Basically the short of it is the Elite DV45A does not play the Metallica black album DVD-A correctly. It does not output the center channel or the .1 (LFE). See the link below for full details. After checking connections, setup menus, the dealer's display, I can safely say that there is a problem with the DV45A and this disc. Now, I am interested to see how widespread this problem is. Does anyone else out there have the new Metallica DVD-A (black album) and the DV45A, or willing to buy the disc (on sale at BB for $14.99) to perform further unscientific testing? Any feedback or responses would be greatly appreciated. Who knows what DVD-A's in the future could be affected by this same issue. I already have my dealer going through their Pioneer channels for a possible firmware, or other, resolution. Also, another note, my unit and the dealer's display were both manufactured in July '02.
