Nah... That would throw out all of the other settings, and all of the sound fields would be off. Besides, my receiver comes with a mic and calibrates itself based on 6 minutes of test tones. It has proven to be MUCH more accurate than I could get by manual measurement.
Maybe on the re-re-re-re-re-release (all 6 episodes), they'll re-re-re-re-re-remaster the audio. =]

have you ever watched it (or any other DVD) with an HDMI connection?   
Saving Private Ryan is a TOTALLY different movie on an HDMI connected HD screen!
I disagree.
The PQ is a total reflection of the DVD player's ability (or inability) to upconvert to an HD signal.
99% of progressive DVD players only output at 480P. (dual scan 480 lines)
99% of upscaling DVD player runs a POS upscaling chip or bios.
The ones that have quality processors are mega dollars. (besides the original "un-patched" Zenith DVB-318 which upscaled via the Farouda through all 3 ports!)
Also depending on what type of HD TV you have you could be converting the signal 2-4 times before it reaches the screen even. Every time you convert it hurts the end PQ.

You could also check your system. If you have a separate reciever, you could set up the speaker distances differently. I had mine set wrong and when I adjusted them the voices were fine.
I have the original VHS tapes somewhere, I also have the remastered tapes. I have only Episode II on DVD, because I heard about said complete installment to go on sale.
The problems with ANH don't have anything to do with the original recording method. They are because of the piss poor remastering process. Watch the dvd and you'll understand.
