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

[JerseyEd]

My copy from Bullmoose will arrive tomorrow. Hope the BR works on my OPPO-103.

Shows "arrived at P.O." here in town,.....mail lady comes around 3:30. Going to be a long 5 hours.

Pulled out my best vinyl copy and listening in "fake quad" right now just to pass the time.
"Because" is playing, which was never a favorite.........until "Love" came out and now I just love it. Hope this Album blows me away like that one did!

Listening for the first time right now!
Yeah.....what a great surround mix.
„I want you“ is stellar!

 

[d0zer]

Hey maybe hold onto that one; put it up for sale on eBay as a rare collectable and see if you get any wild ass offers!

That's not helping!!!

The Blu-Ray from my first set would not load at all in either of my players. I opened another one and that one did work fine. I've contacted Amazon about it and a replacement is on its way. I'll be sending that copy back.

I know some of you may have bought this as a Christmas present, but I think you may opt to open it and make sure the Blu-Ray disc works fine. Just a thought. Other that that, it's a great set.

Early reviews over at SHF are mixed. One person really hates it, a couple others are more positive. Guess I’ll let my own ears decide!

Remember over there mono is king and they don't like change.

I'm playing mine via the Sony X800 player....luckily all good.
So sorry that folk are having problems with their's....I know I would be totally gutted, having worked myself up into a lather, in anticipation.

Great it's on a natural loop...2nd listening.

YES..........USPS status update, Out for Delivery.
Think I'll go out and hunt the neighborhood for the mail lady

 

[halbroome]

Yikes, I've had to return two items to Amazon just the last week -- would hate to do it again!

(still waiting on the labels to arrive -- one was the wrong item, the other was missing a disc)

I'll be sure to save all packing materials / receipts!

 

[Strilo]

Don't make me share my entire White Album purchase/return ordeal. It was nuts.

 

[ar surround]

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!!

The fan-made quad of that song is outstanding, so I'm glad to see that you give the new release a big thumbs up...or is it hairs up...

Yes, it will have to be an early Christmas. Where is the QA/QC on this shit?

 

[jdholman]

For those waiting impatiently, Spotify has it up and running. No 5.1 or Atmos, but you can listen to the alternate takes and Demos

 

[mrcond]

Well a big brown truck just pulled up in front of my house! And away we go!

 

[Hamilton59]

Delivered, Front Door/Porch Text....
Agggh it's so close! and I'm at work still!
Yep may well have to cut out a little early today!

New headline...

Surround sound freaks mysteriously stalking USPS mail carriers
Mail clerks at USPS facilities claim they came in through the bathroom window

LOL

 

[IMachine]

Wow! Just ended my first run!
My mouth is open!
What an update to a mix.
It blows away many mixes Steven Wilson has done....I say that, because Steven always tried to hold the overall spirit of a recording.
But this mix is a true update.
So fat and warm and the rears are used so very thoughtful!
One of the best surround remixes I heard.
I know we are all to fast with winners, but this time it is so true.
I have a well treated room and it sounds...bombastic!

I'm simply hoping it's a rare lemon in the whole bunch. That happens. I doubt we're into Pink Floyd Blu-Ray jinx here. Like I said, all the other Blu-Ray worked. It was just the first one I picked.
