      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    "Sin

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1-framed concert performance is slightly soft under the stage lighting, which mostly casts a blue hue upon Sinead and her band. Color saturation seems to be slightly weak, as the black background appears a bit milky. Occasional pixel breakup and aliasing problems are noticed, as well as a few edge halos. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    This 5.1 mix sounds more like a 4.1 mix due to minimal usage of the center channel. Fidelity is rather good for a live concert recording. Sinead

    Reason #56 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I am most interested in the formats (audio) of DVDs. I buy a DVD, and then it is re-introduced in a deluxe package some time later. I am not that interested in the extras, but the DVD is invariably upgraded in sound. This is usually DTS ES surround but in some cases DTS ES 6.1 (discrete). Most reviews (Home Theater, Stereophile Guide To Home Theater, Sound And Vision) do not address this situation. I am subscribing to Widescreen Review, hopefully, to solve this problem. I am looking forward to my first issue and a long relationship with your magazine.
