Topnotch BluRay Concert.....

My two reference BluRays for concerts are - RUSH, Snakes and Arrows and Heart, Live in Seattle. Audio and HD Video are outstanding on both.

Here are some Blu-rays that I use for reference discs, both audio and video.

Heart Live in Seattle, label is Image Entertainment. This concert is one of the rare 5.0 only DTS HD Master but believe me, it lacks no bass.

Rush Snakes and Arrows, label Anthem Entertainment. 5.1 DTS HD Master. Spectacular audio and video if you are a Rush fan.

Stevie Nicks Live, label Soundstage, 5.1 uncompressed PCM, awesome sound and video, good mix of Stevies's solo stuff and Fleetwood Mac favorites.

If any of the above artists appeal to you, I highly recommend you check these out.

We better add another - Eagle Farewell 1 Tour-Live from Melbourne, finally available on Blu-ray.

Just watched it last night in its entirety, all 30 tracks. Had seen it before on HD-DVD but that disc was lossy Dolby. This one is uncompressed DTS Master and I now have a new reference disc for multi-channel sound. Simply spectacular audio!

Having a dual purpose Music/HT system, every time I start thinking of replacing my multi-channel power amp with a better 2 channel amp because I seldom use more than 2 channels (occasional movie or concert), something like this disc comes around. And it reminds me just how good digital can be for music when done right.

Problem is there are just so few of them.
