This is interesting, because most of the DVD sets I've acquired of older TV 
series have horrible audio, as originally mixed for two-inch speakers. The Dick 
van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore shows are ear splitting. Don't know if the sound 
improves in the later years. Some others, like Cheers, did go back to the 
original elements..the theme sounds great in stereo.

It appears they may have gone right back to the double system original masters, (separate audio magnetic and video film),  to produce these discs, (video quality is also exceptional).  I find myself appreciating this quality rather than following the episodes, which I've seen many times anyway.
