“So are all my favoite artists available on Atmos? And where do I find a high end 5 channel SET?“ I don’t know your favorite artists so I can speak to that. How we choose to listen, is a personal preference. You seem to be more focused on gear than music. I equally enjoy music on my two channel as well as multichannel systems. The multichannel music especially live concerts are just as immersive through my modest $2K multichannel system as my Qobuz / local files streaming through my 2-channel system which is well north of $100k. IMHO, Music recorded in Multichannel format is a different beast altogether. I wouldn’t speak of it in same breath or manner as one experience Movies through a HT receiver. |
My HT is the latest generation Anthem (minus the 8k upgrade I haven't gotten yet). I'm not at a loss for decoding equipment but I just don't really think of music and surround in the same breath. BTW, I was involved in motion picture sound equipment manufacturing, operations and installations all the way back to the days of Stop Making Sense and Purple Rain, and I have a number of immersive music DVDs and Bluray disks. I just don't really pull them out nearly as often as I stream fro Qobuz or Tidal or listen to Jazz.FM |
I have a number of immersive music DVDs and Bluray disks +1, I was in your shoes, then I ripped them to my NAS and got a Zidoo. The Zidoo puts all the concert disc covers up on the screen like a poster wall. Then I set it to output Dolby Vision (which works with any HDR compatible device). Now I'm playing them on the fly instead of digging through my stash:
