[4-earredwonder]

I do to, just purchased $25.00.

You paid TOO much .... and NO OBI, Markie?

Should sound awesome in ATMOS....so ENJOY, MY MAIN MAN!

Wow, wow, wow, Abbey Road in Atmos was spectacular, the high light was Ringo's mini drum solo, was that end of Golden Slumber or The End, coming out of all the height speakers, just mind blowing man, super duper good. Out of this world, I could of listened a 1000 times in a row..
So much conteversery with music Atmos. Turn it up, unplug, close my eyes and listen, WOW, so good. I feel like a kid in 1991 with my first Panasonic surround system.
Even when there is nothing like Ringo's height speaker drum solo the immersive experience is a brave new world man, sublime.
Now listening for the first time to INXS KICK 30th in Dolby Atmos, noticed right off the bat I had to turn up INXS louder to match the feel of Abbey Road. Letting go of Atmos expectations and having a blast, that's me.
It helps when you love the music, Beatles and INXS, LOVE IT .

Not quite.
So far: I had to order 4 XLR cables $36.00 to hold me over till the Audioquest Water XLR's come in.
The 3 subs where in, all REl's the S5 I already had works perfect. the S812 and S510 both failed and had to return, the S812 had a big hum and the S510 was DOA. Very frustrating but no questions and the manufacturer is swapping with new, impressive.
In fact the North America REL president is coming over my house on the 20th to make sure everything is OK, wow, I'm nervous.
The remote installed screwed up my network, another delay, that needs to be fixed. The more high end the more problems.
So, I figure I am 85% but sometimes you just need to say fuck it, and listen to what you got.

Another WOWZER, Booka Shade Galvany Street, OK, these guys/gals no how to do audio Atmos. I purchased this in 2018, who knew?
Interesting fact with Booka Shade they do not use the Atmos as immersive, only discrete, so either there on or off, that's cool.

Roland is a LEO kitty...nice Astrological joke!

Ok, up next may well be the most impressive use of ATMOS so far. Do you want music flying around and above your head ? Zipping back and forth and all around? I DO !!!

It's Friday People !!!

I just gave this a first spin tonight. I played it in ATMOS 7.2.4

I don't know who Fritz Hilpert is, but he did one hell of a job on the ATMOS mix. Within the first 15 seconds, you know you are in for a treat. At about a minute thirty, the LFE kicks in, and then it's time to reach for the remote and see what the album can do. Intense!

PS: I just added this release on Discogs

He's one of the members of Kraftwerk - he mixed their Minimum-Maximum SACD, and although it's not credited, I'm sure he had a hand in their 3-D The Catalogue Atmos Blu-Ray as well.

The surround mix is very good on 'The Letting Go' album. Not aggressive, but fitting for the music. Lost of strings and backing female vocals in the rears.

And come to find out (from a member of a Facebook group) that that the DVD-A is still available new from Drag City. This after I bought a used copy on Discogs earlier this year...
