seeing that you continue to show your education level. We are talking about the CD side of DualDisc and it's issues playing in Sony DVD Players..."In addition, since the audio side of the DualDisc does not comply with Audio Compact Disc specifications, it may not be read by Sony DVD and CD players and drives."
I might add that Sony also has a huge market penetration in CD-ROM, DVD-ROM and car audio as well.
Dad:When you post a message that calls into question someone's educational level, it's a good idea to be sure that you haven't made any grammatical mistakes yourself.
"We are talking about the CD side of DualDisc and it's issues playing in Sony DVD Players."
"it's issues" should be "its issues".

. . but you preferred to "skip" instead. How sweet.

p.s. getting personal are we? Says something about you.
Just getting you back for the 'Kindergarden' incident!Masters in Computer Science / Info Technologies for me.
Don't let him scare you - he is a master fisherman - or better known as a Master Baiter:)

That's OK, he loves DualDisc too, know why, he gets to put it in both ways. Some people are just into good music and others are into whatever suits their fancy which is OK by me whatver they do in the privacy of their own equipmen:).
i gotta stay out of this one, seeing as i'm a dumb-ass college drop-out . . .
:-)
The truth is that Einstein got his undergraduate college degree in 1901 and his doctoral degree in 1905.
"Even though he loved academics, he disliked school and eventually dropped out of high school. Without a high school diploma, he had to take special exams to get into college. He failed the first set and had to re-take them. After graduation, he couldn't get a job anywhere. He was even rejected by the Swiss military because he had flat feet, but he eventually found a tutoring job and earned three francs an hour."
to say he was a drop-out, most people interpret this to mean that was his highest level of education...but technically you are correct.

That's a flaw in their player design.Frank

Why Sony has not manufactured players with full compatibility or 'universal players' as other manufactures have done to date. DVD-Audio was basically decided upon in early 1998 as per the Working Group 4 (WG-4). So we are discussing a standardized format (DVD-Audio) that has technically been relevant for over six years.Am not bashing DSD/SACD, yet one can only speculate why Sony (considered a large electronics manufacturer) does not sell units that playback a standardized high-resolution audio format (DVD-Audio) and, instead, play their own type of audio format (SACD).
The next step is DualDisc that also have a DVD-Audio side...
It is not taking sides of SACD versus DVD-Audio, it is having a manufacture not support a format that is a true standard for over 6 years.
Enjoy the Music,

SACD is made according to a standard specification, so are LPs, so are cassette tapes, and so are minidisksThey are all standard formats. The RIAA equalization curve has been an industry standard since 1954. AFAIK, Meridian is not supporting this standard format. One can only speculate why.
Which standard format? LP? Meridian has phono stage options.SA-CD? You can certainly take a stereo or multi-channel input into an appropriately equipped Meridian processor or receiver and make it look just like any other source.
If you mean disc players, that's another story, and that is their decision. Were they ever to make an SA-CD player, it would almost certainly grab the data off the disc and convert to PCM so that it could be handled by their DSPs...

Nevertheless, tunenut's point is valid - if you fault Sony for not making DVD-A capable players, you must also fault Arcam, Meridian, Rotel et al, for not making SACD-capable players. Both formats are considered to be industry standards.
Where have I faulted Sony for not making a DVD-A player in this discussion? I haven't.If you're trying to make a point, you might want to do so with someone else.
