Hello,
That is good to hear the OEM equivalent bulbs work well. I have been looking at the A2000/2020/XBR1/XBR2 threads and honestly feel terrible for them. The number of Optical Block failures is stunning. Almost as bad as Xbox 360 failures.
Again, knock on wood, it would seem the A3000 generation rectified the vast majority of problems which plagued earlier iterations. So cruel that once they iron out the major stumbling blocks to LCOS/SXRD they abandon the technology aside from Front Projectors. I am planning on purchasing a 4K SXRD Projector in the next six months. I have had the opportunity to view a few FP SXRD setups and the results are stunning.
For as much as Sony is maligned, I have profound respect for their willingness to innovate. While SACD, Beta, Minidisc, and widespread adoption of SXRD did not materialize, at least they tried.
Cheers,
AD

Yep, just as I thought, the first two got by me. I saw the official Sony press release and it did list the lossless codecs under "Audio Output". But seeing as we're talking about Sony (*smirk*), I thought it best perhaps for me to not assume.
