Warning: EMI Handel Fireworks/Water Music DVD-A

DVD-Audiobahn

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

This is another "non-standard" disc in terms of placement of audio tracks (if there is such a thing as a "standard" when it comes to DVD-A)
First of all, it's dual sided, and Side A is DVD-Video, NOT DVD-Audio, so don't make the mistake I did by just inserting the disc in and press Play. You will get Dolby Digital.
Side B has the DVD-Audio content. Curiously, Group 1 contains MLP 2.0 48/24 so by default if you press Play you will get stereo. The Quad mix (MLP 4.0 48/24) is in Group 2.
Prior to me getting the 7" LCD monitor I've always wondered why this disc sounded so horrible. Now I know - I have been playing the Dolby Digital content :-(
