Trying out the AC-3 RF on my new amp, sounds great. Love the ambient spaceship sounds on the rear surrounds.

Good Morning Audioboyz1973,

A cherished day indeed kind Sir,

Star Gate SQZ was perfect......... worth the wait and brought back the experience of purchasing every Laserdisc I own.

Thank you for your reply Friend as this is always a pleasure.

The patience encountered along the AV pastime journey has been one of endurance in many ways seen and within.

Kind Regards

:wave: :thumbup:

I probably watch Japanese pop music LDs more than any other genre. Last night Yumi Tanimura Feel Mie discs. The best is 1988-1991 just because it opens with my favorite Tanimura song, ひとつぶの涙 (hitotsubu no namida)

My favorite car chase is in "To Live and Die in L.A." maybe you can compare with Ronin car chase one day.

Spinning late night Escape from New York: Collector's Edition (1981) [ID2330SU]

White knuckled cult sci-fi/thriller. :thumbup:

Original Dolby Stereo mix way better than the DVD.

The little final fight between Snake and "the Duke" chapter 28, 31.59 where Snake grabs the gun from, the Duke, and throws it away below the framing has no sound to it. I should be hearing a metal like clanging sound on dusty gravel ground.

Blue Planet (1990) [LVD9214]


Two track versions to chose from.
PCM - sound effects and music
Analog - dialouge music and sound effects

The dynamic range is nice, thunderclaps are felt space shuttle launch thunders and roars skywards. Atmospheric sounds are crisp clear.

The hurricane storm effects on side 1, sounded fairly acoustically realistic.

The Omen Trilogy: Collector's Set

The transfers are a little soft but not bad over all. I hadn't seen any of the movies in many years. The Omen is very tense. Damian: Omen II was ok. Looking forward to watching the Final Conflict, which I haven't seen since it was released theatrically.

Def prefer this to the DVD and BD, the BD is much too dark and lacks detail. This is the most film like version to own I think.

The cover composition is the worst I've seen however. Even the unicorn BD cover is preferable!
