Checking the specs and pic of the link I sent above it shows outputs for Out#1 and Out#2 in toslink and coax. I'll need to see an owner's manual, but if this will carry SACD over the coax or toslink then I don't need to be concerned about having a TV on in otfrt to get the SACD dignal over HDMI....which a friend told me he could not do. Had to have TV on. So I guess that's a handshake issue.

Very few digital connections are approved for SACD, and they all include some form of copy protection (IEEE-1394, proprietary schemes like DenonLink, and HDMI being the best examples). _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93

nfaguys Desperado Registered: 04/09/05 Posts: 500 Loc: Maine	About carrying SACD digitally, gonk wrote proprietary schemes like DenonLink, and HDMI being the best examples). So if I understand it an HDMI connection will carry it. And again, I ask: Must the TV be turned on?

gonk Desperado Registered: 03/21/01 Posts: 14054 Loc: Memphis, TN USA	There are no guarantees. It can work, but it depends on how the player, receiver/processor, and display interact via HDCP. _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93
