Sonos Arc Owners: What has been your best Atmos audio experiences from your Sonos Arc?

Many Sonos Arc owners are new to Dolby Atmos and are experiencing this immersive audio in their homes for the first time. Going by your personal experience, which Dolby Atmos films or TV shows have sounded the best through your Sonos Arc? It can be from a Blu-ray, UHD 4K Blu-ray, or a streaming app.

A few that I have read about, but haven’t personally experienced yet (my Arc is on backorder) are:

  • Blade Runner 2049 (Blu-ray & UHD 4K)
  • Gravity (Diamond Luxe Edition Blu-ray)
  • Mad Max: Fury Road (Blu-ray, UHD 4K)

What are some of your favorites?

Opening scene of a Star is Born is pretty great.  Arena concert scene -- applause coming from everywhere.

      Dolby Atmos music via Tidal is very very impressive.

      What app do you use to stream it?  Something through the TV?  You cant play it wirelessly, can you?

       

      EDIT:  Firestick works.  Very cool.

      Hi - i am accessing Tidal via the Amazon Firestick 4k. There are limited albums on Tidal, more playlists etc. Some tracks are ok, some just blow me away.

      Prince - When Doves Cry, Doors - Riders on the Storm and Marvin Gaye - what's going on, are very good but you could spend a lot of time just playing all sorts.

              I downloaded the amaze ‘lossy’ file but I can’t get it to play. It says the sound is unsupported. I have the Sonos Arc and brand new Samsung 55” QLED … any ideas? I’ve not yet got to experience Atmos as don’t have a 4K Blu-ray player or Netflix premium. But have Disney Plus and also can’t get Atmos on that. Any help appreciated.
