I always wonder what part of the audio is improved? I own the steelbook disc of this movie and IMO the bass is lacking. When Kscape does an audio/video update is there any chance they get a “better” version than the disc? In this case improvement in the LFE ?

Generally speaking, nobody is just sitting around tweaking these audio mixes over the years. Unless there's a new remix/master created, they'll be working from the same mix as the disc and streaming, and any differences SHOULD be minor and only due to what's introduced by the encoding processes for the different delivery platforms.

There may not be any audio improvements. MikeKobb recently said, “Video and audio improvements” message should really be “Video and/or audio improvements” — it’s a generic term used when a new version is published that doesn’t fit one of the more specific categories like “Added extras”.

Ty for the reply.
 
Jumanji (1995) HDR Version updated

Changes in this update:
  • Added audio track: English (PCM Stereo)
 
Superman was updated today. It sounds incredible. Big difference from previous audio track. I sampled a few minutes of it and it sounds almost as good as Dune.
 
For some reason I do not see a section of movies to pre order, at least not in the Canadian store. Has something changed, or is there just nothing out presently?

Interesting, I’ll rewatch this weekend. Anyone else have a similar experience after the movie update?

Well you are correct. Superman now sounds incredible. I’m sure the adjustments were with the SPL and the fact that the volume was low prior. However damn it sounds so dynamic and the LFE slams. Well done Kscape. Gotta love the ability to offer audio improvements.
