Sony has re-entered the AV amplifier market in the UK, with the launch of the TA-AN1000, a 7.2, 4k 120Hz (and 8k) capable amplifier with native support for 360 Spatial Sound mapping. Naturally, the TA-AN1000 also works with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology has previously been seen on the company’s soundbars and active speakers.
It can create an immersive listening experience by creating multiple phantom speakers, making it ideal for media rooms and challenging AV installations.
