The Best of the Doors

The Atmos 7.1 sounds excellent. I noticed some other reviews stating that it’s lacking. If you have the proper equipment and the setup is correct, this sounds flawless. Listening using Sony X800M2 Blu-Ray and a Onkyo TX RZ-720 receiver in 5.1.2 channel. Polk towers in the front, Polk center channel. Polk 12 inch subwoofer. Sony Dolby enabled front heights, and Sony 2 way bookshelves in the rear.

Excellent mixes and clarity in all formats. Recommend

I’m sorry but the Atmos and DTS 5.1 mixes are lacking. Vocals on the center speaker, music out of the front left and right speakers and very little coming from rear and ceiling speakers. This is audiophile Atmos/Surround sound? Not even close! To hear a true honest to gawd Atmos mix take a listen to Ken Scott’s Atmos mix of David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust blu-ray album or Alan Parsons surround mixes of the APP albums. But all is not lost because the DTS stereo mix on this album sounds excellent! Worth the $. Just not all that knocked out by the surround choices.

While I'll probably break down and acquire all the Doors albums in multichannel, this sounds great in DTS Master Audio.

The multi-channel is excellent. The best part is the 2 channel. It is clean, full, drum set is mic'd beuatifully. Morrison's voice is full, rich, clean. Nearly thrilling to listen to. It is amazing to hear it sound so good. Well worth the money. Keep in mind that it is audio only.

I am Super Fan of the Incredible SOUND of ATMOS. Sorry , Some People love the Horse and Buggy. Rather than the Ultimate Rich Sound of ATMOS.

Ho boy. I had previously purchased the 5.1 version of "L.A. Woman", and it's absolutely incredible! Great creative mix, very nice job matching the stereo instrument balances, good, spartan use of the LFE, exactly what you want.So I sprung on this Dolby Atmos + 5.1 + Stereo version of the "greatest hits". Well, damn.The Atmos mix - absolutely is awful.- Way way too LFE (subwoofer) heavy, often the bass guitar is ONLY going through the LFE, so it's muffled and super freakin' loud - a terrible mix. I think the mixer didn't calibrate the LFE or get "best practices" down before mixing. Or both.- Most songs are more or less a stereo mix with some center channel vocals and some over-the-top reverb in the surrounds and tops.The 5.1 fares better, but really only because the LFE is mixed better - and bass guitar/keyboard bass actually goes through the L/R speakers as well for a good frequency balance.If you're an audiophile looking for something like the LA Woman 5.1 mix, this isn't it.

Some of the 5.1 mixes sound downright weird. It's the older songs that didn't really translate well. The later tracks work better in this format.
