Been wondering if there's a place I can listen to Spatial Audio versions of music. Does anyone know any places that support spatial audio playback?

You can often find torrents around for sacd's or dvdaudio - but there isn't any good place as far as I know

Not to mention a LOT of surround music is mixed terribly, with the exception of a few individuals. Steven wilson does amazing surround mixes, and has remixed several commercial releases

The quadraphonic mix of Dark Side of the Moon is one of the best multichannel compositions in existence.

Problem isn't the MIX, but the way the musicians intended to display the composition. The quadraphonic mix of Black Sabbaths Paranoid album sucks big time (but is also funny as hell).

The new The Cure album is well done in Dolby Atmos, but not really my taste in music.
