    I'm interested in picking up Frampton Comes Alive! on DVD-a myself. the album is a no brainer.. excellent live recording. I just hope that it sounds as good when remastered in DVD-a.

    Anyone buy the DVD-a of this?

    yep have a DVD-A I think it is a wonderful disc. If it matters there are several I have both the DVD-A and the SACD version and although i do like most of my SACD's the disc's i have both of the DVD-A sounds better to my ears. I can't explain it even my Elton John which is outstanding in SACD the Yellow Brick Road DVD-A verison still is a smidgen better sounding and like I have said many times here his SACD's are fabulous.
