Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

Queen the Game

ok.. getting stuck into the Dream Theater and its not bad at all so far.

musically i love it.
soundwise certain aspects are a wee bit crunchy and maybe there's not enough low end in the Centre & Rears (not sure there's much going on in the C?) but generally it sounds ok.. the Front L&R are a bit dominant in the mix maybe.

the credits in the book are kinda unclear as to exactly who mixed the 5.1 on the BD-A (Distance Over Time).. so..

was it Richard Chycki? Ben Grosse? Tom Baker? Peter van't Riet? Henry Kissinger? was it all of them? or none of them! hmm.. maybe i did it..!?

Queen the Game

when you're feeling down
and your resistance is low
light another cigarette
and let yourself go

Decoded the QS with my SM2, Quad sounds great

it's not QS but you should try the original Cords mix, it definitely sounds as if it were QS encoded

think its a tough one to rate.. do you judge it from a purely Surround pov? if you can overlook that its only half an album in Quad and the other half upmixed in a stuffed box set with no other Surround? is it then in 7-9 territory? which is where its at with only 3 votes.. hmm..

Somehow I don't think we'll get a standalone of the 1 disc we all want....

It is a very good disk and it certainly sounds great, but I wouldn’t say it has better music than Gaucho!

just my opinion....

yeah it feels unlikely.. maybe a repress of the box since its gone OOP already?

I still love Gaucho also
