I had bought that EWF album in hopes it would have the quad mix on the 5.1 multichannel layer. I already had "Hot Buttered Soul" on a Fantasy CD but I would like to hear the SACD to make the comparision. Another MoFi favorite is "3rd Stage" by Boston.
2 - a small single pixel green line along the bottom of the screen I have the same issue with the 805 on standard video sources. But my TV underscans a bit anyway and I sit far back from it as to not see the line.
The reason it's quieter is because you're not listening to the 3 other channels. There is no 5.1 folddown stereo mix on the DVD-A. If you want stereo, the PCM tracks are your only choice.
I think every version of "Kind of Blue" released since the gold Mastersound CD have been speed corrected. Just ordered "Duke" by Genesis SACD/DVD, if it sounds as good as my vinyl, I'll be getting other selections.
