Reading reviews of various Dolby Atmos soundbars, and one of the reviewers mentioned that they went on Tidal and played some of their Dolby Atmos playlists that were up there and that it sounded incredible. Thinking they may possibly have Gigaton up there in this format on Friday, if anyone has one of these setups at home.

I really expected something more interesting than this. Slow pans of nature for the entire hour.

dude, you're supposed to watch it ON WEED

so much better than just listening to the album in actual nature

I found a Dolby Atmos setting on my phone lol

This thing's on Apple TV for a week starting today.

so do you need special speakers for this, or is it a different mix, or both? How hard should I be trying to find this?

Yes, you would need a proper home stereo setup to make it worth it.

Hopefully a torrent of this appears.

At home now with a stereo and a 4k tv. Don’t have Dolby Atmos or surround speakers though.

The images/video look a lot more vivid than via youtube. Music still sounds like Gigaton to me, as if I put on a cd or via apple music/tidal.

Im far from an expert on these things but that probably makes sense that it sounds like the CD version if you are only running stereo speakers, right?

Id be curious to hear from anyone that has a proper set up with Dolby Atmos receiver. My home theatre receiver is almost 20 years old and only supports DD 5.1.

Just a heads up that there's a popular video game head set, the Turtle Beach Stealth 700, that can be found for between $90-$150. It offers a "simulated 7.1" experience. This could be the most affordable way to check out the Apple stream, but I don't have any experience with this headset myself.

What percentage of the population has this at home?

I'm going to say...

*puts on sunglasses*

1%.

My son’s been watching the you tube videos on a cycle all week, so it’s nice to have them packaged together.

It’s amazing that this album came out of a process so filled with procrastination. It sounds on record like they couldn’t breathe, for all the ideas they were having.

Who would even WANT a setup like that. I can’t imagine having to walk around all of those speakers — likely with the lights out — just to go piss.

Imagine falling asleep on that couch, and trying to get up to stumble to bed.

I'd love a setup like that if I could afford to have a room dedicated solely to music listening. But if I'm also watching TV, playing games, passing through on my way from the kitchen to the bedroom...No way.

I just see a gigaton of headaches with that scenario.

one of these days when im rich im absolutely having a music/theater room with everything. yes.

Listening to Gigaton costs a gigaton

PHATJ on his way to Best Buy right now.
