    Recommendations for first SACD buy

    Stephen, the two SACD that I have been listening to the most are The Brandenburg Concertos conducted by Johannes Somary and Spyro Gyra, In Modern Times, both are Multi channell and both are Hybrids. The Spyro Gyra disc in my opinion is one of the best sounding Hi Rez disc I own. I own 50...

    "A Night At The Opera" DVD-A pushed back??

    Keith, I believe you can access the stereo track by selecting group 2 and then pressing audio. Group 1 is the DVD-A track and group 2 contains the DTS 5.1 and PCM Stereo tracks.

    "A Night At The Opera" DVD-A pushed back??

    Keith, I believe you are incorrect when you state that "there is no discrete stereo DVD-Audio track, just a fold-down of the 5.1-channel track". In the audio menu, you can chose between PCM Stereo 96/24, DTS 96/24 5.1 Digital Surround and MLP 5.1 Surround. As to the difference in sound...

    Please suggest some "latin" guitar.

    Try the FIM XRCD of Flamenco Passion by Gino D'Auri. This disc is exceptional even when compared SACD or DVD-A discs. More traditional than Al DiMeola or Gypsy Kings. [url=http://www.fimpression.com]

    Looking for alternate acoustic version of Sweet Home Alabama

    Good chance it is from Endangered Species. Its an all acoustic album of previously released material featuring Johnny Van Zandt on vocals. I highly reccomend this disc. You can find it at Compact Disc Connection. http://www.cdconnection.com/bin/nph-main/7EzNw6TOY2Tg.b

    using receiver DAC for SACD

    Thanks for the quick response to my question. I understand that DSD stream can not be processed by my receiver. What I should have asked; what happens to the DSD bitstream when I use Pro Logic II using the L & R analog outputs of the SACD player? By the way, I appreciate your unbiased posts...

    I have a Sony SCD-CE775 SACD player hooked up to an Onkyo TXDS797 receiver via the 5.1 inputs and the analog two channel inputs for the CD player and also digitally with an optical input. My receiver has 192/24 DAC for all channels. What happens to the signal if I listen to an SACD in Pro Logic...
