New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

>> . . . confirmed that Group 1 was MLP 5.1, Group 2 was DD 5.1, and Group 3 was MLP 2.0. There was no way (unlike on your player) I could have verified this without a video display. <<

That's strange. On my copy of the L'Estro Armonico disc Group 3 contains the hirez 2-ch LPCM mix, according to my player in "DVD Audio" mode. (My Denon's front LED does tell me LPCM/PPCM etc.)

Moreover, there appears to be no MLP 2-ch mix anywhere on the disc. (What would be the point anyway? -- since LPCM plays on every type of DVD player.)

>> The elusive second 2ch track turns out to be a separate LPCM 2.0 96/24 track encoded on the DVD-Video section of the disc <<

This does not appear to be "elusive" at all. My player only reports 'LPCM' for 2-ch. By the way, what do your TV menu options say? (Press "Top Menu" button). F.W.I.W. mine says:-

"1. MLP 24bit/96kHz"
"2. Stereo Linear PCM 24bit 96kHz"
"3. Dolby Digital 5.1"
"4. Credits"
