The Dolby Atmos version instantly immerses the listener in the heart of the concert hall, faithfully recreating the surrounding audience atmosphere. The sound is more dynamic than in the stereo versions, injecting greater energy into the performance, particularly at higher volumes. The vocals and music remain primarily front-focused, while, in addition to the audience ambiance, certain tracks, such as High Hopes, feature occasional spatial effects that further enhance the immersive experience.

Whether listening with or without visuals, the Dolby Atmos version on the Blu-ray provides the most immersive experience of this concert. The listener is placed at the heart of the audience, enjoying a dynamic and detailed sound that surpasses the stereo version, which, despite its 24-bit/96 kHz format, remains limited in dynamic range. For those with a 5.1 system, the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 version in 24-bit/96 kHz also delivers an excellent rendition of the concert.
