Just obtained Brothers and Arms and the only format that sounds proper out of my Pioneer DV-578A into my 2 channel system is the CD portion. It has a 5.1 MLP and DD version that, when output through 2 channel, voice output too low.

So, which DVD-As have good 2 channel performance? I have the Marvin Gaye Collection, that one qualifies, need others.

  The best I've found so far are Dire Straits Brothers in Arms and Donald Fagan Morph the Cat.

  Try to find a copy of The Eagles 'Hotel California' on DVD-A. The two channel mix is 24/192 and it sounds awesome. When compared to the regular CD version it sounds as if someone removed a bed sheet from over my speakers. If you like rock music and want a great 2-channel disk to show off your system this one is certainly worth searching for.

  Selecting MC versions for stereo playback will have that affect.

    Be careful with ebay and half.com. Sometimes they have a hirez product description like SACD or DVDA but its the regular CD. It's happened to me about 6 times.
    
    Ask the seller to verify the format for you first.

      ive never had it happen on dvd a sacd yes.I rarely buy from ebay only from large half.com sellers.its the small home based ones that dont use the upc codes.there are some that ebays fault.2 that I know of is 2 sacds peter framtons alive & destinys child called 5.1 survivor disc.even If you try destineys child super audio & not get it new from a large dealer you might end up with the regular cd.I finally found the sacd,well worth learning to find it.it has suurround on bootylicious that is unlike any other mch disc.it goes in circles from start to finish on that song
