Nope.

Here is the AnimeonDvd audio review:
Quote:Audio:
Sailor Moon is one of those shows where the Japanese producers never put much effort into making it look or sound very good, and this first season is presented entirely in a flat, monaural mix. For the majority of the episodes on this set, the audio approaches the quality of the audio on Pioneer?s Season 3 (S) and Season 4 (Super S) releases, which is to say, not that great, but passable.

For a handful of episodes, however, the audio is too low and muffled. These episodes sound as though they are playing in another room in the house. Fortunately, this problem is generally limited to the first half of the series, and the audio becomes more solid and consistent in the second half. For some episodes the problem is exclusive to the pre-episode prologues, and sound quality improves in the episode proper. Generally, the OP and the first ED songs are low and unpleasantly distorted. The second ED is much louder, with some clipping in the upper registers.

This is in no way a reference or archival quality release in terms of audio, but I suspect that ADV made do with the best elements they had available.

Check Amazon.com for a lot of customer reviews that were quite unhappy about this.
