Will this be 5.1? This lush record would sound amazing.

The links in post #11 & #43 seem to indicate that Steve Wilson has done an Atmos mix. Other sources further add that it looks like it will be part of 40th Anniversary deluxe box set and not just a streaming option.

Steven Wilson always creates a dedicated 5.1 mix as part of his Atmos process, so I'd expect that to be included too if there is indeed a Blu-Ray.

https://universalmusiconline.es/products/abc-lexicon-of-love-4lp-blu-ray
4 LP + Blu-Ray edition of the album that welcomed the '80s. Includes rarities and live tracks never before released on vinyl, the original album mastered at half-speed at Abbey Road by Miles Showell, the restored ABC film Mantrap in HD for the first time on Blu-Ray and a new 5.1 Atmos surround mix of the album by Steven Wilson. Along with liner notes by Martin Fry and an essay by Daryl Easlea (Record Collector), this box set is a sumptuous celebration of one of Pop's most perfect albums. Double gatefold edition featuring outtakes from the cover photo shoot by Gered Mankowitz.

I sure hope there is a CD/Blu-Ray box set equivalent
Don’t really want or need a bunch of LPs

Agreed. One or two LPs in a box set also including CDs, that's fine. But four?

 

[sjcorne]

Glad there is a Blu-Ray though! It’s not always guaranteed nowadays…

I’m curious if there’s anything else on the Blu-Ray besides the 5.1 & Atmos mixes though. 96/24 original stereo remaster? SW’s stereo remix?

What a waste (for some of us!)

This vendor might have some additional info (SKU is 0602445227310) - I got blocked 'cos I'm a robot - too much Daft Punk in the last 24 hours I guess

You’ll be lucky to see $125 but I hope Burning Shed will carry it because I’m not going to rely on Amazon US.
