Dolby Atmos sound

The guy on the phone from Sky customer service before I ordered it, told me that the Glass TV has amazing Atmos sound through 6 speakers. To be honest, I cant hear any improvement in the sound. It just sounds a bit more bass in the speaker but nothing amazing about it. Do I have to do anything to activate it??

Hi @Hobbayne64 

 

Do you pay for the UHD & Dolby Atmos pack? Content with atmos is marked as such with the atmos logo.

Never believe a sales pitch.

Yes, Sky Glass has six speakers, yes it can decode Dolby Atmos soundtracks but the placement of those speakers around the frame of the TV do not really allow for a proper room-filling audio experience. It's better than many smart TV's but is no match for a proper Atmos system with separate surround speakers.
