Laserdisc Dynamics vs Blu Ray

Wow...
Have to say it.
No one else will so far-

Lush with all do respect from what i can gather :)
Your set-up was designed and engineered for LD!
Of course it sounds better!
Go update....now....don't sit on the floor lamenting over the past.
If you choose to continue this slippery slope do it privately.
Thank you.

Chaos,

With all do respect I have a higher end HT processor with all the latest codec's and a Blu Ray player and a growing collection of movies. I will continue to choose this 'slippery slope'...and this is an open forum, don't want to read it then DON'T.

You sound as ignorant as JOE PUBLIC who thinks CD sounds better then vinyl...don't like what I'm typing then please MOVE ON sir...feel free to stop reading and posting.

OK?.........Epic Fail response aside....

I openly apologize,
I had not realized you were Mark Levinson living in your bleeding edge technology fortress.

Let me guess next...You had Lloyd Walker make your Laser Disc player out of a sold piece of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn Titanium too?
Which Lloyd designed according to your personal schematic!

Unless you are replacing capacitors and diodes on a board level on your "higher end" video processor you are not impressing me with your vast beyond "JOE PUBLIC" knowledge.
Lets not get into a hardware pissing match here. LOL!

But seriously though everyone is trying to help you-
I started out very interested in this topic, but you killed it for me.

You are approaching this in an argumentative and one sided manner. If you want another perspective,(which I thought was your basic intention and goal when you started this thread),then you might want to "LISTEN" to what others are saying to you about the topic you choose to discuss.

Trying to convince others of your opinion with bullying and disregard for their opinion is unfounded and even more laughable is dismissing their opinion entirely. This is not what Audiogon is about.

I responded to you according to how you presented yourself on this thread. Which was one sided, low tech and living in the past.

You are true to form and I have not changed my opinion of you so far.
Codecs and a Blu-Ray player will not change that!

Chaos...I started this thread because I was shocked how LD beat DVD in sound quality alone. I will not disagree that BD is better in all aspects. You will notice that almost every person who has done a direct comparison between DVD and LD (same title) has mentioned the things I have. Some discs on LD will not be on BD for a very long time; Star Wars, Apocalypse Now, some older James Bond movies...

You come bursting on the scene with one post and attack me. Citing I'm living in the past, I should move on and get the latest technology...I have. You have no idea what gear I'm using but you mention all my gear is setup for the older technology. Then that I need help to boot. Then somehow mention how my response is an 'Epic Fail'...what would success have been? How can there be a fail and a success on an open forum?

It was never a pissing match...you came onto a thread I started. I notice you have no other threads attached to your handle. Perhaps I'm missing something. I've been on Audiogon for years and never had somebody belittle me. So please, like I said, move on. I'm not looking for help...I've been in this hobby enough to know what I hear. What I had originally started this thread for was to hear people's opinion's on direct comparisons between mixes. When those comparisons are made...it becomes a much more interesting discussion.

I'll join you on the slippery slope. I have a small collection of LD's vs. a large collection of DVD/BR, and while the visual feast of DVD/BR is outstanding, there is something inherently right about many of the LD's from a sound perspective. Not better, but maybe more natural.
