Neither of the audio choices are stellar by any stretch of the imagination - but both are very different from each other and listening tests showed some people preferred one over the other and vice versa - so Silver Stallion encoded both of them and inserted them into the DVD. Note: the first 1 minute 50 seconds of audio source #2 is taken from audio source #1, so they will sound identical up to that point.
