i've heard many great things about dolby cinema; the image quality, colors, etc. but especially the audio quality. I've always heard people describe it having "floor shaking" bass. I recently watched Michael in dolby cinema because i knew atmos would be superior to imax for a musical but I was left kinda disappointed. for context, this dolby cinema branch is in kuwait, the avenues mall. the 3D audio definitely was good but I felt it lacked something. the bass was barely felt, audio sounded a bit lower compared to the normal screens as well. my first guess was maybe because we're in a mall they have restrictions on this but dolby calibrate their own audio to a standard level so I wouldn't expect that to happen. so i was wondering if my expectations were too high or if there might be a fault on the theatres side because i know dolby atmos can be way better
