I cannot believe until someone can compare the UK and US version.
I don`t think so. That`s a joke. If there were differences between the continental versions I would eat a broomstick.
Hi, just made the experiment switching from, LPCM to DTS-HD and to my surprise the bass is more prominent in DTS and there's much more activity in the subwoofer. In general I use to like more LPCM, but so far I'm liking more DTS-HD. Can anybody give it a try and tell me it's not only my imagination?
@atrocity hi, unfortunately I can't because I don't have a blu-ray reader on my laptop
maybe someone else in the forum can help...
Strange, indeed. I'm curious, too....But now that I see what I've written I'm curious why the lower sampling rate option is that one that's losslessly compressed. Seems like it would make more sense to shrink the 96k version...or maybe it would be a wash in the end.

I found the same thing. After listening for a while I found I preferred the LPCM clarity. It does beg to be cranked though.
I find all these reviews quite interesting. I wonder how much of the differing views of the release are due to the equipment used in playback and perhaps more importantly, the room. Hmmmmm....

I don't know if it has a bearing on the fidelity of the album, but I read a fascinating interview in either Mix or Tape OP with a guy who combs through old tape archives looking for outtakes to release. He gave an example of things that surprise him, that Yes recorded live with everyone playing at once and The Ramones did it the isolated way drums, guitar etc. separately. One would think it would be the other way around. I would think Nonsuch was done the separate way as well. ( don't mean that the instruments weren't on separate tracks for Yes, but perhaps there was more bleed and phase cancellation. )
I had a similar experience. It turned out that my onkyo 875 was defaulting to direct for LPCM but not for DTS. The bass was more pronunced on the DTS until I removed the direct setting, after which they sounded the same. The 875 was obviously increasing the output to the sub and it sounded better to me.Hi, just made the experiment switching from, LPCM to DTS-HD and to my surprise the bass is more prominent in DTS and there's much more activity in the subwoofer.
