Hey Everybody,
I borrowed a couple of SACD's from my buddy to check out the buzz with Multi-Channel Hi-Res. I have an Oppo 983 connected to a Yamaha Rx-v3800 via HDMI for DVD and Analog 2 ch. for CD.
I played the Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms 20th Ann. SACD in Multi-Channel and it was super fuzzy, especially the vocals. I switched to CD for 2 Ch. and it was fine - clear. Switched back to DVD for the Multi and it was really fuzzy, vol. at about -60 b/c it was so bad I didn't want to damage my tweeter.
Here's where it gets interesting. I played The Police - Every Breath You Take SACD, first in DVD for the Multi and it was clear as a bell. In fact, I could turn the volume up to about -38 on the Yammy. I also tried it in CD for the 2 Ch. and it was the same.
What is the deal???? My buddy has the oppo 83 and it plays fine on his. This also happens when I play a Linkin Park DVD-A I have - super fuzzy but not on a Bon Jovi DVD-A - clear as a bell.
I am so confused!!!!
Thanks,
Jeff
