What release versions of Ep 4-6 have the highest quality VQ/SQ? I don't care about content *gasp* as much as others do, but I want something that'll look good and sound good in my theater.

~Thanks

I thought they were all pretty good. Are you looking with something that has really good bass, or just all around good sound. But if you have a blu ray player, I would reccomend some other movies besides star wars, which isn't available in HD yet.

I actually wanted them for the movies, I just want the best quality star wars. I don't care who shot first...

But agreed, there is a lot better demo material out there.

I have this set and I think it looks and sounds pretty good. It's not HD, but until they release the complete star wars on Blu-Ray, it works for me!

Just saw this quote from the "editorial review" listed on Amazon:

"How Are the Picture and Sound?
Thanks to a new digital transfer, you've never seen C-3PO glow so golden, and Darth Vader's helmet is as black as the Dark Side.
In a word, spectacular. Thanks to a new digital transfer, you've never seen C-3PO glow so golden, and Darth Vader's helmet is as black as the Dark Side. And at the climactic scene of A New Hope, see if the Dolby 5.1 EX sound doesn't knock you back in your chair. Other audio options are Dolby 2.0 Surround in English, Spanish, and French. (Sorry, DTS fans, but previous Star Wars DVDs didn't have DTS either.) There have been a few quibbles with the audio on A New Hope, however. A few seconds of Peter Cushing's dialogue ("Then name the system!") are distorted, and the music (but not the sound effects) is reversed in the rear channels. For example, in the final scene, the brass is in the front right channel but the back left channel (from the viewer's perspective), and the strings are in the left front and back right. The result feels like the instruments are crossing through the viewer."

That's the one I was looking at...even though they don't make it any more. Time to go shopping...my 4 year old is dying to see these.

That’s the one I have also. Looks & sounds good. Now George just needs to stop being such a greedy _______, and make up for episodes 1-3 by releasing 4-6 on BD!
