The Beatles - Abbey Road 50th Anniversary (5.1 & Dolby Atmos mixes)

[François]

Just finished the album in atmos, have to admit I shed a tear. Beautiful

It’s on a loop! I mean, it’s how the blu-ray is authored…

 

[dr. simple]

There’s a (slightly) hidden video on the blu-ray, but it’s for Something…

Ah - yes. That’s it! Thanks for clarifying.

Just had my first listen, will definitely listen again this afternoon once I get free from work.

First impression is ---- HOLY CRAP, I just love this. Nearly every track had something in it that I hadn't heard so clearly before. The surrounds are used a lot for the backing vocals and instruments, and it's pronounced not muddled (voices are super clear and clean). Drums and bass are all there....turn it up. I heard the organ like never before, bubbles in the garden, the tamborine was tamborining so clearly, each guitar would come from different place on selected track-- ... and Her Majesty is a treat at the end. I haven't had time to look over the big book (she's so heavy).

And my lovely wife was listening to it with me while trying to do her work (her desk is in the man cave)... she approved, said that stereo just doesn't get it, she's definitely a quad girl.

BTW, I played this on my Oppo 205. It worked fine for me first time.

5.1 mix an easy 10

I listened to it a couple of times before commenting.

There are some gorgeous moments. Lots of them in fact. And all my favourite tracks are plain superb.

If I go to bed!!!

This is on repeat all night in Atmos!!

Have no fears folks.

This needs it's very own separate surround poll that starts from 10!!

Navigation for selecting 5.1 is mediocre. But worth the effort.

Ugh - my shipping says it's coming via DHL; and from prior experience DHL was slow as hell!

 

[beerking]

Well this old rough neck is only on track 4 and I have a tear of utter joy in my eye......

Same here, but for CDN $37.59 I'm willing to wait a few days...

I'll try not to go on too much, as I'm aware It's not fair on those still waiting, but I Want You is making the hairs on my back stand up!!
