a light has died
5.1 is mixed with 6 different channels (1 centre, 2 front, 2 rear, 1 for low-frequency effects)
the question was: do u get the same experience with just two speakers.. well of course you dont, playing the 5.1 version on 2 speakers sounds shit, thats why they have the extra Stereo option.

Picked up my copy in town for a steal at 12. The 5.1 is awesome. You can hear lots of new things you wouldn't have noticed before on the original cd. As for just the audio cd, i'm not as impressed. I have yet to give it a proper listen but i haven't noticed too much of a difference from the original, but remember this is all on my initial listen of it. Me and my mates decided to dive in at the 5.1 end first!!

^ thats a really cool site dude thanks. im thinking about ordering from 194u.com
it only costs 7£ (delivered). but have u ordered from them before? it happends sometimes that you order from these sites that are selling cds really cheap, but you dont get your cd before 3 months or so

Just listened to the 5.1 mix, and it blew my mind. If someone would have said to me that Opeth re-recorded the whole album I would've believed it. It really sounds that different. I'll spend many, many hours listening to this. Congrats to Jens Bogren, this is a million times better than the surround mix for Ghost Reveries, right up there with Porcupine Tree's In Absentia when it comes to 5.1-awesomeness ... The packaging is great too, my only complaint would be that the live video of Face of Melinda is only in 2.0, but I'll forget about that as soon as the Roundhouse Tapes DVD is released ... = )
Thanks Mike and Opeth for releasing this, now go give My arms, your hearse the same treatment! = )

holy shit balls, if they re-did My Arms, Your Hearse that would be incredible. The bass is inaudible on that album and the drums sound fairly shitty as well. I'd love to hear Mendez just re-record the bass and do whatever they did for Still Life to the mix.

I also bought from 194u.com, but I only did it today and for the first time on this store. I hope that everything goes alright. If not I can call my opeth friends from this forum to knock them out!!

The new album art looks nice, but I think i'm always going to be way too attached to...well...everything....about the original. =D

went to JB Hi-Fi yesterday (Australia's major CD/DVD shop in case you didn't know) and was randomly looking through the metal section and there it was! Was shocked actually, I haven't been on this site for about 2 months so had no idea it would be out so soon!
Great price ($23.00),beautiful artwork and it sounds AWESOME.
Good work
