Hi Carl:
This is the description provided at the Acoustic Sounds website:
------------------------------------
This HDAD+ package contains two discs, one is a two-sided DVD-10 containing two channel 24 bit/192
kHz data and three-channel 24 bit/96 kHz data on one side, playable on DVD Audio players, and on the
other side two channel 24 bit 96 kHz data and three channel Dolby AC-3, playable on DVD video
players. The second disc included is a standard two-channel CD containing 16 bit/44.1 kHz data
playable on all CD and DVD players. Transferred directly from the original 35mm three-track film by
Bernie Grundman from Bernie Grundman Mastering and Len Horowitz from History of Recorded Sound at
Bernie Grundman Mastering, Hollywood.
-------------------------------------
None of my DVD players can do the 192/24 playback, but they all can do the 3-channel DVD-Audio
playback. Any DVD player should do the Dolby AC-3 playback and the second disc is a standard
2-channel Red Book CD. I assume the 3-2 mixing was done by Bernie Grundman with Mike Hobson
providing direction or input. I think 35mm playback was one Len Horowitz's Westrex machine, not sure
through what electronics. My guess is that they played the films at least twice because it seems a
lot to be cutting vinyl records and making digital masters at the same time.
