"Is it just me or does anyone else hear a major difference in the stereo mix on Live in Berlin vs Alive in Berlin?
I listened in headphones and the stereo mix on Live... sounds mono-like. I have tried the discs on both my blu ray and dvd player with same result. Not sure if I should return it or not.... My copy is made in the EU if that matters."
Damn it you're right - the PCM stereo track of LiB is in mono! Just compared several tracks vs AiB and the CDs, there's no question about it. (I still hadn't watched or listened to anything, otherwise I'd noticed a long time ago - is everyone else listening to 5.1 only?)
Of all issues with this release this may well be the worst, worthy a recall of the box set or at least offering everyone who bought it a replacement disc. Just can't believe it. Who's writing to Columbia?
Not only there is no Blu-ray in the #DepecheMode #LiveInBerlin box but the DVD is in mono! The release date should have been April 1st !!!
