Alfred Hitchcock Collection Box in 2012! (2 Viewers)

[Moe Dickstein]

It's not a deal-breaker for me, but it's very disappointing.

Considering how that track sounds, lossless isn't going to help it much. The only thing I can't deal with on the surround mix is the off-sounding foley, which we can blame Uni for being so... up front. It's a hard choice which to listen but I usually go for the mono, even though the music is glorious in stereo. The dream would be if they did a "theatrical mix" and a "historical mix" where things were dialed to match the mono balances on the 5.1 which would be possible but won't happen.

Interesting. I've been very happy with the audio mixes on the Hitchcock blu rays that have been released thus far. Rebecca, Spellbound, North By Northwest, etc..
I'm so excited about this new set!
