Good shout. Have to get fancy headphones n see.
I'm not sure if you need fancy headphones. If you don't consider air pods fancy they work great.
but worth checking out Yield and No Code.

I second this. Listening with Airpods unlocked lots of things I’d never noticed across various albums.

exactly- it is research and discovery but I cant imagine these becoming preferred listening experiences

There is one for Gigaton. You have to search apple music for Gigaton. I know, I know...it's there in their albums, but...there are two versions (three, actually). The tour edition is the one that's in their albums. If you search for gigaton you will find the standard version and the dolby atmos version.

The albums mentioned still have a lossless Apple digital master.

We currently have seven of their albums now in Atmos, with only Vitalogy out of the first five missing out on a re-master.
Are they preferred listening experiences? That's up to the ears of the listener.
I would say, overall, I'm thrilled to have them to enjoy. It's merely a different experience and I welcome the opportunity.
It's not offered at a premium over the cost of the existing sub, and, the original mixes are still available to be enjoyed anytime.

I was just cracking wise, but now that I think about it, I did sample a few Lightning Bolt tracks in atmos a while back and thought that it actually sounded pretty good (relatively speaking)

finished yield - easily the best atmos listen thus far. exposes lots of little details without undermining the core integrity of the songs. push/pull may be the first song to potentially be improved this way - adds to the collapsing chaos of the song

ATY also particularly good.
layred eddie parts are interesting (usually not for the better, just interesting). they sound more like two separate singers rather than an extension of his range if that makes sense

so far Lightning Bolt (through MFS) sounds…good? your mileage may vary on the songs but the production is cleaner, drier, less sterile and without the shineless gloss. and less distracting separation

first real noticeable (distracting) difference. the volume gets dropped way down on mike’s sirens solo. its a good choice though. it was way too upfront (same with solos on sleeping by myself and yellow moon, so lets see where those end up)
i recently moved backspacer ahead of lightning bolt in my rankings. am i having second thoughts…?
