10. I've been a huge fan of this album since it was new but never acquired or heard it in quad until recently. The imaging of the guitar tracks gives this a whole new dimension.
Why did I wait so long to get it in quad?
Wired is cool! Love Jan hammer band. saw JB once live and I was deeply disappointed as then there were no stage effects, he showed himself to be a great studio artist, but the Hammer band who opened and played with him, was much better.One of Beck's best and the mix more than matches his inspiration (some of WIRED is equal in quality, some ain't). A '9.' Good that this came out on SACD, a pity others did not.

I'm pleased to report that I saw JB live on 10/30/13 in Milwaukee. He was spectacular. Brian Wilson was also on the bill. If you get a chance to see JB, don't miss him.
It's mentioned on another forum that this Blow by Blow is 5.1 rather than the quad mix.

(some plonker fred blathering on about how Wired in Hi-Rez Quad would be preferable to BxB all over again..!)
..then someone wades in with an Engrish tlansration of blurb from a seller's site.. which mentions 5.1.. but it's not clear to me as to what the hell all that means, as I talk a different form of gibberish!
Yeah - A saw that one and noted the Wired quad rant...
The translation is taken straight from Google Translate....
It's multi-board. So if you get bored with it you can put up a fence with the materials.There's this discussion over at sa-cd.net..

The original SACD was 5.1 however it was the quad mix with a "fake" center channel and LFE created from the quad mixIt's mentioned on another forum that this Blow by Blow is 5.1 rather than the quad mix.
It seems that "multiboard" is meant to specify "SACD 5.1/SACD 2.0/CD"It's multi-board. So if you get bored with it you can put up a fence with the materials.
