Lots of info on the sound quality which is surprisingly good on this 2 part thread -

Well...I'll take the high road here...let's just say that a lot of the opinions from that forum don't really equal my own on sound quality...that's as diplomatic as I can be

Well, that's up to you, but Lucpac, a member there who is quite an authority on all things The Who has been contributing generously to that thread and has posted lots of good info on the mastering sources for much of the new comp. Believe me, he would have dismissed it right out of hand had it been another shoddy cheap-jack comp. There's some interesting things going on over at The Who camp lately, as in all the recent I-tunes and HDtracks additions with shockingly good sonics. Who fans all over are a-buzzin'. I also bought it and concur with the generally favorable opinions. It IS a comp though, so nobody is going to like every track or it's mastering, but all in all it's surprisingly good, plus it has the new song on it. It was on sale at Best Buy in a collector's box with a t-shirt for $9.99 the last few weeks so at that price it was a no-brainer for many of us that might not have picked it up. I'm actually very glad I did.

I'm really not familiar with that poster...and there are a few I trust over there on the non Hoffman titles..on any title that Hoffman has worked on there is zero chance of getting any accurate feedback...it's like a fan boy circus and Hoffman is the ringmaster..if there are some good sounding discs in the Who portfolio this is truly good news..thanks for your input...

The surround mix is good on that one? I had it on VHS back in the day but never got a DVD copy.
