Re: DVD-A surround mix question

>>On DVD-As with old, reissued music, do all DVD-As have a two channel mix?<<

No. Quite a few only have multi-channel tracks.

>>Is that a new two channel mix or can I find the original two channel mix?<<

Some discs with two-channel tracks are "new" versions, some are the original remastered. Many of the discs without two-channel tracks can be "down-mixed" to 2ch from the MC tracks by the player (assuming the player AND the disc support downmixing); however, this would of course be a "new" version, not the original 2ch. Some people find the downmixed versions to sound inferior to "real" 2ch tracks. Others have found them to sound just fine.
