Dave Bryce Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Oh, yeah... The surround mixes are killer. Anybody else got it yet? dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George88 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I only got the stereo version. I heard interview with Giles and wish I had a 5.1 system. Pretty great, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Bryce Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 I"m a big 5.1 guy. I have way too many surround remixes. dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bryce Posted October 10, 2019 Author Share Posted October 10, 2019 Well, depends on your tastes, of course...and not just the music. Since there really are no standards for surround mixing, the engineers do what they want. It"s cool how many of them are not just mix in the front, fx in the back. Some of my faves: Dark Side Of The Moon, Toy Matinee, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Relayer, The Lamb Lies Down, Tommy and Quadrophenia, Tarkus, TOTO IV, Rumours, Blow By Blow, Thick As a Brick...and pretty much any of the Beatles ones. Sergeant Pepper"s is the best Beatles one, IMO. I have over 100.... dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazerkeys Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I only got the vinyl so can't speak to the 5.1 .. but have heard others say that the 5.1 is great ... I really enjoyed the Giles Martin remix of Sgt Peppers and the White Album .. excellent ... BUT ..... I think Abbey Road is one of those that really didn't need much more of a remix ... I compared the G Martin remix to the original vinyl and the MFSL (original master vinyl) and the older two were crisp clear, but also so much warmer than the new remix ...... the additional two LPs in the box set are interesting outtakes, etc .. but probably would have just got those on CD to save money ........realize sound is very subjective, but just my two cents .... there are some interesting things like panning the drums across the soundstage on the intro of Something ... but .. I still like the originals !!!
