Hi albertmj49,


Thanks for coming out to Apple Support Communities! We're glad to answer questions you've got about spatial audio.


While spatial audio is available for AirPods Pro, this feature works when AirPods Pro are paired with iPhone and iPad devices. Mac isn't supported for spatial audio and AirPods Pro. Here's a guide with more information:


Listen with spatial audio for AirPods Pro


If you have a surround sound speaker system, it's possible to configure your MacBook Air to work with surround sound. Here are the instructions to help:

We're here for you if you've got any questions.


Have a great day!
