It's been my experience that ALL SACD discs have a dedicated 2-channel SACD layer (not mix but layer). This is true even where an SACD may have an additional multi-channel SACD layer and/or CD (redbook) layer.
SACD/DVD-A and 2-channel recordings
I had wondered if it would ever be the case that only multichannel recordings would come out leaving us 2 channelers in the dust. I was told by a dealer friend of mine that Sony professed to always include a remastered 2-channel SACD layer with every SACD whether it is multichannel or not.
I am wondering if anyone else has heard this and whether this is also the case for DVD-A?
Thanks,
