It depends on what you consider music. If it is pop songs, it won’t work. If it is music where the composer had spatial thinking and treated space as one of the musical parameters it can be excellent. With films it doesn’t work that well. Already you have an ancor point in front of you, where you place your attention. This means by default that “around you” you’ll have only of secondary importance elements (sfx, etc). Plus you are watching something which by default reduces the music experience.

Quad had no application to the film industry though. This is more like scalable surround and there are many people who have surround systems in their house. So it can be useful for professionals doing film work.

These speakers are really really good. But of course there are lots of other good brands that supply similar systems. But for many I believe this is a good enough system which also is easy to install and quite cheap compared to other systems..

now ppl think you have to sit inside the orchestra because it makes the music so much better. /s
seriously, this works for games and movies uh oh watch out there is someone behind you ….
it makes absolutely no sense to have the Tamborine dance around you. šŸ˜‰

10th grade IIRC my friend had a quad setup I think it was Welcome Back… or Brain Salad Surgery? Sound awesome lol, but we were pretty high.

It was amusing to hear, but people emphatically did NOT invest in 4-channel sound, so the market came & went pretty quickly. Too bad, as I once heard “Switched-On Bach” in quad and it was a bit of a mixing gimmick, but also a mind blower.

I’d be a lot more interested if Atmos had a greater foothold in people’s homes. Pods aren’t the best way to hear everything it offers. Give it a while and it’ll probably start appearing as add-on speakers for your smart TV, which already spies on you when you pee.

Thats the take you have after reading this and watching the video? The i does not bother me at all, or most people as the series sells really well, and the MTM’s are a great way to get an Atmos room and make money mixing.

I used to think that, but man the new mixes coming out on Atmos sound incredible. Even with Apples weird way of doing it on their newer airpods its some of the best portable music I’ve heard to date yet. I have a feeling consumers will listen to it more that way than on a multi speaker setup like this though. Just not very likely

Time for IK to stop with this.
