Buying a standalone BD with Atmos? In a heartbeat (so to speak)! A box set for nearly 3 X Immersion that doesn't have the Parsons quad mix? Don't think so not even to get Atmos. At this point, owning the Immersion set & the Guthrie 5.1 SACD, I don't think I'm buying, as much as I would like to hear this in Atmos. It would have to be seriously discounted. I can wait.

For different reasons, it's another Revolver: missing an essential mix item for completist fans. And I've already paid the price for 1 gimped box set. The one difference is this one at least has an honest & well-explained list of what's included. Unlike Revolver which was incompetently marketed, with misleading announcements if not borderline lying. At least Pink Floyd & studio have got their act together in accurately describing what you get for $300!

Revolver was a black mark on the label and Giles Martin's reputation on how they handled its release.

...now give that another 50% discount and I might bite. maybe. Nah. Just don't need all that stuff.

Agreed, around $150 seems reasonably fair. $300 no.

$300...

If you go to jpc.de and type in Atmos blu ray, there are lots of releases not in huge box sets. Postage to USA however I do not know.

SDE says no and they are pretty reliable folks.

There does not appear to be any standalone reissues of the 2023 remaster of The Dark Side of the Moon, so the three physical formats for this 50th anniversary campaign are: deluxe box set, vinyl LP of Live at Wembley 1974 and CD of Live at Wembley 1974. Unlike with Animals, they are not making the spatial audio available separately, so buying the box set is the only way to get the Atmos mix, physically.

Apologies duped this. If I’m wrong come September shoot me

Come on Guys, $300 isn’t fair, $150 isn’t fair, $75 isn’t fair because you already have great quality 5.1, Quad, and Stereo mixes. What is left is a box, paper that you really don’t want or need and will look at a time or two at most then put the box away in the closet.
What you really only need possibly is the Atmos mix and that is debatable it will be that great of an Atmos mix. Does anyone know who has mixed the Dolby Atmos yet? It should only be worth around $40 even at PF prices.

James Guthrie.

James Guthrie.

Thanks. I personally really like James Guthrie mixes. I just love the Quad mix alot more than the James Guthrie 5.1 of DSOM

Here's the official unboxing video:

Nice video. I bought the blu ray from the Immersion Set of DSOTM off of Ebay back in 2013. I imagine someone will be selling parts of this one on Ebay. So, I am going to pass. Besides, I'm saving my bread for The Who's Next boxset. I imagine that one will be around $300. I hope the announcement for that is coming soon.

It sure looks nice, but still ain't worth it!

I know this sounds extremely nitpicky but jeez, the photo book is paperback? I thought for sure it'd be hardbound (again, trying to make at least some sense of the price point). I'm thankful for the flip-through though, because it's clear to me now that I don't need the book either. So, only the Atmos mix is tugging at me, then... I'm gonna wait it out to see what the reviews say (and hope the price drops too).

The music book is really a WTF, no? I can't remember an instance of anything like that being included in another SDE. But what a boon for those who'd like sit down at the ol' spinnet and happily hammer-out "On The Run" at the next family gathering!

 

[rontoon]

The photo book should be hardcover. The lyric book is soft.

 

[harync]

$266.79 on Popmarket, lowest I've seen so far. Still getting a smirk from me, but moving in the right direction.

Best deal I have seen so far is $243.19 + tax from Target if you have their Redcard. Still can’t make myself pull the trigger as much as I want that Atmos disc.

Ah, alright—in the still they're using in the video I wasn't registering the black hardcover beneath.
