And we listened to Dark Side of the Moon in 5.1 surround sound.
It was. So. Freaking. Awesome.
And I didn’t even have a chance to tune the system properly yet. That’ll wait a few weeks until I’m in the new house.
I’ve heard it said before, but it really was like listening to the album for the first time again. I know that SACDs seem to be fading in popularity, but DualDiscs (with the CD on one side and (usually) DVD-Audio 5.1 surroung on the other side) are growing in sales.
I know that the Talking Heads are redoing their entire catalogue in surround. I know that the Foo Fighters’ In Your Honor came out in DualDisc format. I wonder how soon REM or the Beatles albums come out in 5.1?
