Anyone watched the extended version of ROTK yet? I got my copy tuesday off amazon.com. this is the first time I held out and didnt buy the regular version. Wow talk about a new reference disk for surround sound. The DTS-ES track is amazing. so many times I jumped from the soundtrack. I admit I had it cranked loud, at -10 volume
bass was phenomenal, in the one scene where gandalf is fighting the Nazgul and he blows up gandalfs stafff, the background was aleady loud with fighting and then the staff explodes out of the center channel. i guess wow is all i can say. this soundtrack has got to be the best reference out there right now. only complaint was that the video was a bit soft. a lot of it could be that most of the scenes were battle scenes and the dreary darkness of mordor.
