MattyO 62 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I'm going now, so that by the time I get this set it isn't completely ruined by this insufferable whinging. Far out! There's lots more I want to say, but I don't want to regret it later. I will be back, but right now I need a break from this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McClane 1 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Ahahah...I just started listening to the interviews and it sounded sooo familiar...guess what, it's the same interview of the 2003 Bonus DVD!!!Well at least there's something new towards the end...The rest of the set is just awesome, I'm still not completely realizing that this is all true...I dreamed this for so many years that it's so weird that it's finaly happened...listening expecially to Last Crusade...finally high quality music after many many years of listening the same music in low quality!!

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yeah, it depends. If you have absolute pitch, it would be an assault on the ears. Most people (myself included) don't.Not really, not to me, anyways. Though I can certainly detect the pitch issues ( I think it is needless to say that I found a certain package waiting for me at home), it really is not that bad. The actual sound quality of the Box Set is simply superb, as you have stated, and I am completely happy with my purchase. I would like to give my sympathies to those who must wait. And, Fraulein Lohner: the scores are not "unlistenable". Quite the contrary. Of course, my opinion may be influenced by the fact that I have never listened to these scores outside of their respected films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Well,it seems people who ordered the set in China get it faster than Canada . 2 weeks delay is totally unacceptable..but I'm putting my money on December 2I am inches away from canceling Amazon,ca and paying 10$ more to get it from SAE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManofDestiny 71 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 My set shipped!Greetings from Amazon.com. We thought you'd like to know that we shipped this portion ofyour order separately to give you quicker service. You won't be chargedany extra shipping fees, and the remainder of your order will follow assoon as those items become available. Item Subtotal: $41.99 Shipping and handling: $6.49 EB Pre-order Guarantee: $0.00 Total: $48.48Well,it seems people who ordered the set in China get it faster than Canada .If you are talking about me, than I have to say, I order the set from Amazon US, but not from China (in fact, Amazon China is not selling the set). Also, Hong Kong is an international city with really fast international shipping. My order from intrada, Varese, SAE, Amazon, England (My EL CID copy), or Japan usually takes only one week. However, if order ship to the China mainland, it would takes longer I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McClane 1 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Well at least there's something new towards the end...Which is ?The part referred to Crystal Skull...I didn't know that even a couple of tracks on Crystal Skull were expanded...or it's just on the boot (since it exceed the 80 minutes limit)? The sound quality is great, though.Even if I waited years for all of this, I'm too much curious and could resist and got the mp3s...it will help me untill I buy the actual box-set.

King Mark 3,631 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 KotCS is not expanded .It's only expanded if you put the extra tracks from the DVD previzOk ,anyone knows if SAE has the box IN STOCK ?..it would say on the website if they ran out, right?

mstrox 6,651 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Got this in the mail yesterday, and the first thing I listened to was "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." Sounds pretty good.

John Crichton 4 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 What a time this is. I'm listening to cues that I have been waiting for what seems like forever to have properly on CD, no bootleg or DVD rip, and I've only been a serious Williams fan since 2000.
