I've been researching DVD-A and SACD Uni players, I went ahead and bought a Keb Mo SACD for my friend who is setup now and a Robert Cray DVD-A for me when I get my uni player.

The other morning I popped the Cray disk in my Panosonic RV-31, and it's not a dedicated DVD-A player, but the DD or the DTS and my Sony STRDA3 sure decoded it and played 5.1 with no problem, and it sounded excellent!!

I guess I don't have a question, but I'm wondering if this DVD-A is just Dolby Digital and DTS, and the only thing industry had to do was make a hybrid disk that will decode?

Presto, you now have a new format DVD-A, so the players are the same just they just put music w/no video.

Oh, DVD-A's are 5 bucks cheaper than SACD, and remember you don't have to run 6 channels, just optical or coax.
