Thanks to @popshop , I cancelled my preorder and am now getting this from my local record store, Squeezebox!
Finally ripped the band-aid off in this one. I love the 5.1 and don't think I nee the Atmos, but the price with free shipping can't be resisted. the Bograzon wins again.OK, fine. Ordered! Thanks for the link Ryan.
Surely you could just give it a spin on Spotify/Tidal/Apple/You tube first? It's quite different from Wilson's other stuff, so might be worth checking first...I've not heard this, but since it's Wilson and Atmos I decided that $20 isn't a big risk to see if I like it. Now if we could just get him to give the Atmos treatment to his early solo stuff and PT.
I almost choked on my beer. LOL! If Steven gets it right? I'd say there is a high probability he will.I really don't want to buy the album again, but... I might end up doing so, if SW really gets it right.

This is Steve's baby so he'll probably hit it out of the ATMOS ball park with his usual sheer intensity! So be sure to double check that your overhead speakers are properly anchored!I almost choked on my beer. LOL! If Steven gets it right? I'd say there is a high probability he will.
Can things get much better for us passionate multich listeners & buyers ???I almost choked on my beer. LOL! If Steven gets it right? I'd say there is a high probability he will.

What kind of Atmos setup do you have? Nice to know.The Atmos mix is great. In my opinion it is much better and clearer than the 5.1 mix, which I also always liked. Steven Wilson is probably the number one Atmos engineer right now. His mixes are excellent! Even if you have the 2012 version with the 5.1 mix, it is worth buying the new edition with the Atmos mix.
5.1.2. But despite the "modest" setup, I think the mix is great. Lots of action from the back and up high.What kind of Atmos setup do you have? Nice to know.
So, you'd say it's not just an "update" to the 5.1, but a wholly different presentation?5.1.2. But despite the "modest" setup, I think the mix is great. Lots of action from the back and up high.
It depends what you mean by "update". I have a lot of Atmos mixes by Steven Wilson and there are usually some differences between 5.1 and Atmos, for example some elements are heard from above instead of in front. In my opinion you can hear the differences between the mixes. But I guess it's hard to expect it to be a drastically different mix.So, you'd say it's not just an "update" to the 5.1, but a wholly different presentation?
