Hey
I was listening to some of my concert dvd's (at least DD5.1, some DTS)the other day and I decided to put in my F-mac Rumors DVD-A disc. All I can say is WOW! dvd-a is amazing. The sound was just incredible. There was such a noticeable difference between even regular dvd's with DD or DTS never mind cd's. I know this has alot to do with how and/or who mixes the disc's
This is nothing that most people on this forum don't already know but I had to write this because I was playing this disc in a regular dvd player. Not a dvd-a player. I was listening to the dvd-video compatible dolby digital mix. Not the advanced resolution Multi-channel nor the advanced resolution stereo mix. I can only imagine what the actual dvd-a tracks sound like!
That being said..I can't wait to hear the better mixes. I already knew my next dvd player would be dvd-a & sacd compatible but this makes me want to go out and buy one this instant.
Why this format hasn't really caught on is beyond me!
