Did I miss a Sonos-statement on Atmos?

I am currently in contact with various Hifi-installers, as I am trying to decide on the right contractor and setup for a new house we are building. 
 

One firm I spoke with this week sounded fairly knowledgeable and we had a good chat on Sonos and implementation of AMPs and build-in speakers. 
 

When we talked about the well-known Sonos-limitations in terms of codes, he firmly stated and repeated that Sonos had recently committed to Dolby Atmos and other codecs. 
 

I was surprised as I thought I had been paying attention to any such statements and had not read anything but rumors  

Has Sonos made any such official statement?

    This was the latest S2 publication from Sonos, if that helps at all .…

    If so I missed it too.  Lots of speculation that ‘Sonos S2’ will allow a replacement for the Playbar, but nothing said by Sonos on this as far as I am aware.

    I have to wonder what those new devices are that showed up in the FCC database. Perhaps these installers have gotten information we haven’t? But I concur with Ken, the only data we know about for sure is what he has linked to.

    Good to know my regular sources for tech-updates still seem to do their job. 
     

    With this confirmed, I will try pushing him for more info and see what comes up.

    If they’ve gotten other information from their sources at Sonos, I think we’d all be interested!
