My front speakers have Atmos but my rears don’t.

But Atmos is a receiver level technology?
How does a speaker "have Atmos"?

It has to have upward drives to really have Atmos. It needs the ability to bounce it off other surfaces for it to really be Atmos.

Wouldn't that mean you have a 5.1.2 setup, a valid Atmos configuration?
The rear ones don't have to have any upfiring capabilities.

Yeah, full disclosure I have a full atmos system and it’s a noticeable improvement in positional accuracy over even DTS-HD Master. I wish there were less expensive solutions though so that it could go mainstream.
