: I have a 2108 with a Yamaha DSP-A1, and I experience occasional audio drop-outs with Dolby Digital, not analog. They're infrequent, maybe twice every couple of DVD plays. They last about half of a second. I think there may be faulty 2108s, and I got one of them. I haven't yet decided what to do. I may get a Sony 7700 when theyr'e available and give the 2108 to my nephew.

: : I currently ownt the Toshiba 2108 and was considering buying either the Sony DA 30ES or DA 50ES, but I read in the SMR/amps&receivers section that there were problems with this combination, ie. sound dropouts. I'd like to know if anyone else has this combo and had similar problems.

: : Is this an isolated problem with this dvd player/receiver combo or does it happen with other combo's?
From what I have heard this is not a DVD problem as much as a reciever selection
problem. Supposedly if you manually select Dolby digital instead of letting
the reciever autoselect it you will not have the dropouts. Areas like the layer
change on discs cause the reciever to have to reselect DD causing the dropout,
its worth the try.
