I have tried everything to have Spacial Audio available for my Airpods MAX. My iPad Air 2 is updated to IOS 14.4 and the Airpods MAX firmware has been updated to 3C16. I'm looking everywhere and can't see the option in Bluetooth - Airpods MAX - Info. Spacial Audio is NOT there.
Many older iPad models do not support spatial audio with the AirPods Pro or the AirPods Max.
Many older iPad models lack the special audio hardware chip that is ONLY found in the newest high end iPads and iPhone models.
Sorry.
I was searching "how to" instead of "what devices are supported". Turns out my iPad Air 2 is NOT supported. iPad Air 3 or better is required.
What is the audio source?
Test with a new movie trailer.
