Hi all

Is there a way to get 2ch SACD to output through the digital outputs on these units. I want to feed it into a seperate DAC.

If not is there a way to rip the 2ch SACD layer to a HDD in FLAC format so that it can be streamed.

You can RIP the stereo layer to Flac, that is what I do with mine.

Not sure why you would want to use a different DAC other than the one in the 95, have you a better DAC in mind.

Hi michael

I want to get all my music on a NAS drive preferably, but it looks like SACD's are the only problem. It just saves buying new interconnects, if i can feed it through my DAC. I have the CA751 and suppose it should play through the HDMI although that doesn't sound as good as the analogue outputs

Hi,

I agree the Analogues should sound better, I currently use the HDMI for SACD not bought the other interconnects yet.

The stereo does go through the Analogue cables.

I use dbpoweramp to rip my CD's, it rips the SACD to 44Khz 24 bit, I am looking for something to rip the SACD layer myself.

Problem is computer CD / DVD drives do not support this, I did hear that the original Playstation could do this as long as it was on the early firmware.
