If you include DVD Audio (typically better sound that SACD, IMHO)

They all sound good whether DVD-A or SACD. My favorite DVD-As are Fleetwood Macs Rumours and Olivia Newton Johns Journey Live.Marantz AV-7705 PrePro, Classé 5 channel 200wpc Amp, Oppo 103 BluRay, Rotel RCD-1072 CDP, Sony XBR-49X800E TV, Polk S60 Main Speakers, Polk ES30 Center Channel, Polk S15 Surround Speakers SVS SB12-NSD x2

I tend to agree Cathy. I have several that I have both the SACD and DVD-A copy. Some of the DVD-A copies do sound better to my ears. Both copies of Fleetwood Mac's are incredibly well done...
My personal favorite in my DVD-A collection is Queensryche's Empire it is just super. I have an Alice in Chains best of I really wanted to be good but they put way too much bass in it. I was super disappointed. All in all i have about 25 DVD-A disc's. I personally never seen or knew that Alison Krauss ever had made that in DVD-A. -
The Alison Krauss is an SACD. This confusion is a remnant of my error in the SACD thread, of posting a great sounding SACD (Alison Krauss), and two great sounding DVD Audios (BB King/Clapton and Fagen).
Sorry again for the confusion. If I could edit my post I would."Conservative Libertarians love the country, progressive leftists love the government." - Andrew Wilkow
