I picked this up this DVD at the Future Shop this evening. I am not sure why it was available early. Hopefully it is not the one that will be available next Tuesday. This one does not have DTS, only Dolby 5.1. I thought there was supposed to be a DTS stream? Anyway, it is the worse concert I have heard on DVD. It makes the Led Zeppelin set look like the finest example of live recording technique. Imagine standing in a hallway at the back of the auditorium listening to the concert and that is pretty well what you have here. Maybe I am exagerating but I have done everything to try to balance it. I think there is way too much crowd noise in the front and rears and Geddy Lee sounds way back in the mix. The rest of the instruments sound distant as well. I tried to adjust the center to bump Geddy in valume and this seemed to work somewhat but turning the center off entirely worked better. It mixed his voice into the main channels which increased it. I am not impressed. I will fool somemore with it tomorrow but at this point we still don't have a Live Rush concert on DVD. Who mixed this thing? I would like to put my hands around his neck and........
Also I don't usually have boomy bass but I had to put my sub level below 1/4 and even at that there was way too much bass. Something is seriously wrong with this.
