Sonos Beam 2 not being detected as Dobly Atmos on Epson TW6250 Projector

Hello,

So I just got the Sonos Beam 2 and want to use it to it’s full capacity, meaning Dolby Atmos.

I own an Epson TW6250 projector and I use an Amazon Fire Stick Max 4k to have access to Netflix, Hbo Max, etc.

The issue is that in Netflix I can’t get At

mos (I’ve changed the settings to HIGH) and when I check the Fire Stick settings, it’s set on Auto (in order to get the best sound) but Atmos is not recognised.

The HDMI cable is gold plated, so the highest 4k hdmi cable out there, I paid around 100 euros for it.

Can you help me fix this issue? I want to be able to enjoy Atmos!

Thanks!
C

PS: I attached an image to showcase what I mean by Detected Audio Capabilities Dolby Atmos = No.

With ARCANA you would connect Fire Stick to ARCANA’s input, route the HDMI-eARC output to BEAM, and the HDMI output to the projector.

Could the Fire Stick not send out DD+ with compressed Atmos?

The firestick is 4k max.. but the HDMI goes from the projector to the sound bar, not the stick.

Yes, Dolby Atmos compressed can be carried across Dolby Digital Plus.
