Así es.
Ya es el momento para escuchar mucho mejor el cine (y de paso la TV, un CD o su música en general) gracias a que ya vienen los equipos con Atmos para las versiones caseras.

Dolby Atmos is finally coming to home theatres with Pioneer, Marantz, Integra, Onkyo and Denon all announcing the release of Dolby Atmos-enabled home theatre systems.
Brett Crockett, Director of Sound Research at Dolby announced yesterday via a blog post, the imminent release of a slew of Atmos-enabled home theatre systems, saying:
“Our goal was to make home theater sound better than ever, while giving audio enthusiasts flexible choices in how they set up their system. I’m proud to say that after a lot of dreaming, experimentation, and innovation, we’ve succeeded in creating an incredible Dolby Atmos experience for the home that will be available to any entertainment fan.”
Explaining how the systems will work, Crockett went on to say: “If you’re willing and able to install speakers in your ceiling, there will be great options. If that’s not possible for you—and for many people, it isn’t—our partners will offer new Dolby Atmos-enabled speakers that produce full, detailed overhead sound from speakers located where your conventional speakers are now. If you already have speakers that you love, you can choose an add-on, Dolby Atmos-enabled speaker module that complements your existing speakers. (In fact, many people will place the modules right on top of their current speakers.)”
Which is great news for those not interested in updating their entire home theatre systems. In addition, Blu-ray players that already fully conform to Blu-ray specification will support Atmos content, so you won’t need to replace your player either.
Although 3D didn’t become the success filmmakers and television manufacturers hoped it would be, the same cannot be said for sound. Historically, the latest audio tech is quickly adopted by audiophiles and then later once prices have reduced, it is picked up by the general population (e.g walkmans, iPods, user defined EQ pre-sets, surround sound).
We imagine most new content will include an Atmos track and we’re even predicting Dolby Atmos it will become a regular (if not expected) feature in new productions, much the way 5.1 is currently. Dolby are already hard at work producing Atmos soundtracks with studios and production houses and a range of TV shows & films will soon be released on Blu-Ray, with Atmos soundtracks included in their audio options. Online video-streaming content will begin broadcasting from the third quarter of this year with more content slated for 2015.

7.1.4 Dolby Atmos config
Atmos is capable of producing 128 channels of sound routed to 64 speakers, however, home theatre systems will largely contain 9 channels of Dolby Atmos, with a configuration of 5.1.4 (the simplest layout). This configuration contains the 5 regular sound channels (front, center, left & right) with a subwoofer and either two height channels (which bounce sound off the ceiling) or ceiling-mounted speakers.
High-end models will contain up to 11 channels of sound with a 7.1.2 configuration of front, center, right & left speakers, a subwoofer, two side speakers (left & right), two rear (left & right) and two ceiling-mounted speakers. There’s even a 7.1.4 configuration, with four speakers mounted on the ceiling.
