thanks for the info on your 5.1 mixing set-up. And yeah its hard to
even find DVD-A, I finally got a player that can read it, and software
players don't really sell it as a feature. Sooner or later I want to
pick up Amon Tobin's new album "Chaos Theory", I downloaded it from
emusic, but if I find the DVD-A surround version at the record store
it would be nice to hear the full mix. I found a few good surround
albums in the DTSonline store.
