SAN FRANCISCO, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Dolby Laboratories, a leader in immersive entertainment experiences, and TCL, one of the world's best-selling TV brands, announced that support for Dolby Atmos FlexConnect is coming to TCL's 2025 QD-Mini LED TVs in its Precise Dimming Series, including the QM8K, QM7K, and QM6K. Dolby Atmos FlexConnect is a new feature that unlocks the ability to place speakers anywhere you choose, while optimizing the sound experience to fit any room layout or speaker configuration. It provides a customized Dolby Atmos experience where any seat will feel like the best seat in the house.

TCL will also introduce the Z100 smart, panoramic sound speaker, designed to pair with TCL's lineup of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect-enabled TVs. Starting this summer, customers can connect up to four Z100 speakers working alongside the TV speakers to create a tailored Dolby Atmos experience.

"The launch of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect across TCL's Precise Dimming Series marks a new chapter of personalized home audio experiences," said John Couling, Senior Vice President of Entertainment at Dolby Laboratories. "With Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, consumers can unlock even more flexibility and adaptability in how they design their home entertainment systems, while removing the stress of whether their speakers are in the right location to get an incredible Dolby Atmos experience."

"TCL and Dolby share a long history of redefining home entertainment – TCL's entire 2025 4K TV lineup sport Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, all of our full feature sound bars use Dolby Atmos, and soon we'll have Dolby Atmos FlexConnect," said Chris Hamdorf, Executive Vice President at TCL North America. "Dolby Atmos FlexConnect empowers customers to enjoy a premium immersive audio experience that's tailored to their unique preferences and spaces."

Consumers seek the best audio from their sound systems, but room constraints often make optimal speaker placement a challenge. Whether due to room size, outlet locations, or balancing sound performance with aesthetics, positioning speakers can be frustrating. Dolby Atmos FlexConnect unlocks the freedom to place one or more wireless speakers anywhere in a room without having to worry whether they are placed perfectly. The solution is easily adaptable as more devices are added no matter where they are placed, intelligently optimizing the Dolby Atmos rendering of each speaker and the TV to create the best possible experience available that's tailored to the room.

The launch of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect in the United States follows the explosive growth of Dolby Atmos content around the globe, which is the leading and only immersive audio experience spanning all your favorite entertainment – from film to streaming, music, sports, gaming, and beyond.
