In Reply to: Q : Why are fans of The Donnas not having problems playing their DualDiscs? ... A : They are not SACD cheerleaders. ... posted by ZS KEKL on November 05, 2004 at 21:36:36:
... works fine in all of my players.You can try to pigeonhole me if you want. I buy whatever DVD-A titles I can get my hands on, and I don't think that my "little SACD world is going to collapse", either.
It's been several years now, and the sky has not yet fallen.
XA777ES. DV47Ai. Just got a Denon 3910.
I go "from board to board" because i'm interested in both formats and am not petty and partisan to the point where I can't enjoy hi-rez simply because it "isn't on my team".
I'm mostly an SACD person, but I have NOTHING bad to say about DVD-A.
And let me re-state:
The Donnas DualDisc works in: (CD side)
*My Sony XA777ES (sacd player)
*My Sony C333ES (sacd changer)
*My Sony CE775 (sacd changer)
*My Sony CDP-101 (first CD player ever released)
*My Sony 910 (mobile ES car unit)as well as: (both sides)
*My Pioneer DV47Ai.
*My Denon 3910.... I of course do not agree tha the dual disc is "much superior" or "clearly superior" to Hybrid SACD. Only you would make such a statement because you're fanatically married to a type of little shiny disc.
Do I think it's inferior? No, not at all. Re: Not one bit.
Which is better? I don't know, do you prefer to fly on an Airbus or a Boeing? Both are better than walking. A CD is the equivalent of walking.

for whatever reason it will not play for me in those same players.I have both the XA777ES and C333ES and the Donnas DualDisc will not play in either of those players. It is very curious as to why your copy plays in the same exact player where my disc will not play????
I wonder what gives??
I would love for this disc to play in my players, but after hearing the mechanical noises and the way the players acted after trying to play both the Donnas and Simple Plan DualDiscs, I am hesitant to keep trying.
Are there different pressing plants? Maybe we should compare this?The only identifying mark i can see on the pressing of the disc itself, is, between the band that says "DVD" and the hole, there is an imprint that says "M1S6". The spine simply says "The Donnas gold medal 83715-2 atlantic"
So, I'm not sure... I would go out and buy another one just to see if it varies, but you can't do that anymore, heh.
