same guys gave transformers video 8/10 and audio 10/10 and i thought transformers was flawless on both AQ and PQ.

Glad to hear because I just pre-ordered and I hate spending that kind of money on movies that are cr-p.

I'm def. glad to see the latest trend in Blu-ray quality. Warner aside, overall the quality of Blu-ray releases this year has been phenomenal.

This review has me wondering why the Transformers HD DVD had such amazing reviews for it's audio (it hangs with the best PCM/DTS MA soundtracks to date) and only being 1.5mbps DD... wow... Funny thing is, the Blu-ray with TrueHD seems to be under-hyped on these forums.. I wonder if this is some kinda issue Paramount has to work out? Maybe Paramount is using Dialog normalization. If you compare Warners '300' PCM to the Dialog normalized TrueHD you'll see it hurts the audio presentation... Not by much mind you but any alterations to lossless isn't actually 'lossless' if you ask me.. It should be the same as the master source, not altered.

I might have to watch this a few times just to take it in.

micks_address · 09-12-2008, 08:49 AM

xcntuatd77 · 09-12-2008, 10:33 AM

I deem it important and helpful if folks can communicate their experience with the audio on this BD. Please list what track, what player, and what amp you utilized when you watched this BD when you give your feedback on the audio.

alexakajeff · 09-12-2008, 05:15 PM

Iron Man is shipping to me and should be here today or tomorrow.

chriso_86 · 09-12-2008, 05:33 PM

bootstrapwill · 09-12-2008, 06:33 PM

GarettP · 09-12-2008, 06:36 PM

Cannot wait for this one, saw it at our Drive-In and the sound sucks, so I cannot wait to finally see it and hear it!
