New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

Apparently, your manufacturer is not as confident as you are

Some excepts from the Denon DualDisc FAQ, available on the Denon web site:

*** The non-DVD side of the “DualDisc” delivers the 2 channel recording; however it does not meet the Compact Disc Digital Audio Specification and therefore does not bear the CD logo. ***

*** The DVD video/audio contents on the DVD side of the “DualDisc" do not guarantee reproduction by Denon DVD players/changers and universal players. ***

*** Since the audio side of the DualDisc does not meet the Compact Disc Digital Audio specifications found in the industry “Redbook Standard”, the data constituting the audio portion of the disc may not be read by some CD players/changers and recorders, DVD players/changers, universal players and Super Audio CD players. Even though the audio side does not meet the Compact Disc Digital Audio specification, some Denon CD players/changers and recorders, DVD players/changers, universal players and Super Audio CD players may read and interpret the audio side of the disc while others may not. The non-DVD side (audio side) of a “DualDisc” will be not able to play in a slot-type DJ or car audio players. Also, the non DVD side of “DualDisc" may become scratched or abraded with attempted playback in slot-type CD players. ***

One thing I will grant you - Denon does not specifically prohibit you from playing your DualDiscs, nor are they threatening to void your warranty if you choose to do so. But then, I also don't see any specific confirmation that your player is "certified" to play DualDiscs. So in other words, it's entirely up to you.

As for your comments on my player, you are clueless as usual. The documentary evidence is quite conclusive - but if you choose to refuse to accept the facts then tough.
