I'm interested in what the 5.1 listeners think. I have read a few reviews from stereo listeners that say this album suffered badly from very harsh over-bright cymbals.
Does the 5.1 mix fair better in this respect? And also, on Burning Rope, are Phil's drums loud enough? They're almost non-existent in parts of the stereo mix.

* Incidentally, not one of my favourite albums, but it is one of the few that I do actually prefer the new mix/master to the old one, mainly because I always thought the original was poorly mixed (with weak drum sound). So even though for me the new one is far from perfect, it's still an improvement.
