I'm interested in the '11/02/1999' timestamp because the 1999 (1st) Warner DVD was (according to AMZ) released on '06/29/1999'. It's entirely possible there are silent switch-outs due to the many Kubrick collections (re-)released.

Anyone willing to help, I'm really interested in which LDs, DVDs, and Blu-Rays have:

  1. Directional sound/panning (This post might point out an example of the direction sound) 
  2. "I read you" line
  3. LFE channel active (if 5.1) (See this post)

Also, this post and this post , both from Spaced, shows covers.

Edit: The conversation @~24:45 is highly directional in the 1998 MGM DVD and not directional in the 2007 (3rd) Warner DVD. Specifically these lines:

- Good morning, sir.
- Good morning.
- We haven't seen you up here for a long time.
- No. Very nice to see you again.
- Did you have a pleasant flight, sir?
- Yes, very nice, thanks. 

Can anyone comment on the 1999 (1st) and 2001 (2nd) Warner DVD releases. Thanks.
