Interesting...maybe the clue is in the text "it all comes down to
understanding the physics of sound waves" together with the bit about " new
Dolby Atmos-enabled speakers that produce full, detailed overhead sound
from speakers located where your conventional speakers are now" which
suggests that they are bouncing stuff of the ceiling like the old and
largely unlamented Bose stuff from a couple of decades ago. Or, they could
be using HSS type systems to put virtual spots of sound up there or...
