SACD vs. DVDAUDIO

Hi everybody!
I was wondering if any sweet soul could explain 2 me the
difference between SACD & DVDAUDIO.
Is there a difference in sound on these 2 formats?
They both has the surround quality but is the 1 better than the other?

I'm VERY glad you asked! biggrin

The difference has less to do with the actual proprietary software and more to do with the database grafting that went on when SACD was still embryonic. In layman's terms that means the only discernible differance in sound you will register is on the lower end of the equalizer (359,000 herzowatts and lower).

If your asking for a recommendation for purchasing, I can't really say since my soundboard is wired directly through my buffer drive.
