Better sound. 

In this moment I have a 5.1 audio setup, that includes front towers, center, small surrounds and a small sub.

I'm pretty happy with it, but as my amplifier has 9 channels amplification (+2 pre), I could get up to 11 speakers (plus sub/s) - DTS-HD MA or Dolby TrueHD 7ch + Audissey DSX/Dolby Pro-Logic IIx/z up to 11ch.

Thinking about adding some speakers to have a more "enveloping" surround - and use them if/when upgrading to a Dolby Atmos/DTS:X system.

But I also found a good deal, trading my complete system (and quite some €€€) for an Hi-End 5.0 system (plus a good center speaker that would be used as back center).

Now I'm torn... the Hi-End speakers have a lot of qualities: really great building quality, gread sound, beautiful pieces of art, very rare. Even if the price asked is not low in absolute term, relatively to the quality is a bargain. Big problem is that finding another pair of speakers of the same "family" or even brand, timbrically similar, is almost impossible, so most probably I'll be forced to stay with 5 speakers +1 back center for a while (or "forever").

Yet, with the money asked to get them I could get another six or eight speakers (of the same "family") and an Atmos amplifier (all used of course).

What to do, what to do...

The Seventh Seal (1957) Scandinavia DVD R2 [Svensk Filmindustri] synced to Criterion BD
This rare DVD have the sound better than Tartan DVD R2.
See: Bad Audio on Blu-ray review
More noise. More details. The Tartan DVD is more muffled.

In the Heat of the Night (1967) 40th Anniversary DVD sync to Criterion BD.

Better sound.

It just happen that I have all the Alien 40th Anniversary Shorts in ProRes 4:2:2 HQ - one 1080p, two 1152p, one 1800p and two 2160p - much better than the versions found online at low bitrate.

Is someone interested to get them in a single project, eventually cleaned up (and upscaled when needed to 3840x2160) released as H.264 (or H.265)?

Please delete thread

So the Region A / US "Bond 50" Blu-ray set contains "original mixes" on the older movies as Dolby Digital tracks.

Now I know there are few which are actually fold-downs of 5.1 remixes. Moonraker comes to mind.

Can anyone confirm exactly which of the earlier movies contain true original mono/stereo mixes?

Better bass. 

hi y'all!  I just joined the board after doing some searching inspired by a thread from "another board" about True Lies, the fantastic Arnie action movie from 1994.  I've always had a bit of an interest in fan edits and restorations for some of my favorite flicks, such as Dune, but the community here really takes it to a different level!  Hats off to all of you for your incredible work and contributions to entertainment!  

I hope that I'll be able to contribute back someday, but for now I'll just try not to make a goof of myself with silly questions and comments!  

Take care everyone!   

Hey everyone,

I've been having the roughest time with capturing DTS from WAVs. Although I've downloaded a Hex Editor to fix the DTS headers, I still have no idea what I'm doing.

If someone wants to fiddle around with these files, I would appreciate it:

The DTS LDs:

Casino
Daylight
Frighteners
Jackie Brown
Long Kiss Goodnight
Mortal Kombat
Schlinder's List

If you'd like to sync them, that'd be great. If you'd just like to send me back the "fixed" DTS file, that is all I would need. Feel free to PM me if you feel up to this mini-challenge.
