Previously unreleased photos and music. The sound in Dolby Atmos is short of heaven. Again, not a Beattles fan, but the sound is incredible. Completely remastered from 8 track recording by some pretty well known engineers at Abbey Road Studios. A little too heavy on the bass and sounds I've never heard before on other masters..................

Arrived in two days flat via Prime. Came in bulletproof double box. It would even survive a Purolator delivery.
COT DAM!!
Addendum: After listening to all three modes, Dolby Atmos is by far the best, but even with the latest equipment, you are using source material that has degraded over time. Every time you play a tape, information deteriorates. That was one of the things Fleetwood Mac Rumours suffered from. Engineers on that remaster, had little to no choice but to use backups on some cuts. High frequencies like high hat and cymbals just sound like something coming out of a space ship exhaust pipe (can't think of anything else, atm).
Nothing beats a live performance, but when that's not possible.............................

Curious by your great review I had to click on the link... I'm honestly shocked they still make cassete's... I thought they stopped making those years ago lol
