The laserdisc isn’t even perfect as some are making it out to be. The LD mono accidentally excludes a line of dialogue during the scene where they’re pulling the cage up from under the water. In the original version you were able to here Brody quietly say “Yeah”, but on the LD mono it was omitted. Note that the line is restored on the 2005 DVD and BD mono versions.

Yes this has been noted.

  1. When Quint and Brody bring up the wrecked remains of the shark cage, Brody lets out a subtle ‘yeah’. This is heard on all but the LD.

However aside from that one missing line everything that is ‘flawed’ with the other tracks is not so on the LD.

We need a Jaws equivalent of hairy_hen here to analyze all these mixes thoroughly.

I’ve been thinking of making another comparison video. Can someone rip the mono track from the BD and send it to me??

Someone make a fanedit making the perfect jaws version then

Clearly time has passed but did anybody ever send you this?

It sounds like perhaps fixing the sync error on the most recent Blu-ray might be the way to go. I’m considering it, but there are probably many more capable people out there who could do a better job. EDIT: having read more on this it actually seems like the 1997 LaserDisc with the missing line spliced in from the 2005 DVD might actually be the best shout here. I’d like to give that a bash if anybody is able to send sources (I have the 2012 BD but no LaserDisc or NTSC DVD).

No, no one sent me the track however I am waiting til the new UHD is released to hear if it’s any different than the mono on the regular BD (doubt it since it’s still being provided as a DTS Digital Surround 2.0 Mono). I don’t have a 4K player but hopefully someone who does and gets the new release will chime in.

I do, but I don’t have a 4K display so I am highly unlikely to buy it just to check that… I’m curious though and I’ve made significantly stupider purchasing decisions before, so you never know.

If you still want the 2012 BD 2.0 “mono” DTS, I’ll happily share. I’ve actually asked a related question over on The Other Forum which you might be in a position to answer, by the way… although the post I’m replying to here implies an answer, coincidentally or otherwise.

I mean it isn’t out yet so probably not, apart from reviewers like this one: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Jaws-4K-Blu-ray/265299/#Review

… except that he said that it has “DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0” when the box clearly states that it’s “DTS Digital Surround 2.0 Mono” so uh… hmm.

if anyone wants a download for the 4k jaws version, DM me, maybe someone can use it as a basis for the perfect jaws cut

Could you PM it to me as well as with the mono track from the UHD (if you have it)???

I watched mine the other night and the mono sounded excellent on the 4K UHD. It reminded me of the mono track from the Signature Collection laserdisc.

What about the examples in this video?? How did they sound on the UHD??

Quick comparisons as my computer is in a different room than my home theater. I can not hear the ‘Cassidy burp’ I can hear Brody’s yeah" it’s very subtle. Good Vimeo video on the comparisons.

Thank you. Is the engine explosion still in the wrong pitch?? No rush.

The engine explosion of the Orca sounds like its still the wrong pitch. Or should i say it sounds like it always has. Cant remember if that Vimeo vid has the explosion in it. I’ll check.

Yes, the explosion sounds like the LD.

I talk about the explosion at 12:47-14:33 of the comparison video.

To me it sounds does not sound like the LD and 2005 mono, its higher pitched.

is the 4K mono also noise reduced like the 2012 mono is? (which resulted in it being muffled)
or does it sound a lot more like the 2005 mono?

Higher pitched would make it equal to the 2012 mono. The LD and 2005 mono have the lower pitch.

Are the sound effects in the tiger shark scene still out of sync?

I corrected my post, that is what I meant. I should bring my phone or iPad into the theater when doing comparisons to your Vimeo vid. It would be easier for me. Lol.
