In Reply to: Nah. The Verance mark tends to 'sharpen' sound, add 'glare', not 'muffling'. It's probably on master posted by michi on May 15, 2003 at 11:47:12:
Eagles - Hotel California
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
The Doors - Rider on the StormI thought the slight sharpening of transients was because of the cheaper Pioneer DVD player's build-quality.
I recently got the first pressing Nightfly LP. I wanted the DVD-A for comparison, almost got it, but then I saw that the stereo track was re-mastered at only 48kHz. Is it still worth getting?
Follow Ups:
Jerome,The original recording was via the Soundstream process, which is 16-bit/50kHz.
What sampling rate would you rather they sampled to? 48kHz was the closest match.
I would have like them to upsample the stereo track to 192kHz. Or is that not the best option for sound quality reasons?BTW, are these titles watermarked?

There's little point to upsampling to 192k other than purely marketing .As far as knowing with absolute certainty which title is or isn't watermarked, I cannot say.
WB says they watermark every title in some fashion, but I have yet to hear it on my system.
Michi mentioned a while back that she could not detect any watermark on this Eagles title.
And I don't know if I should even post that. heh.
