Hello everyone.
Mostly a lurker here...
I have recently purchased my HT system and I am currently watching a lot of movies. I was watching "O Brother Where Art Thou" and there were a few scenes that blew me away sound-wise: The scene where the preacher was baptizing the people in the river to the sounds of the chorus and the scene with the three women washing clothes and the river while singing. I was very impressed how beautiful that these songs sounded in 5.1 and I was inspired to look into other DVD's where they are either live performances or the music is the main element of the DVD.
While I realize that "good music" is a very subjective thing, what DVD's do you own or have watched/heard that really impressed you with both the performance and the quality of sound that you could recommend to me? I do enjoy a pretty wide range of music from classic rock, punk, hard rock, pop, alternative, blues, even a little metal now and again. I was thinking along the lines of live performances, maybe a documentry of a band or artist which features studio or live performances, but my requirement is that it must be encoded in Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS.
Would "Hell Freezes Over" by The Eagles be a decent choice for my requirements?
Step up and help someone who is just discovering how cool that a decent HT system really is. :-D
I hope that I have inspired a lively discussion.
