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

I've got a Denon 1600 and only run it in STEREO...

I've found that on my display, I'll get PPCM or PPCM & DownMix and it's usually Group 1 and/or Group 2. Many DVD~A discs have a 5.1 mix only, that then 'folds down' or 'down mixes' to 2 channel.

Initially, I did hook my player up to the TV to set the Audio Menu Output to either Bitstream or LPCM, I can't recall. Then I hooked up my L/R analogue cables and the rest was pretty easy. There will always be some confusion about what Group is playing what on a DVD~A disc, but that's just the nature of the beast.

I don't know if the 2900 works exactly the same way, but I would think that most of your STEREO mixes, be they straight/pure two channel, or downmix/fold downs, will be Group 1 and/or Group 2.
