That DVD-A only has inaudible shortcomings - watermarking distortions, temporal distortions - whereas SACD has inaudible strengths - ultrasonic filtering of audible music, a mysterious relaxing effect, etc.? Isn't anyone on this board imaginative enough to counter this weakness? How about "Research has shown that listening to DVD-A increases your sex drive?" |

The same player's noise with a -50dB test signal. Notice the rise of the noiselevel. Where does that energy come from? Frank |

The only REAL shortcomings I've seen with DVD-A up to this point are lack of titles compared with SACD. |
How about well below 90 dB, Christine?, posted on January 30, 2003 at 12:03:50 | |

I have trouble following Frank's modulation argument. |

Frank, I'm pretty sure it is the same test signal JA uses for the linearity test. |
