I hv a few concert bds .. namely Shakira, Hall n Oates, Barry Manilow, Kenny G, Chris Botti , David Foster n Celine Dion( oso a ttl called Corteo but tats not a concert per se..) n as a pckgd product CD is one fine production.. VDO is excellent n u hv to to be in awe of its sets/props.. All de rest is fine but no comparison to CD..

I do believe tat u mus be a fan to want to buy a live concert on media.. its definitely not sumtin tat u can learn to love, after multiple viewings or sumtin like tat..

Jus my 2 cts

Glad u enjoyed de recommendations..

I personally watchd Celine Dion - Vegas Concert in lossless odo.. didnt detect any obtrusive sound frm de surrnds .. mostly surr worked during de ambience parts of audience participation at end/beginnin of songs..

Cheers

MJ's This Is It now tops my list for audio in a concert bd, thou; officially 'this is it' isnt really a concert..

D

Hi..

Yes .. but for odo.. I didnt say de vdo is briliiant.. try it n get back to me on tis.. [ for vdo - its so so only - sligtly above avrg]

Odo is solid wif full use of surrounds n sub.. I dunno if its technical gimmickry at work but de odo is sublime wif none of dat bleedin ambience sound associated wif a wide open space concert - tis one sounds like its in a closed hall.. Like I said previously, its not really a concert..

My 2 cts

YMMV..

Listened to MJ's This Is It again last nite.. Didnt on de pj, jus listened thru de spkrs.. on de song The way u make me feel - the drums were everywhere ie one beat per spkr n it went all round 5 channels..
On most songs the mixing is surr heaven utilising full range sound frm all spkrs

D

I was on -15 on my 7002's dial .. wat is remarkable is tat de sound can literally pop out .. its prbbly de sound engineers trick but it sounds great..
O ya, a gud sub is a must to enjoy tis bd..

D

Hi,

I hv de local speedy version :

VDO is gud but I seem to hv a bit of a prblm wif its dts hd odo -- there dont seem to be vocals cuming frm de ctr channel.. note pls tat its quite hard to discern this as if u normally sit in d sweet spot, u prbbly would miss tis as vocals still emit thru de LR channels..
De only way I can force vocals thru de ctr is by using de pcm track n force dpl thru my 7002..

Worth notin is tat, at first I tot its a one off prblm wif my disc.. then I got hold of a BDR - china version n its exactly de same..

Other than tat, MB is s must hv if u like his kind of music..

Cheers

I read de excerpts of tat n it dont seem veri intrstng.. I guess if u r a Celine fan, than its okla..

I veri much doubt tis can beat her Las Vegas one..
D

Yup..

Sounds like heaven for fanboys/gals of Ms Dion..

I knw ppl like tis exist.. watch de sp features disc on d Las Vegas Concert n u wil c sum watch de concert like 20/30 times n mind u, d askin prc per entry is not cheap..

D

Actually..

Theres de Jonas Bros n Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus concerts which are both in 3D..

On another note ,



I chekd out de odo off d Police concert.. namely Wrapped ard ur finger n King of Pain.. n its veri gud .. odo is dlby truhd n its recorded hot..louder than normal.. bass is gud but cant beat MJ's Tis is it.. at least for d 2 songs tat I tried out..
