Confusing question. A sacd player won't convert your pcm from your Njoe to dsd, there's no reason to use the Njoe as a transport for the internal dac of another player, when you can just use the transport and dac inherent in the superior player and be done with it. The redundency in such a setup won't make for the best sound, nor use of funds. Also, you won't be running a SACD player directly to an amp, unless you don't like your current speakers very much, as there is no volume control on any SACD player I know of.
The Trivista is leagues beyond the Ah Thjoeb, as it should be for 10x the cost. Try a Marantz 8260 or SA-14, or a Sony XA777ES, you'll sell your current player without any thought of a digital input, while gaining shelf space as well, not to mention the wonders of SACD.
Also, the Njoe isn't an tube output player, it has tubes for buffering, completely different layout.
i don't know if this is making much sense, if you're still confused feel free to email me at greatgoat1968@yahoo.com to discuss this further.
