Netflix has now announced that with the help of Sennheiser they are the first streaming service to offer spatial audio on all devices. In a Netflix blog post, they say…

“Some of the most iconic moments in TV and film are defined by the immersive moments they create through sound. Without its excellent sound design, would the final fight scene in The Adam Project be as electric? Would Eddie Munson’s epic guitar scene in Stranger Things 4 bring the ǝpᴉsdn uʍop to life the same way?”

Netflix has already started to roll out content in their catalog in spatial audio, and you can hear it for yourself by typing “spatial audio” into the search bar and selecting a show or film that supports it in the search results.

Note that as a user, if you do not have surround sound speakers, Netflix says that spatial audio is enabled automatically when watching a compatible TV show or movie using stereo audio. If you have surround sound speakers, watching TV shows and movies in 5.1 surround sound or Dolby Atmos is recommended.
