Topic - Sony-BMG DualDiscs are 48khz, 16 bit. Not 24. - Michi 21:41:35 02/11/05 (51)

Thanks for the heads-up. - briant6483 18:26:20 02/27/05 (0)

Same format as Sony uses as their "stereo" channels on their Music Videos.. - theaudiohiffle 10:24:50 02/12/05 (0)

Furthermore, the 48/16 tracks are hard limited to a max of -6dB, unlike the 44.1/16 CDDA tracks. So, - Michi 01:33:41 02/12/05 (17)

Thanks for the info - Max 14:05:52 02/12/05 (0)

That's seriously ugly - unaffiliated 09:41:54 02/12/05 (5)

The target market for DualDisc won't care - racerguy 10:23:00 02/12/05 (2)

Could you be confusing "clipping" and "limiting"? - Duilawyer 09:05:15 02/12/05 (2)

Well, but I didn't do anything to those, DUI. - Michi 09:15:27 02/12/05 (0)

So you do figure it's intentional? (Re: the guy on the forum Frank linked to.) - Michi 02:15:08 02/12/05 (4)

Re: So you do figure it's intentional? (Re: the guy on the forum Frank linked to.) - Christine Tham 02:43:17 02/12/05 (3)

Ok, so it's intentional, but what's the reasoning behind it? - Michi 02:52:14 02/12/05 (2)

hard to say ... - Christine Tham 03:03:49 02/12/05 (1)

Your topic title is misleading . Usher-8701 is a Sony BMG DualDisc with DVD-A at 48/24 . LOL ( nt ) - ZS KEKL 22:33:01 02/11/05 (23)

And all of the rest, are NOT. So your entire RANT was misleading. - Michi 22:33:59 02/11/05 (10)

Learn to read. I said that Sony BMG has officially released its first DualDisc with DVD-A, and it has with Usher-8701... - ZS KEKL 23:08:33 02/11/05 (9)

I've never "cheer-led" anything, asshole. SACD or DVD-A. However your post right here, - Michi 23:14:00 02/11/05 (8)

Very unhappy SACD cheerleader, DualDisc has killed SACD at Sony Music, and I like that. SACD was DVD-A's competitor.... - ZS KEKL 23:38:18 02/11/05 (2)

These 16 bit releases have NOTHING to do with DVD-A. Can you explain how they -DO-? - Michi 23:40:14 02/11/05 (1)

Oh! And please link to a post where I'm "cheerleading" SACD. Thanks. - Michi 23:41:59 02/11/05 (0)

Let me REITERATE. My problem is with YOU. Not DVD-A. And that has NOTHING to do with SACD. - Michi 23:16:00 02/11/05 (4)

Some DualDisc do have DVD Audio content. - Frank.. 02:57:25 02/12/05 (3)

Frank, I certainly have a beef with ZS's behavior as well. - Michi 03:17:55 02/12/05 (2)

disappointing - i guess sony is scared about ripping (nt) - Christine Tham 21:54:13 02/11/05 (1)

Seems that way... It would make sense not to offer much higher rez than CD in that case... - Michi 21:59:17 02/11/05 (0)
