Spatial Audio FAQs

What is Spatial Audio?

Spatial Audio (Also referred to as 3D Sound / 8D Audio) is an immersive listening experience that creates the illusion that sounds are traveling 360 degrees around the listener’s head, especially when wearing earphones.

What is the difference between 3D Sound and 8D Audio?

3D Sound & 8D Audio are different marketing terms to describe the exact same spatial audio technology- binaural ‘holophonics’. In cultural use, ‘8D Audio’ usually refers to a trend where music is played while traveling around the listener’s head, while ‘3D Sound’ is attached to a broader spectrum of immersive experiences.

How do I experience Spatial Audio?

To listen to a spatial audio experience, all you need is any normal pair of earphones (no special equipment required). Put them in, then check out our premiere 3D Sound YouTube project, The Tucker Zone, which currently has over 16 million+ views.
