At first I was very skeptical, but now I am a believer. After listening to elrod-tom's dvd-a player at the Detroit meet and his ELP BSS DVD-A disc. I figured I would investigate DVD-A. So I sold some gear and got a Denon DVD-2900 universal disc palyer. The Denon player is good for DVD-A and SACD. The redbook is okay but not quite as good as my recently departed Rega Planet 2000.
I got to hand it to markl and elrod-tom, DVD-A is really a great medium. I have several DVD-A's. The one that blew me away was Eric Johnson's Ah Via Musicom. Listening to the CD version for the last 13 years I always thought that some of what he was doing was from one or two guitar tracks. DVD-A clued me into how many tracks he really has. Not only that but I can hear if he is using a different guitar, amps and effects. Incredible.
The other defining moment was listening to Queen's The Game. You can tell that Freddie's vocals and background vocals were recorded in different studios on some tracks. I heard guitar parts that I could never discern before.
I was skeptical because markl is so persuasive when he writes. But DVD-A is the real deal.
Thanks markl and elrod-tom.
