Rush "Signals" Dolby Atmos Mix! (Box Set Out in April!)

[anandchristi]

Another $300 boxset for Canadians!

Not sure what they mean by this statement, is it to stream or purchase somewhere!
"Finally, the third configuration, the Dolby Atmos Digital Edition, is the digital equivalent of Richard Chycki’s expert Atmos mix of all eight tracks from the original album."

You think this is just another Revolver scenario? Meaning they’re just saying there’s an Atmos mix streaming on Apple Music?

That's pretty much the exact language they used last time for Moving Pictures (they called it the "sixth configuration" I believe) and it turned out to just be referencing the streaming version, so I'm assuming the same here.

Where did you see that at?

It was at the very bottom for me. In the article on Rush.com that @rtbluray posted.

I can only afford the new special "Signals" beer which is already pretty expensive and I will keep listening to my old "Signals" 5.1 mixes. Those expensive box sets are an absolute joke to fans who have supported the band over the years. I am pretty sure that Alex and Geddy don't make a lot of money on this...

I guess the Atmos mix will reappear on the streaming services with the new artwork once the set is released?

Wow, awesome.. never doubted Baggy for a sec....

 

[Tres Discrete]

U know what's he's gonna do. Purchase boxset-->sell it cheaper on ebay-->keep bluray cant blame 'em with those prices!

I’ve done that too…but I sure am getting tired of it…just let us buy the damn blu-ray, for crying out loud

Sadly no concert from the Signals tour but as it is my favorite Rush album I probably wont wait for the price to drop like I did with the other sets and will go ahead and buy the backstage exclusive version. Definitely seems a bit light on music content for the price.

 

[edisonbaggins]

Price watch?

 

[IMachine]

264€ for an album! Never!
No extra tracks no live set!
8 tracks!

Im just hoping that - for this price - we dont get the early fadeout ( short version ) of Countdown. We want it all dammit !

Yet another surround blu-ray buried in a $250+ bloated box packed with unwanted vinyl I'd never play and lots of pics I'd glance through once or twice. The new art work looks nice, but since I'm not an über Rush fan, this is an easy pass. Have to be content with streaming the Atmos mix, assuming it returns on Apple music.

 

[kap'n krunch]

methinks they went a BIT overboard with the price...I think $100 less would be the ALMOST perfect price...

 

[kap'n krunch]

Let's see....
-one LP
-one BD
-4 7" 45RPMs
-a box
-a skinny book
-a bunch of mass produced photos
(no marbles or scarves)

That would be $75 for anyone with a 2 finger high forehead...
$250 is highway robbery .. and I LOVE Signals!!!...

Don’t forget the remastered CD, that adds quite a bit of value

Sorry, I lie down corrected

 

[srbjab]

That CD alone should account for $30-$40 of the package.

Hey I like the band but I'm not a super familiar fan I admit more casual. But this seems utterly ridiculous to the point of being not sensible with a band where I think the members are reasonably sensible. Do we think they had any say in this or I'm not sure if I heard this correctly on another form I also attend They said their rights were sold recently and they may have had little to no say on what's included in the packaging so that it's just pure whoever holds the rights and makes the boxes being super greedy? I mean I thought a previous set or two I had read people commenting were underwhelmed with the content as far as the price are going along with it. Any thoughts I'm why the price is so ridiculous compared to what you get yet again?

Out in April!

Is it just me, or are the posters and photos etc kinda silly? I guess if I was 13 and gonna stick them on my bedroom wall, sure. But pretty sure my wife would veto that. I doubt anyone with the $$$ to buy a $200 box set is gonna get much use from them.

We're pretty silly people.Wife pre-ordered the very morning of the email announcement. Very much looking forward to getting this. Yup, expensive and silly....we've done it before, and we'll likely do it again. Loving the idea of the poster in our bedroom at 50 something years old too! But LOOK around. Build back better! Have a great day all! ~Mike
