DVD Reviews of RUSH: Snakes and Arrows Live [Blu-ray]

DVD Review: NOTE: There Are NO Audio Sync Problems On The Blu-Ray
Summary: 5 Stars

Just thought I'd write this to let potential buyers know that there are NO audio sync issues with this excellent Blu-Ray.

Audio sync is a new problem with LCD/Plasma TVs. This happens because of additional video processing that the TVs go through. So, if you are watching normal TV using the speakers on the television this isn't a problem as the internal audio is delayed to "catch up" with the picture.

Problems arise when you take the audio from the Blu-Ray player and hook it up to an A/V amplifier as the audio is then not delayed and is out-of-sync with the picture. I suspect this set-up is familiar to the people that have noticed the sync problems as it's apparent more with music than movies.

There are two solutions:
1. Take the audio feed from the TV to the A/V amp using phono connections, but you will only get a stereo or at best a pro logic signal (no DD or DTS)
or, 2. Check to see if your player has an "Audio Sync adjust" setting in the player's menu (I know most Sony players have this so I'm sure other manufacturers will too).

Hope this is of some help. The Rush disc is excellent and I wouldn't want people to be put off buying it if they thought there were going to be problems.

DVD Review: Amazing !
Summary: 5 Stars

By far the best concert Blu Ray I own; good camera work, great sound, and pretty much every Rush tune you could hope to see/hear. Highly recommended.

Summary: 5 Stars

What can I say...RUSH, one of the finest bands to ever exist. This concert video is in beautiful Blu-Ray HD, the sound quality is outstanding and all the guys are in top form. Simply awesome. I could not more highly recommend it for any RUSH fan and as a tool to recruit new ones! This disc has so very many tracks, both old and new, it was a truly great summary of their work to date...all 30+ years of it. BUY IT NOW.

Description of RUSH: Snakes and Arrows Live [Blu-ray]

Filmed over two performances in Rotterdam, Holland in October of 2007, Rush's new DVD Snakes & Arrows Live captures the legendary band in peak form, performing classic Rush material and nine new songs from their critically acclaimed 2007 CD Snakes & Arrows. Bonus footage of four songs added for their 2008 American tour, including "Ghost of a Chance," filmed here for the first time.

Since the release of their eponymous first LP in 1974, Rush has continually expanded the definition of "progressive power trio." Guitarist Alex Lifeson, bassist/keyboardist/vocalist Geddy Lee and drummer/lyricist Neil Peart combine dazzling virtuosity, laser-beam intensity and unbridled creativity to create a cohesive whole that's infinitely greater than its parts. The Toronto-based group has become one of Canada's leading exports, with a catalog of genre-defining releases including 2112, Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures, Vapour Trails and Snakes & Arrows and a live show which combines musicianship, showmanship and multi-media effects that engage all the senses. Following their previous best-selling DVDs Rush in Rio and R30, Snakes & Arrows Live presents a band not resting on its considerable laurels but still earning its reputation as one of the world's best live bands - one night at a time.
