Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[beerking]

This also arrived today, Kansas - The Absence of Presence Blu-ray, I am listening to the LPCM, it's a bit different to the Be-Bop the surround is not so 'in your face' and I am getting the urge to up the rears a bit, but there is stuff going on in them, the whole thing sounds less defined. The music itself is great though.

Didnt order this one Sven, as I thought it would be an unknown quantity!!

Very pleased with Axe Victim, this is a very good record and mix. First listen for me. Although I remember 'John Peel' playing their music on his fantastic radio show .

Axe victim is a clear 9+ and rapidly becoming my favourite release by the Be Boppers.

Now this is interesting, I've never come across it before, but I'm now playing the Kansas back in DTS HD-Master and I swear it sounds much better, less muddy with much brighter highs, even the surrounds are louder, I'll have to do some more back to back testing but that's my findings.

You know me Ralphie, I dont pull my punches with my reactions to our beloved pastime.
Mr Stephen Taylor did an ace job with the surround mix on this album. Nobody will be disappointed with this release!!

I have had 5 full listens now and some single songs, in the Sony and the OPPO and I think the DTS has an edge over LPCM, I always choose LPCM if the choice is there DTS second and Dolby last. I am really loving the songs on this though, an excellent album.

How come this never made it into the polls? It's Silverline so that's gonna inherently suck but it's not that bad and I'm really growing to appreciate John Popper.

Feels like I'm onstage at the Fillmore East.

Just played that one , too. Have you noticed that Geoff Emerick engineered and Paul McCartney produced ?

How considerate of you to notice Ralphie, and you’re so modest as well.
