Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[Simon A]

The Mission with rears lowered 3dB is really sounding perfect to my ears... thanks weekendtoy! Need to try listening to this tweek at higher volume later (it's not even 7am yet)

This is one of the reasons why I wanted three amps to drive my 5.0 set-up. That way, if I want to raise of lower anything, it's a cinch.

Same masters (perhaps, first gen) but mixed differently.

I’m pretty sure this topic on the differences between the two has been covered in another Thread.

Re : Best Of Doors
That's interesting . I didn't know there were 2 different mixes . Good to know , as I have the AF SACD , and the Rhino blu -ray . (Oh and also the CD-4 disc ).
I'll have to give my ears a treat .

LIstening to right now:
Marillion Misplaced Childhood [BD]

I confess it took me several listens to fully appreciate this album. At first the vocals were distracting, now I find them complementing. I really like the guitar work!
As I think I said before, a video on the BD sort of drew me in, and since then I guess I pretty much enjoy more with every listen of the BD.

Ralphie turned me onto another gem, Phillip Bailey Soul On Jazz. All kinds of different music and fantastic surround SACD MCH. Fidelity is as clear as a bell.

Markie, those Heads~Up engineers were, IMO, real pros who understood how to record their artists and mix into 5.1 WITH INTEGRITY. Love ALL their albums.

Yes, this disc I’m listening to now is not one bit less than a SW remix, in fact maybe SW learned from Heads-Up?

Tomita-Snowflakes are dancing SACD on the first full day of Surround for me after more than 7 months!!!

Mark, another high recommendation [but priced Waaaayyyy too high] https://www.hraudio.net/showmusic.php?title=1469#tracks

The first track from the Soprano's HBO show is UBER SPECTACULAR in surround [Woke Up This Morning]

I used to pay $12 delivered for most of the Telarc/Heads~Up multichannel SACDs. Those WERE the days!

I paid $8 for that one in 2013...and it was new!..haven't listened to it recently...

Yea but doesn't mean you can't listen to it..hehe...

 

[weekendtoy]

As another LA Sunset Strip band penned around the same time...'Rockin' the house down'...

Guns N' Roses: Appetite for Destructions (Blu Ray 5.1)

 

[sjcorne]

Don Ellis- Tears Of Joy (SQ LP)

Found this at a record store today and it's a lot of fun! Quirky jazz recording, suprisingly good separation.

Quad mix is by Phil Macy, who I believe also did the awesome Chase self-titled LP. It's also another Columbia mix that's SQ only with no discrete version out there.

 

[mlrocker]

Genius. lol

 

[Frogmort]

The Allman Brothers Band - Idlewild South It don't get much more discrete than this.

 

[Tornado Red]

Tears For Fears - Songs From The Big Chair on blu ray in pcm 5.1 ...some people have a dislike for what SW did to this, I’m not one of those people

...followed by

Patricia Barber - Modern Cool on blu ray in 5.1, just to change atmospheres a bit
