Hello,
I am looking for a DVD or Blu-ray which contains Stereomix of American Ninja 1 & 2. I know the US VHS contains Stereomix of both parts. Which DVD/BD does contain it and where can I find it? Everywhere I see there are only 2.0 Mono, for example BD released by Kino Lorber, or German BDs from Studiocanal.

Ninja 1: Mono is the original sound mix for this title. You should be good with any release.
Ninja 2: Stereo is the original sound mix for this title. Your best option is the 88 Films (UK) release.
I believe it may be out of print, so perhaps try eBay.

Both are still avaible at amazon UK. But coming from 88 Films, they are quite prices for BluRays.

Are you sure that the Mono track of Ninja 1 is original sound mix? Because there is Stereo track mix on US VHS (1st print), or it's specified incorrectly on US VHS? The German VHS contains also Stereo track mix.

Fairly positive. Have you actually heard this stereo mix?

The german vhs had a GERMAN stereo mix.
And, are you sure it is real stereo, and not just 2.0 mono, as on DVD and BD.
I would not trust people not to make the error, of calling a two stream technology stereo, even if both streams are identical.

The German VHS contains Hi-Fi Stereo, not Stereo.
