Yes. It’s a weird thing that seems to also be on B&R and the widescreen review articles for these and also Schumacher’s A Time to Kill and a few other releases of that era.
For some reason the matrix audio has slightly better low-end and is for lack of a better term warmer than the discrete. With forever I’ve done a load of comparisons, and despite being the same mix- the presentation is different. Essentially there’s a lot of ADR dialogue and the discrete version emphasizes this along with effects opposed to the matrix version which seems better integrated and better balanced also the low-end seems slightly more natural as opposed to just having the LFE effects.
Doing this unfortunately made me notice all of the problems in the dialogue track as there’s a lot of inherent distortion that’s present on every single video release and it’s also present to a slightly lesser degree on B&R.
