Default Favorite Demo Disc For the 2013+ ML System

So for those of you who really appreciate your Mark Levinson systems do you have a favorite disc to demo it with? So far I've been happy with the Dire Straights Brothers in Arms SACD, I also enjoyed an old favorite in DVD-Audio Opaline by Dishwalla. So far these are my 2 favorite demo disc for home and my new LS460.

So chime in if you have any favorites too!

I do enjoy the ML system. There's nothing really bad. I play loads of The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Zappa, Cream, CSNY, etc. You know, all the old stuff! I still have yet to figure out how to play a DVD disk filled with mp3's.

Yeah I'm not exactly sure how the system can navigate to the menus on some of my discs. It's hit or miss what will actually load.

Interesting. I'll have to give an SACD a shot to see what happens.

You can't really throw a bunch of MP3's on a DVD per se. You have to create a DVD-A disc which I've come to hear is a hit or miss since some software seem to bork the creation of a DVD-A disc.

Well it looks as if I can't play SACDs, only the hybrid discs. Bummer. I wonder if the DVD-A is actually using the multi channel vs. the stereo tracks.
