I've heard there's not much well recorded material available on DVD-A though. Anyone? Enjoy! - ------http://zeropointe.thecarversite.com----------------------http://carvermk2.com---------------

I also have Gaucho (Steely Dan) Tommy (The Who) and Love (The Beatles) on DVD-A. The Pop/Rock stuff sounds terrific, and some of the classical stuff sounds great too. Others less so. I think it has to do with the master and the mastering. But, because none of the stuff I have is done at 192kHZ (only 24/96), SACD is superior. I also have a couple of DTS CDs that sound pretty good (my favorite is The Police Every Breath You Take DTS CD. It should sound like it isn't there. There is a difference between hearing and listening...

An SACD can sound like crap if it's made from a bad master/source.
