But its still a frustrating sticking point for my brain, that I can’t roust DD and DTS out of the ‘Women on Top’ disc no matter what I’ve tried and its there somewhere, (unless their lying)!


Some DVD-A Players are a little loopy in dealing with this...IS it possibly a double sided disc? A lot of the DVD-A that I have are double sided, with the Dolby Digital/DTS versions on one side, and the DVD-A on the other. (just like the DVD-Videos that have the Pan and Scan on one side, and the full version of the film on the other side.) If the disc is double sided, flip it over and maybe this will solve the problem.

I need to hunt up ‘Blue Man Group’ I have a feeling my husband would love that one.


Yes, this is an absolute MUST HAVE for me. IN fact a frind of mine cam into town this weekend. He got me into home theater by demoing his DVD player on day about two years ago when I took a trip to see a St. Paul Symphony concert. When he came up this weekend he was wondering about DVD-A/SACDand how they stacked up to CD (he was trying to figure out what the next step in his HT upgrade should be.)

Needless to say after Blue Man Group he was DVD-A all the way. His girlfriend jumped onboard the DVD-A bandwagon after I poped in Beethoven's 5th (Teldec label...you can find more info here http://www.daniel-barenboim.com/ ). She was blon away by the "you are there" feel to the disc...and we both felt that the SACD's felt like CD's with just a little more clarity, but nowhere near the presence of the DVD-A's.

Anyway, hope the info helps, and DEFINATLY pick up Blue Man Group.
