In Reply to: Spatial Audio for Dolby Atmos is total BS! posted by GreatSound on June 12, 2021 at 09:14:35:
So, you don't think 2-ch stereo is FAKE BS? It's ALL an illusion!Dolby Atmos may offer a better version of the illusion. It's fantastic in home theater audio and if tastefully applied may produce a better illusion than traditional 2-ch stereo. Also consider the huge target audience: headphone / earbud listeners.
If you want your music as you say, "layered, out in front, with depth, and width in 3D stereo", do you think this is how live music normally sounds? How about with headphones?
It's ALL engineered FAKERY done in the studio, even 2-ch stereo. Choose your version of FAKE ;-)
