Guns N‘ Roses - Appetite For Destruction Locked N’ Loaded Edition

[LennonCobain]

Maybe one of the 4 discs contains a surround sound mix. I hope so!

For that kind of price, I've LOST MY APPETITE!

I bet we end up seeing a lot of price fluctuations much like the Roxy set. I am however a big fan of the album and it would certainly be cool in surround.

If a 5.1 mix is in fact included, I wonder who did it (this doesn't seem like a group Steven Wilson would associate with). Hopefully we'll get some answers soon...

Odds seem low for surround, but I have to think we'll get a HD download or 24/96 stereo. Welcome to the Jungle was on the "Re-Discover Music With High Fidelity Pure Audio" sampler in fantastic dynamic range.

First of all, I hate Guns N Roses, so if this deluxe edition does contain a 5.1 surround mix, it would have to be a damn good mix, and I would only get it for less than $100.
Anything more than that is just pure overkill in terms of price for me.

 

[ubertrout]

And...I misspoke. There's a blu-ray audio with a 5.1 mix. The version showed in the unboxing is I suspect the beyond super deluxe edition, but we'll learn more in the next days and weeks I suspect.

So, this is huge, at least for me. GnR is my favorite rock act, enough that I saw them twice on their reunion tour (in Vegas and locally). I've always hoped for this album (IMO the finest rock album, period) in 5.1 but assumed it would never happen. More to come here.

The video was posted a day early and has been pulled. Suffice to say it clearly said blu-ray audio with 5.1 mixes. I imagine it will be reposted around midnight (eastern) tomorrow.

Aha, excellent stuff. Still for that sort of money I would only buy it if it's a standalone I think. I'm sure that guitar intro on Sweet Child O' Mine would sound pretty awesome though!

 

[edisonbaggins]

Absolutely iconic album, but not a favorite band. I will only consider 5.1 at stand-alone or severely discounted price.

 

[salsdali]

saw them with the Stones at the Coliseum back in the day

Listened to appetite for a good year or two so super excited to have this in 5.1

Thankfully someone downloaded the unboxing trailer and reposted it on Twitter.
This is way too excessive for me, but I might consider a simplified box set that only had the CDs and Blu-Ray.

You know where you are? You're in the 5.1 jungle baby.....

 

[MrSmithers]

Cool! There’s actually a lot of bang for buck there... Although I think I’d be the ultimate dickhead if I were to wear the bandana!

 

[dobyblue]

Oh I am SO bloody sold already, hopefully there will be a version that's affordable containing the Blu-ray (like, you know, a standalone SKU?) but if not I'll swallow the cost and just resell minus the Blu-ray at a $50 discount or something to ensure I don't swallow too hard.

Rocket Queen in 5.1? Scratch that, one of the biggest baddest rock and roll albums of all time in its entirety in 5.1? Barry Diament's original CD mastering is great, Axl chose a very dynamic version of Chinese Democracy after Bob Ludwig mastered three different versions...hopefully this set will be chock full of dynamics and the surround mix will be done by someone like Clearmountain and NOT someone like Adam Kasper, lol.

Please surround Gods, make this mix a good one.

 

[skherbeck]

Pre-ordered (someone had to do it!) One of my favorite albums of all time. I hope there's a ring in there.

 

[haikubass]

.....where the mix is green and the rears are pretty ;-)

 

[skherbeck]

OK, watched the video... so no ring. Cancelled my order.

 

[ubertrout]

I've pre-ordered from Amazon (the $180 version, not the $650 version). This is going to be my very first time pre-ordering a megabox, and likely the only time thereafter as well, unless they do something similar for UYI 1 & 2. But I suppose we'll have more details come midnight.

 

[Snood]

SNOOD PREORDERED BUT GOT ME FINGER ON CANCEL BUTTON IF ME SNIFF A WAY BETTER PRICE OR HEAR IT CRAP 5.1

oooops caps......

That's the craziest box set I've ever seen for one album. HS!
