FYI
My Pioneer Elite DV38A will play the redbook part of a SACD hybrid just fine.

Will hybrid SACDs play in a DVD-A player??
For now, I'm done with this notion of "universal" players.. I don't want to compromise sound for universality (others might, I don't).. It seems to me, the DVD-A player will also function as a video player, so there are less reservations in my mind for upgrading to this format..even though I hate to have the TV hooked to the stereo...
The final question I have is about my dozen (or so) hybrid SACDs. I buy them. I like them.. but will they play in the DVD-A player? My current Pioneer DVD player spits them back in disgust as it reads that second layer...(I play them on my Sony CD-R machine..not the best).
Every "universal" player I read about seemed to leave me with questions... I'm considering going for the Arcam FMJ DV-89a.. Perhaps down the road I'll buy an SACD player, but for now I wonder about the above question... will my hybrid discs be read?? Anyone tried this??
