When I first started using the 563A, my multi-channel SACD’s were only playing in 2-channel mode via the analog outputs, which were all connected properly. I had to do some digging through what was to me a series of non-intuitive menus to find a setting that changes SACD playback from 2-channel to multi-channel. Once I made that change, viola! Perhaps you can also find this setting and change it without further description here, but if not, I’ll check back.
