3D Cinematic Sound

Immerse yourself in a world where sound moves around you. Enabled by spatial audio technology, you experience a three-dimensional soundscape that transforms your entertainment experiences.

 

Dolby Atmos

 

This popular spatial audio format places sounds in specific locations in a three-dimensional space. This gives you the impression that sound moves around you - like a bullet in your favourite Netflix thriller whizzing right past your shoulder. 

 

DTS:X

 

This format also uses object-based audio to create immersive surround sound that moves around you. With DTS:X technology rain sounds like it is falling from ceiling to floor rather than just being heard above. Experience it through IMAX Enhanced on Disney+.

 

Sony 360 Reality Audio

 

Surrounds you in captivating sound, bringing audio to life like never before. Experience music as the artist intended and feel as if you're at a live concert.

 

MPEG-H

 

Delivers immersive audio experiences through its support for spatial sound, enabling listeners to perceive sound from multiple directions as if they were in the environment.

 

Up-mixing Of Mono/Stereo

 

This virtualisation technology converts audio from mono/stereo sources into multi-channel, expanding the soundstage and creating an immersive audio experience.
