Dolby Atmos is changing the way we experience music and now, it’s coming to the car.
With the launch of our next-generation platform, the DMH-WT8000NEX, we sat down with Ray Kimber, founder of Kimber Kable, to go deeper into what Dolby Atmos really means for audio, beyond the buzzwords.
This wasn’t just a product conversation.
It was an opportunity to explore how music is created, how it’s meant to be heard, and why immersive formats like Dolby Atmos represent such a major shift for both home and in-car listening.
Filmed inside a Weber State's world class recording studio, this interview dives into:
What makes Dolby Atmos different from traditional stereo
How music is evolving for immersive playback
And how platforms like SPHERA and the DMH-WT8000NEX are bringing that experience into your vehicle
If you care about sound quality, system design, or the future of car audio—this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
