MisterXDTV on BR shared with me this LD's AC-3 5.1 synced to UHD. It sounds... vicious. I'd be happy to share.

Speaking of, I remember seeing spectrograms of both the PCM 2.0 and AC-3 5.1 on this forum somewhere (can't find it now). IIRC the AC-3 had its high frequencies cut off at a much lower point than the PCM. I think I still prefer the AC-3 though. Wondering if anyone more knowledgable could explain why the apparent filtering didn't have too big of an effect.

I'd be very interested in the AC3 from the LD axeyou please.

I'm new here and only started syncing from raw captures so I don't have many OG tracks.

I have the raw 1998 THX DVD audio, which is apparently the exact same audio track as the LaserDisc AC3 5.1.
I can send it to you by request.
Anyways, can you please PM me this PCM 2.0 track for the UHD sync? And can you please do an additional sync to the Special Collector's Edition Fullscreen DVD (my preferred version)?

I took some spectrograms. The AC-3 5.1 track has a cutoff at ~14 kHz (due to AC-3 compression?), whereas the PCM 2.0 is full-range.

Can you please send me both the LPCM 2.0 and the AC-3 5.1 synced to the 4K remaster/UHD?
How does the 1998 DVD compare with the LaserDisc? And how do later remixes (DTS-HD MA 6.1+Dolby TrueHD 5.1 from the 2008 Blu-ray, Atmos from the UHD, and Spatial Audio from the Netflix stream) compare?
The Netflix stream is the 4K remaster but with the 100th Anniversary Paramount logo from the 3D version plastered in.
I hope someone can rip the EAC-3 2.0 stream of the Spatial Audio headphone mix from the Netflix stream, ‘cause I sure as hell can’t do it.

Does anyone have the 2.0 Mix from the 1998 DVD of Top Gun? The 2.0 Mix on the 2004 SCE DVD seems to be the original theatrical Dolby Mix, while the 2.0 mix from the 1995 Laserdisc seems to be remixed. The 1998 WS/FF (Open Matte) DVD is a port of the 1995 Laserdisc, from what I read.

I have it from a 2004 Fullscreen DVD Remux. But I need the DTS-ES 6.1 mix from that same 2004 DVD. Since the remux I have seems to not have the DTS-ES 6.1 mix. But it does have the Dolby EX 5.1 mix and the Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround mix.
