What do you think about the R30 Preview?  ;-)

It seems that someone is complaining one more time about the audio mix, if it's being advised to use the PCM stereo mode instead of the Dolby Digital 5.1 for the best sound effect ever.

Besides, it is said that the video quality turns not be that good in some parts of the entire video, specially on that shot of Neil where it can appreciated more by zooming the image...

To be honest with you, I'm definitely not going to care about this, or follow the advice, and I would rather wait until I get the DVD and have that first impression once I play it... Maybe that's his impression...

Same thing happened to the Rush In Rio live DVD set, and people overreacted about the poor audio mix and video quality when it is great... Just having the crowd on the back gives you that real feeling of being in a different environment, or culture. It just shows you how other people react to their idols when they have waited long enough to see them... It was like a miracle for them. besides, the band performed too well on that show, although there wasn't a soundcheck made before... And if anyone becomes anoyed by the loudness of the crowd at some point of the show, then the output level of the surround speakers can be lowered in order to appreciate more the music...

What's your opinion about this???

I agree with you, Tony R... DTS is even better for the home theater movie experience too...

To bad is not being considered ultimately for live DVD materials... Thus, between PCM Stereo mode and Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital is the one that makes things to sound much better and powerful, if that is what you are looking for...

In the end, let's pray for this new set to be the ultimate sound - video experience and that the DVD is superb, and fullfils many expectations...

I was so let down by the audio of Rush in Rio, especially the CD mix which is horrendous. The DvD is slightly better and to me sounds less muddy in stereo than 5.1.

I will gladly buy r30 as i am a sucker when it comes to bands like Rush, a classic band, who deserve my support after the joy they have given me over the years. However I am expecting an improvement in sound quality over RIR which to my ears was such an awful shame as this was a classic concert and one which deserved much better from the producers.

Has anyone else seen it?

Mine is not coming until December 1st. I order it from Amazon, and they are supposed to ship it by November 30th... So I still have to wait for a while... That sucks

This is what happens when anyone lives outside, in a country were great stuff comes later and in limited amounts... So, don't expect to find it here anyways...
