See the remarkable thing here is that this is a Warner controlled title. We have not seen much quad Warner titles appear in recent years besides the two Quadio box sets. And while the Sony stuff we have been getting is mostly first rate, and always welcome, WB/Reprise is where some of the missing gold is.

Ordered. I already have the corrected quad version of this album, but the Atmos and 5.1 mix are calling me. This is one of a handful of albums I just never feel the nagging idea that I am tired of it or ever could tire of it. As much as I love ILTCTW, I almost feel about it the same way I feel about Dream On on Aerosmith's debut album: Great song, but I've heard it a million times, and the rest of the album is what appeals to me more.
 
So do you all think we've accounted for about 100 of the available copies so far?
I think when you include the lurkers, QQ has or will be responsible for over 200 copies ordered by end of Monday. 400 total gone within 5 days. 40 to 60 days for it to sell out completely. I take it that this will not appear at other online retail sites? Because if it was offered at Amazon, AS, and a couple other sites it would sell out much sooner. Not trying to single out any countries, but it does appear Japan sellers are but one of the countries that buy up limited editions to flip and ask 3x the original prices. Much of the still sealed Audio Fidelity product is sold from Japan I have noticed on Discogs. So once it's all sold out, I expect Discogs will have it for a longer period from international sellers in the $80 to $110 range. I'm currently asking $60 to $85 for my AF SACDs with 4.0 (sealed copies), and I'm getting it.

A Space in Time, the 1971 album from British rock band Ten Years After, is #7 in the continuing SDE Surround Series of exclusive Blu-ray Audios with Dolby Atmos Mixes.

The 1971 album is being reissued (belatedly) for its 50th anniversary. It was the group’s sixth, and best-selling album, featuring their best-known track ‘I’d Love To Change The World’, which is used regularly on film and TV (most recently in David O. Russell’s 2022 film Amsterdam). A Space in Time saw the band taking a more melodic direction from previous releases and showcased the band at their peak.

The Blu-ray Audio is only available via SDE and is packed with great content, as follows:

  • New Dolby Atmos Mix
  • 5.1 Mix (DTS HD-Master Audio 5.1)
  • 1973 Quad Mix (DTS HD-Master Audio 4.0)
  • 2023 Chris Kimsey Stereo Mix (48/24)
  • Flat transfer of the Original 1971 Mix (48/24)
The Quad Mix corrects the channels which were inadvertently switched (front to back) on the 2012 DVD (which came with a vinyl LP). The brand new stereo mix is by original producer/engineer, Chris Kimsey, using transfers from the original two-inch multitrack tapes. Chris’ work on the stereo mix was the basis for the new Atmos Mix.

Here’s the now traditional reminder as to why this product is highly recommended:

  • It’s the only way to enjoy the Dolby Atmos mix of the album via a physical product
  • You don’t need to sign-up to a streaming service such as Tidal or Apple Music to hear the spatial audio mix
  • The Atmos Mix on the blu-ray is not compressed due to streaming bandwidth restrictions
  • You own the product, you are not renting it from a digital service provider
  • The blu-ray audio is an excellent format for music and you don’t want to see it die off
  • Supporting SDE with these initiatives leads to similar collaborations with labels/artists and we are keen to bring your more in the near future
Be aware, there is no pre-order window – this blu-ray is limited to 1,000 units worldwide. Don’t miss out – secure your copy by pre-ordering from the SDE shop using this link or the ‘add to cart’ button below. This product is not available anywhere else and we ship worldwide (tracked service to USA is £8, for example).

A Space in Time will be released on 17 March 2023 and is a collaboration between SDE and Chrysalis Records. This item will ship with a free, collectible SDE Surround Series slipcase.
Just ordered! One of my all time favorites!
 
I’m surprised at the number of QQers that have little or no knowledge of this great band. I started listening to them on Shhhhh as an 11 year old and have loved them since. Dug Alvin Lee’s guitar work so much that I had to get my own Gibson ES-335 (pictured in my avatar). My heartfelt thanks to my brother @GOS for alerting me to this gem’s availability!
