This is just a DVD-A-- the same as Atomhenge's more or less?

I have a few HQ Japanese and Chinese HQ CDs. There are many formats. They
sound a bit better. HDCD, XRCD. SHM, Blu-ray Spec (which is
not  actually  Blu-ray), LPCD, 20 bit CDs (which are not actually  20 bit).
They sound a bit better on a special player or ripped with the right
software but SACDs and DVD-A's are better as they are 24-bit.
