DVD Sound Versus CD Sound

I am kind of curious about CD sound versus that from DVDs. Not DVD Audio, but just regular DVD. I always see this sold as "CD quality sound." Which, of course, means nothing.

So can anyone tell me if the specification for the sound for regular DVDs, not DVD Audio, is the same as or better than the specification for CD audio?

I agree with you completely. I'm just dying waiting for a player which will play DVD, CD, DVD-Audio and SACD. I really wish Sony hadn't turned it into a format war. I really dislke them for that and won't buy their products because of it. I have a Pioneer 525 and I hear a LOT of movie soundtracks which are much better than the two channel I listen to. Much of this is due to the 525's poor performance with two channel music, but still it made me wonder.

Thanks, that was exactly what I was looking for!
