Enjoying Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X™
Playing back Dolby Atmos or DTS:X content creates realistic sound that comes from
every direction, including overhead. To receive the full effect of Dolby Atmos or DTS:X
content, we recommend a speaker system with presence speakers.
Note
For details on the speaker system with the presence speakers, see the following:
▪ "Using 7.1/5.1.2-channel system" (p.21)
▪ "Using 5.1.2-channel system" (p.22)
