I agree with you about the MDG and ARTS DVD-A's (especially the Baroque releases on ARTS), although the MDG's espouse that odd 2+2+2 speaker placement.As for Tacet, I don't know why I haven't ordered any their DVD-A's yet. I'll remedy that tomorrow - Thanks for the reminder!
Follow Ups:
Four of my Tacet favorites in DVD- audio are #110, Schubert String Sextet; #115 Beethoven Op 20; # 127 - Rachminoff, Tschaikovsky Piano Trio's; and $133; Schubert Octet in F. All their releases are of superb quality; it is the music itself in these that I particularly return to.
Thanks for the tip - I will order these! (I assume you meant the Schubert String Quintet?)
You are correct, their disc is #110, be sure to order the DVD-A version as it is also out in a CD version with the same catelogue number.
Although MDG has the unusual 2+2+2 speaker arrangement, they claim it is compatible with a 5.1 system. So that should not stop you from purchasing MDG.
I recently posted on the SACD forum how 2+2+2 works in a 5.1 setup. Here is the link
