In general, there are several ‘things’ needed.
- In order of importance, an optical port, an ARC connection, or an eARC connection. Any one of those will work.
- The ability of the TV to pass through, again in order of importance, a Dolby Digital signal, a Dolby Digital Plus signal, or a TrueHD/MAT signal. The first would be significant for the optical, the second would be for ARC, and the third would be significant for eARC. The latter two carry Atmos, in different forms.
Ken’s question is to enable him to look up the specs of the TV to confirm what it is capable of, and if it makes sense to connect to an Arc.

Rodrigjc,
If you want to check your actual TV model and post it back here, then I’m sure either I, or someone else will get back to you to perhaps confirm the TV’s potential capability.
