RE: precursor to blu audio

Posted by cfraser on May 18, 2010 at 23:06:52:
Hmmm, sure wish that was 24/96 stereo. I always got/get annoyed when DVD-A is 24/48...sure it's "high resolution", but low bit-rate. I mean when we can already get 24/192 stereo tracks. I still mostly prefer to play the stereo tracks over the (lossless) surround tracks when I have a choice. A really good pop/rock surround mix that isn't gimmicky is still a rare thing IMO.
Do I need anything special/new to play 3.0 Blu?
I always thought Petty/Heartbreakers CDs sounded pretty good, certainly well above average for the "pop" genre. They have a certain clarity to them that I like.
