Netflix Premium users can now experience immersive cinematic audio on selected titles thanks to Sennheiser’s AMBEO 2-Channel Spatial Audio technology

Netflix announces a series of brand-new features for members on its Premium plan, including Netflix spatial audio. Starting today, Netflix Premium plan members using a stereo system will experience immersive cinematic audio on more than 700 top titles – all on their existing hardware. Netflix spatial audio is powered by Sennheiser’s AMBEO 2-Channel Spatial Audio technology.

Developed in partnership with Netflix, this Sennheiser technology delivers an unrivalled immersive experience over stereo speakers while fully respecting the creative intent of the original surround or immersive mix. You do not need any additional hardware to experience this new benefit.

New Surround to 2-Channel Rendering

In addition to content mixed for Dolby Atmos, Netflix’s spatial audio catalog will also include non-Atmos surround content.

AMBEO 2-Channel Spatial Audio rendering was created hand-in-hand with mixers and provides them with granular control of the amount of spatialization.

A preview tool allows mixers to compare standard stereo to AMBEO and adjust rendering settings by individual stems or groups. Specific stems, such as dialog, can be completely excluded from spatialization and music mixes can be kept on their left and right channels while immersive rendering is applied to any other stems. The renderer seeks to translate mixer intent while giving an impressive immersive audio experience previously inaccessible on two speakers.

Experience It Today

You can experience AMBEO 2-Channel Spatial Audio on hundreds of Netflix’s most popular titles, including Stranger Things, The Watcher, Wednesday, and Knives Out: Glass Onion.

Netflix will add forthcoming titles, such as You, Your Place or Mine, and Luther: The Fallen Sun.

For an up-to-date list of content available in spatial audio, you can simply enter “Spatial Audio” in the Netflix search field or look for the new Netflix spatial audio badge.
