, but it will be a while before we see a decent catalogue of them. Even then, many of the titles are going to be blockbuster types, and not necessarily films you'll watch on a regular basis. Maybe this time next year...

I think Transformers is the only confirmed Atmos title so far, coming soon.

I'm installing my Atmos system just before Christmas (ceiling speakers).

I think what will be more interesting to people for the time being is the upconverting of TrueHD/DTS-MA sound formats to 'seudo Atmos', and how this might enhance current 5.1/7.1 movies.

I know Gozilla is out on BD already or very soon but I think it had Dolby Atmos in some cinemas.

I don't believe the current release is Atmos. They may be waiting for DTS...

Yes, my Godzilla 3D blu ray arrived yesterday. No Atmos unfortunately, although I expected it to.
