Thanks Mike and Stephen and really looking forward to hearing the Howard Jones 5.1’s. I did not know that Stephen worked on 2 Rush albums as well, Presto and Roll The Bones. Here is a younger Stephen picture from Geddy Lee’s book,”My Effin’ Life”, I just finished reading it.

I just re-listened to parts of it last night, including the chapters on Presto and RtB.
Is cool to hear Geddy describe Rupe as such a nice and cheerful chap!

time to embrace Roll The Bones as an essential rock album. Thank You

Nice to get glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes. Fans make all kind of assumptions about how things work. It’s always nice to hear from those who actually know the reality. Great insights.
Thanks @edisonbaggins and @Stephen W Tayler

Always great to see and listen to fellow QQ'rs.
Eric knows his stuff and he's recommended an eclectic variety in his top 5/6.

Be interesting to see and hear other QQ'rs.

That is what I had in mind, but didn’t want to be a jerk!
Happy to do a streaming-only video. Maybe if we get a sick list going and can provide a link in the description.

[Bill B]

Very nice recap. I've been hesitant to weigh in one way or the other because, while I've had a copy of both the CD and 5.1 DVD-A since they've been available, this has never been an album that I have become familiar with. I listen to it once in a great while. As a result, I can't identify the differences and recognize the nuances between each of the various mixes as well as many others. In fact, it's almost comical listening to all the different appraisals from those who know the album inside and out.
You did a good job of explaining why opinions can vary so much between listeners. So many variables.

Thanks for that detailed review, Mike. Big thumbs up for PAX, which has swiftly become one of my all-time favorite 2L titles.

Michael, you absolutely sold me on this 2L BD~A/SACD release. BTW, Morton Lindberg is a BIG fan of Meridian Bob Stuart's MQA encoding and even includes it on the CD layer of the SACD...which does incur a separate licensing fee!

Have always been a big fan of 2L ...... have many in my collection.

Thank you for your amazing review of PAX ..... and PEACE be with YOU, too

Great overview of a phenomenal immersive label, it's recording technology and it's artist's. 2L has been a favorite of mine for a number of years and I appreciate you extending deeper insight into this small but mighty Scandinavian label.

Can't wait to learn what everyone else thinks!

Great review Mike. I thought the mix was very well done, as well. Surprising, actually.
I'd be fine with Mr. or Ms. Studios doing Atmos mixes for future releases any time.

OMG. That mixing room. All for just 'bringing up the faders' I'd love to mix/listen in there.
