Wow! I am truly surprised about this. It's good to have another "brand" have a "universal" player.

Hey Sony, start making (again) automobile dvd-audio and sacd head units too.
My marketing consultation fee is 10% Sony so you now owe me $1 million from all the units you will sell.

Sadly, they don't support mch analog outputs.
it's DEFINITELY the end of the world!!!
"all" we need now is for Sony to start doing Surround SACDs again and...
pah, I knew DVD-A would come out tops in the end.. even if Warners can't be doing with their own format anymore and just do DVD-V for big name titles like Tusk and Mirage, Sony are now supporting "the enemy" DVD-Audio..!! It's DVD-A(rmageddon) as we know it..!! :yikes

Nah. It's easy to support your enemy when he is dead.
Why would Sony support a format they consider dead on their fancy new cutting edge machine..

But will it play the CD side of a dualdisc.......that is the question?
If you scroll down to the May 5 post:
"The Sony UHP-H1 specifications include support for Blu-ray Disc, 3D BD, DVD-A/V, SACD, CD, DSD (DSDIFF/DSF), FLAC, ALAC, AIFF, HEAAC v.1 / v.2 / level 2, MP3, LDAC, DLNA and PlayStationNow. Sony's own page even lists the two separate DVD logos, to eliminate any possible doubt."
Is there any machine known to man that will play those non-conformist rebels..!?! :yikes
Oh that's a very impressive spec.!
Ralph was only joking about DualDisc, since they were inherently thicker discs than CDs or DVDs and so were rather notorious for compatibility issues with some players, especially slot loaders, back in the day.. in addition to which, the CD side of a DualDisc does not necessarily conform to the Redbook specification.. a bit of a mess of a format, that could have been quite good if handled differently/properly, imho..

Actually, my OPPO BDP~105 does but my two Meridians [800/808] will NOT. Thankfully, NO problem playing the DVD side on ALL players and of course in SONY's 'enhanced' stereo [16/48].
SONY gave up SACD for the dualdisc? What were they thinking?
ah, then there is hope for this new Sony after all..! :banana:
those Oppo's huh, they're the disc spinning equivalent of the Swiss Army Knife eh Ralph..!

To accommodate purchasers that own DVD-A without encouraging the now-retired commercial backers of DVD-A.

Surprisingly, for a supposedly DEAD format, there are still quite a few MLP DVD~As released to this day....mostly in the prog rock genre.
