I wanted to ask this on HeadWize just when it collapsed, so I'm finally returning to sanity here...
Where can I buy Digital Audio Disks's (if that's even official name)?
Those are DVD's containing 24-bit / 96-kHz music. I am not talking about DVD-A!
I found only one place using Google - although I found more than 10 reviews of some disks, but no one bothers to tell you where you can buy them. Directly from Chesky, for example? Well, the reviewers and Chesky's product numbers do not match and I'm not about to spend $$$ to find out AFTER I buy it...
If you have DVD player that can output 24/96 on digital out and nice DAC that can handle it, it's worth a try. As far as I understand, neither DVD-A nor SACD allow digital out in more than 16/44.
Btw if either of new formats become popular, it could spell doom to many high-end manufacturers that make separate components. They will now have to make complete systems, with drive, DAC and decoder all bundled together.
