Hi, I'm new to the forum and am trying to wrap my brain around how this DVD-audio thing works.
It all started with the "Love" by The Beatles DVD-audio that I bought a couple weeks ago. Included was a regular CD and the DVD-audio disc. I played it on a Bose Lifestyle surround sound system that I bought about 4 years ago. The CD sounded great, but the DVD-audio sounded amazing, even hearing with just 5.1 or whatever it's called that I'm listening to on this system! And I understand after doing a little research that the DVD-audio would sound much better using a DVD audio player that could truly reproduce the sound that is on the disc.
So now my question: How do connect or what type of player do all of you recommend? I hate to get rid of the Bose since I've only had it a short time and it sounds great for movies and even regular CD's (at least it did until I found out about this). My thought is maybe a Denon DVD-audio player that is about $350 on amazon and connecting it to the optical input on the Bose and running it through the Bose system. Would that even work? Would I lose something in the sound doing it that way? Or am I completely on the wrong track here?
