Dolby suggests listening with headphones if intending to stream....nooooo.
I have signed up for the free trial. I have a Marantz SR 8012 which uses HEOS for Internet and streaming services. When I search for The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band using Amazon as the streaming service inside of the HEOS app on my iPad, I can not find the album listed with the “3D” badge, only the “Ultra HD“ badge. I can stream the album as 96 kHz/24 bit Flac but it is in Stereo.You beat me to the punch--er, the porter--@beerking. So it's Atmos for Headphones, not full-on Atmos? Anyone here with Amazon HD who can confirm?

If I just open the Amazon Music app on my iPad, I can search for and find The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album listed with both the Ultra HD and the 3D badges but I can only use AirPlay to send it to my receiver and it will only play back at 24 bit 48kHz stereo.
I don’t recall seeing the entire album listed with the 3D badge when I searched for the album when I first started testing for streaming Amazon music in Atmos earlier so it may be a new edition.
I am new to this Denon/Marantz HEOS setup so I may well be doing something wrong....
I still have hopes that I’ll be able to stream Amazon Atmos music to my receiver someday soon...
I suspect it is a lossy codec like DD.If there is the capability to stream in Atmos, then count me in.

I personally do not believe there is and neither will it be available for the foreseeable future.
Okay...I knew there was film streaming in Atmos just not read any feedback on it's effect. It's more the music streamed in Atmos that interests and concerns me. If the powers that be are really able to stream Atmos music that can be played via a 7.1.4 system then that will be a game changer. But thanks for the links.

What is encouraging is, they may have Atmos tracks, in the genuine sense, already mixed...maybe that's what Capitol Records have been up to with a view to this being the new market....hummm?
Need someone in the industry to shed a light or two methinks.
