Can anyone tell me which version has the best audio quality? I had the DVD version from ten deluxe as well as the version that includes soundcheck.  Im just wondering if the RSD version is better or worse than these two? Out of the two I have I prefer the mix of DVD version.

    If I recall, could be wrong, but that copy that  surfaced with the soundcheck was a fan made remaster ( quite excellent ).  It was ao long ago I cannot recall the source...maybe PJ collectors has it,  or Gavins old page.  I would have to think the RSD is from the same source as the DVD since both  were official.

    DVD mix is my definitive version. Never heard the RSD vinyl but I can’t imagine it can be much better.

    I think the the source for the complete recording, is an old video tape.  I remember getting a copy of the video before hearing the audio rip.

    For my own personal use, I use a rip of the DVD, and tacked on RITFW from the complete version bootleg.  Noticeable drop in quality for the video sourced version.   It would of been awesome if they had included a FLAC version (instead of , or jointly with) the mp3 version with the RSD purchase.   I'm not a big fan of vinyl to digital rips, so the DVD rip seems to be the best digital copy for me.  I think the DVD has two audio tracks.  2.0 and 5.1.   I'm not actually sure which of mine is ripped from.  Probably the 2.0.
