Please post your thoughts and comments on this DTS CD.
As i remember it was the same, but try a search here, maybe someone confirmed it in the past.I've read that the DTS-CD mix is the same as the DTS track on the DVD-Video release of this title. Does anyone here have the two discs and can confirm that?
the PAL dvd version runs a bit faster.....The NTSC laserdisc/dvd is at normal speed....
This was one of my most anticipated DVD-A's.
What a let down. All the vocals are in the centre channel and lack any dimension.
I just loved the cd (and concert) and couldn't believe that their songs could sound better live than on the studio cd's.
That said, I thought this DVD-A could take it to ever a higher level, but it doesn't.
I'm not sure who mixed it, but if it's the same guy who designed my car stereo (Acura RDX), and who also produces The Eagle's, he should be ashamed.
I gave it a 10 even though it's 20-bit it's still only 44.1 kHz. I would have preferred 96 kHz but this was mixed by Elliot from the original master tapes and for a "CD" it sounds the best a "CD" could ever hope to sound.
I realize it's not an actual red book "CD" but this is how "CD's" should have been released from the beginning.
Here is an example of 44.1 kHz but oh how much better it is in MCH 5.1 on the same format as a CD.
In other words, why did they even release red book CD's in 44.1 kHz in the first place when they could have released them like this?
I realize your player needs a DTS decoder but that should have just been standard from the start and why is it not still standard now?
Also, confirmed it's just not my ears but the DR of this disc is spectacular:

The DVD is pretty cheap, but the DTS-CD is not. Is the DVD worth it or inferior somehow?
...the DTS DVD is well worth adding to your collection...
