Finally got a chance to watch/listen to the “Live in Japan DVD.” I agree that it looks and sounds better. On odd thing I noticed was that for me the stereo track sounded better than the 5.1 which is usually not the case for me. I seemed like on the DVD the soundstage just collapsed to the center speaker while on the stereo the imaging matched their positions on the stage. I double checked my settings and everything was set properly. I’ve only noticed a few 5.1 tracks like that and almost always concert DVD-As.
