In Reply to: DVD to experience surround effects. Recommendations?? posted by Ran on January 25, 2000 at 18:27:34:
HiJust a quich response. Most DVDs coming out replicate stuff previously out on LD. Most of this was recorded in the 80's and is merely stereo with little pro logic and no DD I'm aware of. One recent DVD recording of Beethovens Solemnis is crap - wierd lighting effects have playetrs with green hair, the sound is mediocre & the performance uninspiring.
However some of these sound OK with "concert hall" type ambiance effects added.
Peace at AA

John, which ones are you talking about? The H. Von Karajan
series? I have his Dvorak:Symphony No.9,and his Vivaldi: The Four Seasons on dvd as well as laser. Although I find
myself watching/listening to the laser (it has a fuller,richer sound) instead of the dvd's, I wouldn't call these particular dvd's "crap" or unwatchable. Much to my surprise they sound better than I expected (using the PCM
tracks of course,not the data reduced,thin sounding DD5.1).
I noticed that if I set my Panasonic 120U for PCM it sounds better with music CDs than if I used bitstream as well.
