So did you guys ever come to a general consensus on whether the Dolby TrueHD or DTS sounded the best? Just curious.

Has anyone had a problem with the surround menu from this blu-ray disc? I finally got this today but it will not advance out of the stereo mode.
I have already tried two other blu-ray discs (with no problems) to eliminate system failure.
Any advice before I request a return label from Amazon would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert
Thanks Snood, I'll try again tommorow to see if my player will recognize the disc menu before I send it back.I do think some early reports from a couple people here had some disc issues

Hey RD1 - If Snood were you Snood would still request a replacement - they send one out replacement pronto and you have a month to return the other - who knows maybe the new disc works fine and has a better box or insides - Frankenstein the 2 \o/
Really shouldn't be that hard to navigate
I will do that later on if I still am having difficulties…

The 24/96 stereo on the Blu-ray is the vinyl cutting master, it’s not a big difference (no peak limiting) but it makes no sense why they wouldn’t have used this for the high rez digital downloads also from places like Qobuz and HD Tracks; at least they listened to the feedback regarding the more heavy handed mastering on Peppers.I haven't read through this whole thread so I'm not sure if this has been discussed before here (or elsewhere), but:
I've had the White Album SDE set for years, but only recently discovered that the stereo on the Blu-ray, while the same remix as on the CDs, is much more dynamic, not volume-crunched at all. Same with the mono mix on the Blu-ray, for that matter, which I believe is a direct transfer of the original mono mix. I ripped both the stereo and mono mixes from the Blu-ray and downsampled them to CD resolution, then put them on my phone for car and headphone listening, and they sound great.
The 5.1 mix is wonderful (and the only thing I usually listen to on the Blu-ray, which is why it took so long to discover this), but I do a lot of my music listening on headphones while out walking the dog, or while driving, so it's great to finally have fully-dynamic mixes of the White Album for those scenarios. While they're not brickwalled, I still find the CDs to be mastered too loud, on both this set and on the 2009 remixes.
