Where To Get 5.1surround Sound Disc
That 5.1 demo CD that came with the RL is awesome...but after having gone into a few stores with no luck...you can either go to the "5point1" website that came with the CD or is there a better place or store like BestBuy to see a good selection. Surround sound is one of the things that make the RL one of a kind.

bestbuy should ahve a decent section of dvd-a or dts titles for you to choose from.
If you like Queen then the dvd-a version of "night at the opera" is good for surround effects.

I was at my local Best Buy recently and could only find a handful of DVD-A discs. I began looking for these a couple of years back when I got my TL, and it seems the shelf space for this technology has decreased over time.
After I bought the RL, it took me a long time to figure out which free disc I wanted from the 5.1 site. There just wasn't anything there that really interested me. Ended up getting Queen - The Game. Not complaining too much...free is free...just wish there was more of a commitment to these formats.

There's a lot of DVD-A available at musicdirect.com....

I can heartily reccommend the Blue Man Group's "Complex".... it's pretty impressive in DVD-A.
Also, if you're looking to be blown away like the well-recorded (but, really, boring) music on the Bose disc, look for recordings that are done in 96-bit. If they're in 48-bit, you don't get quite as much out of the DVD-A format, because the resolution on the recording isn't that much higher than CD-audio.

Two other sources I've seen mentioned here is buy.com and CD Universe. I haven't ordered from either, but do know they've been mentioned.

YMMV, but it's worth a try.
