QQ DVD-Audio Demo/Promo/Sampler Gallery (with scans)

All songs on this sampler dated 2000 or older, so I'm assuming this came out in 2000. It is 96/24 DVD-A, each song is a 5.1 mix. No stereo tracks.
According to another QQ member, this originally came packaged with a DVD-A player.

I picked this sampler up from a Technics A-10 player in 2000. This thing was a beast of a player. Sorry about the quality of the front image, but the scanner didn't pick up the shiny logo.

D.A.M.N.! I do have a JVC dvd-a player and it didn't had this disc inside!!!!!!

That's a good one! THANKS!

Thanks everybody for sharing! This thread is the absolute height of surround geekery. I love it.

Here is the 2005 Acura TL Demo DVD-Audio disc. The 2004 Disc tracks were primarily from WB artists. The next year, these tracks were mostly UMG artists. Interesting to say the least!

Still, a much better disc than those that came with the 05 RL!

Wow, i didnt realize there are so many sampler DVD-A discs out there. Can anyone tell me where I can buy these? or get a copy of these? Some of those sampler discs look awesome. I have the sampler for TL and RDX. Thanks in advanced.

Your only shot is to watch eBay/Amazon, etc, and be on the lookout for these discs, as they do show up from time to time.

[beached]

Of course there is this one. OOps I will try again.

[jsulzinger]

One of these sold for a $1.98!

Damn. Missed that one. I've been looking for one of these at a reasonable price - or hoping it might show up in the usual places.

"I Will Play Music on My DVD Player" Immergent/Silverline 2001 Mine came from Tower and they pasted a sticker over the front cover. Perhaps one day, I'll post a pic. Aaron Neville, Glen Phillips, Mozart-LSO, Venice Underground, Bird 3 and Big Phat Band. One of the few Silverlines that's actually in REAL SURROUND. It has a great Stereo/5.1 comparison track. BREATHTAKING!!

The post at #4 Yes sampler

This came with my JVC xv-sa75gd dvd audio player, my 1st, bought new from
j&r. There were 2 in the carton with the player, the other is below this.
Not a bad deal, I still have it as backup. Ithink it was $180.00 then

Been looking for this for a long time, can anyone here help me out? I'm really only interested in the Blondie track. Thanks!

[bmoura]

I can't supply a photo but I can tell you that the Fly Like an Eagle track is not the DTS version. It sounds closer to the DD take. Monday Morning is the studio version. A slightly different mix than the stereo version.

That was my reaction as well. The 5.1 mix on the 2008 Acura Demo Disc is different than the DTS Music CD release.

[JonUrban]

Here's an interesting one I found on eBay recently. The first track from Miss E Elliot is an amazing surround showcase. I never got the DVD-A that it came from (So Addictive), but the surround mix on this track is one of the best I ever heard.

You should be able to buy "So Addictive" for less than $10, Jon. That particular track that you reference has a ton of bass!

Grab it while you can! I did!

NERD, Britney Spears, Missy Elliott, and Alicia Keys dvd-a's are all great mixes and have a few extras on the discs that dvd-a are known for. Collector items for sure!

Thanks quattroatl for the info. I picked it up. Shipping to Canada pushed the price up to $13 but any day I can get a dvd-a for that price is a good day indeed.

Thanks quattroatl! I did order one and got in sealed with the detail sticker for $10! 'preciate it.

Thanks to our good friend QQ Member Kal Rubinson from Stereophile, here are the scans for the 2001 WB/Reprise "DVD AUDIO SAMPLER"

I need to move all of these SACD samplers out of the DVD-A sampler thread. Give me a few and I'll get on it.

I have a bunch of SACD samplers I can scan as well. This is something I was going to get around to, ya know? When you get old, you forget stuff!

[Quad Linda]

Sorry for making this a catch-all. Will you be moving the Dolby Surround and DTS titles, too?

[JonUrban]

Here's the deal:

SACD thread:

http://www.quadraphonicquad.com/foru...y-(with-scans)

Surround Disc (Non-SACD/DVD-A) thread:

http://www.quadraphonicquad.com/foru...ampler-Gallery


Now everything has a place. QL: You'll have to extract your DTS disc scan from your SACD post and create a new post in the Surround Disc thread.

In a few days, I'm deleting all of these non-DVD-A Sampler related posts for future cleanliness!
