The tape loops appear in all 7 channels which is no mean feat of de-mixing given that they all appeared on a single track on the original 4 track tape. The most adventurous mix is reserved for the final track Tomorrow Never Knows. The sound effects make great use of the heights and rears with various effects and voices popping up everywhere. Got To Get You Into My Life makes good use of the surrounds for the brass, then things really start to improve with Yellow Submarine. A lot of what appears in the heights and more so the rears is a duplicate of the fronts, although quite often they are used for backing vocals. I'm listening on a 5.1.2 system so take that into account with these descriptions. The mix itself presents as mostly front-centric to my ears, most noteably the main band instruments rarely move away from front L+R. I can't detect any artifacts from the de-mixing technology, which is good. First up, this would have to be the clearest most accurate presentation of the album that I've heard. Just completed my first listen of Revolver. Atmos done well, not always has discreet placement of the music, vocals/instruments, but the envelope of sound can be a great experience

As Dave~~Wave said and I will add this Eat A Peach Atmos is definitely a keeper, even if you have the 5.1, I like both versions as they are different experiences. So it makes me wonder for Eat A Peach, I think the listening experience of the 5.1 SACD would be a little better as nothing is taken from it.ģ.

I know this because I turned off all my floor amps just leaving the heights on and that is what I heard.Ģ. but if you could imagine take a block of wood say 4" tall and trim 1" off the top and put that in the heights, what you get is a mirror image of the bottom surround, albeit weaker. The Dolby Atmos signal is very strong in the heights which is good. With the Atmos mix you get no better or worse than the 5.1. I think between the 5.1 SACD and this Atmos mix they are two different listens. First I must say, Mountain Jam is The Allman Brothers Band at perfection, a purely great piece of music.
