Jeez — never heard word one about this import.
Are these legitimate 5.1 mixes of original tracks?
Are they any good?

I have that one also; and no, sounds almost multi- channel mono to me, very disappointed
My Denon DVD-3910 wouldn’t even play the damn thing, it frooze up the player.
I did get it to play once I got the Oppo 205 after years of wondering how it sounded!

Even hesitated to run it through "Jack The Ripper" to check out the sound files, as it might hose it up.
