Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[Spock]

Watched the Chicago documentary on Netflix the other day - and loved (the first half) of it. Nice to see the guys in those early years - when they made these great albums - and now to listen to them in discrete 4.0.

AFAIK, Elliot only mixed "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "You're My Best Friend" as they utilized the 5.1 mixes from the "Night at the Opera" DVD-A for this release.

I wonder who did the 5.1 mix for the rest of the Queens Greatest Video Hits DVD then? Both the liner notes and information on Discogs are pretty confusing.

I have never really into Chicago, after watching the "Netflix" documentary my opinion has not changed, great musicians undoubtedly, but their music just leaves me cold.

More Djabe, live this time, on blu ray:

The cover says:

It was one of the live surround shows of the Down and Up album tour.

Cool

Excellent picture, sound and surround mix on this disc - but it has a DTS HD Hi Res soundtrack, not Master HD - not often I see this. Sounds great though, 96/24.

There are also some bonus features with Steve Hackett in an acoustic setting, tank driving etc :banana:

More Ayreon :banana:

This time with Stream of Passion, only DD (as usual) - but nice discrete surround.

That's funny Spock, just came in here to say I'm listening to Ayreon - The Source and yours was the last post, with Ayreon.

I'm very new to this band but I've heard a couple of their albums a couple of times, but listening to The Source for the first time right now and I am really loving it a lot. :music

The Boss!

Excellent perfomance, a "plugged" MTV concert from 1992 - on a 2004 dvd with Dolby Digital 5.1 mix. Mixed by Bob Clairmountain?!? Not discrete but with a nice use of the rears - creating a very "BIG" sound - sounds great!

This arrived in the post this morning, I'm having my first listen, sounding very good so far, unmistakably Magenta.
Here's photos of the audio choice menu, and last song on the album.

from dedicated thread:

... the album was recorded/mastered in 24bit 44.1...so no point in 24/96.
But I can assure you the DTS sounds great....also I'm more than happy to offer a download of FLAC or raw 24/44.1 wavs to anybody who buys the album, and contacts me with proof of purchase...
Im about to offer ALL (Magenta/Kompendium/Solo,etc) the back catalogue in 5.1 FLAC as digital downloads...Info to follow.
thanks

Every picture tells a story. DVDV is that 48/24? DTS & Dobly the same.

Finally getting around this one. Superb sound and crazy Montenegro Quad sound. Love it. The rhythm section is fabulous.

Best thing about the Acura is rediscovering awesome 5.1 mixes again. from the first beat, "Remain in Light" by Talking Heads (5.1 DVDA) sounds so awesome in the Acura!

I got my Bryan Ferry, Frantic, today and like others it is an SACD Hybrid Multichannel, even though my receipt in the packaging says DVD-Audio.
