This type of review may save a lot of folks on this forum about $125-150.
Ok so unscientific research shows that if it’s in Tidal and Atmos it is also on Apple Music as well. I’m finding several albums and tracks that aren’t yet listed in the searches or playlists but are Atmos.

Yes, but how does the Atmos-encoded Apple Music get played back on a Mac? With software decoding, obviously.
I will check it out when I get home and post some thoughtsIs the song All Things Must Pass in Atmos also?

(1) pti started a topic / question: How to play Atmos on:
Mac ---> multi-channel Audio interface (example Focusrite) ----> multi-channel speaker setup
(2) Casper-I said that's not going to work (today).
If you want to listen to Atmos on a proper surround speaker setup, the only way is through an AVR (today).
Which is correct ( with an Apple TV ).
(3) You said:
Or a software decoder for Atmos, which it sounds like Apple is building into macOS Monterey as part of their adoption of "spatial audio."
(4) So I'm interested in that solution, if that's true.
I don't care if it's a software solution or whatever, I want to be able to play Atmos on a desktop (Mac) without a receiver on a proper surround speaker setup, like in (1) above.
Run of the Mill sounds great, but I would concur with @César, at first listen it sounds like the 2 channel run through 7 channel stereo. Will listen again in the afternoon when I can crank it a bit.Is the song All Things Must Pass in Atmos also?

Right, so if the Atmos decoder software already exists in macOS Monterey, it stands to reason that the decoder could scale output to any number of speakers, just like the Atmos decoder in a receiver. Then, you should be able to connect an audio interface with multichannel outputs, map them in Audio MIDI Setup, and Bob's your uncle.
Coldplay‘s Everyday Life is now in Atmos.
Sunrise, the first song, only stereo.

If you have a Aple TV box, the only thing your Panasonic needs to accept is a 4K signal over HDMI. WHat Panasonic does not support is the AppleTV app, but it also does not support Disney app and some others.
I have a 2021 AplleTV 4K and no problem to watch movies from Apple TV. My Panasonic has no problems, I do have my Apple TV connected via my Denon for the Atmos, and this works like a charm. Tidal, Netflix and Disney give also Atmos and HDR. The good thing from Panaonic is they support HDR10 and Dolby Vision.

Thanks for that info. I’m more tempted to buy an Apple 4K box now. Just off the top of my head, does the box just have to be connected to the AVR ( or TV, as well ) ?
Where did you find that info that it will be implemented to output to external audio ?
The only info I can find is "Spatial Stereo" which simulates surround on stereo sources to earphones/headphones.

Well this Mr Impatient has bought one, due for collection today from a local store!!
Will give an update when it's up and running
The audio and video signals need a path from the Apple TV box to the TV in order to see video. The way I do it is Apple TV box to AVR, then AVR to TV, using HDMI. The other way to do it would be Apple TV box to TV, then TV to AVR, using HDMI ARC if your TV has an HDMI ARC connection.

This fellow Mr Impatient, will probably cave in, before your feedback ! ??
