Doubtful even the keenest ears could differentiate between 24/48 and 24/96 ........it's the BITS [24] that count. Pupster, can I put you down for three pairs of ATC SCM 25A PRO speakers? The Wife Factor: Tell her you'll build her a greenhouse for ALL HER PLANTS!
May work for others here but I’m the Gardner in my family. I’m more interested in carrying on with the conversation about our ability to hear the difference between 24/48 & 24/96; it just needs its own thread.
 
Here’s Michael Fremer’s review of the stereo remix (spoiler alert - he likes it):

And note his “review” of the surround mixes (bet you can guess how little ink he used for that part - spoiler alert: he ain’t interested):

“I played the Blu-ray on my home theatre system. It includes the 96/24 full resolution files that I’ll have to get a computer BD drive to extract, as well as DTS-HD and Dolby Atmos surround mixes. Call me old fashioned, or go ahead and just call me old, these didn’t do much for me compared to the plain old stereo remix. But that’s just me.”

Thanks @mrcond, very interesting review, especially with changes in vocal/instrument placement (pg-2.) And yes, old stereo vinyl guy alert (Michael Fremer!) That's fine with me, nothing wrong with great stereo vinyl; but on the other hand, it's not surround.
And just to be clear, the quote is Michael Fremer's, not mrcond's.
 
Trivia question for Pupster 🐶 regarding Paul's appearance on the Steven Colbert Show: Paul just published a children's book called HEY GRANDUDE, inspired by one of his grandchidren who called him Grandude .... what is the name of the Grandchild, Pupster❓

BTW, Pupster 🐶 .... in the I didn't need to know department and since you failed to answer correctly ..... It was Paul McCartney's grandson, BECKETT, who inspired Paul to write his children's tome, Hey Grandude!

And because you were an unwilling participant .... you are in the doghouse!

Looks pretty relaxed and content to me; probably just stuck the new AR on 5.1 in doggie house nirvana 🤗
