Dolby Atmos 3.1.2

Another great cinema experience with a total of 6-channels. The sound bar features 3-channels with 2 up-firing speakers. Like the 5.1.4, the system features two rear surround speakers and a wireless subwoofer. However, the rear surround speakers in this set to not include up-firing speakers.

Dolby Atmos 5.1.2
