Best Video:

Kino Lorber 4K Blu-ray fixes stretched ratio problem

Best Audio:

MGM Letterbox LaserDisc PCM mono

Additional Info:

Kino Lorber 4K Blu-ray fixes ratio issue due to new scan but has no original audio, only remixes. The MGM and Shout! Factory Blu-ray use the same HD master with stretched image and horrible muffled processed to death mono. The PCM mono on the MGM letterbox LaserDisc reissue is the only untouched original mix audio and sounds incredible.

Trail of the Pink Panther (1982)

Leading role · Director: Blake Edwards

Best English-Friendly & Video:

Shout! Factory Blu-ray

Best Audio:

Shout! Factory Blu-ray or MGM DVD

Additional Info:

Shout! Factory uses MGM's HD master and mono mix which sounds similar to their 2004 DVD mono. They sound nearly identical aside from volume differences-except that the sound effects seem a bit flattened again on the DVD and this Blu-ray mono mastering seems to be EQ'd a bit differently.
