Wow!  Puggo GRANDE was everything I'd hoped it would be!  The 16:9 snafu was easy to fix.  It seems a bit bass-ackward, but I set the player to display 4:3 with my Sanyo Z3000 1080p projector still set at "full" and it filled my 92" screen beautifully!  Puggo's right about the unique optical sound from 16mm film prints.  There's nothing like it.  Somebody may take the time to marry this version with a surround track, but it just wouldn't fit the picture.  It was so great not to be distracted with LFE during "I find your lack of faith disturbing" for instance!  The force rumble is there but it's more subtle, and to me, more effective.  My hat's off to Puggo for an awesome job!   Adywan worked wonders on his SW REVISITED, but in the future when I get a hankerin' for Episode IV, it'll be the Puggo GRAND that gets played!  A thousand thanks, Puggo!!!
