Sorry to ask this SACD question, but

What equipment do I need to play the Stereo layer on a  SACD at 176.4khz .  I have searched the forum for more than an hour and I'm stumped.  Lets say I have a https://www.crutchfield.com/p_022CD1000B/Yamaha-CD-S1000.html?search=sacd

Or a  https://www.crutchfield.com/p_033DCD1600/Denon-DCD-1600NE.html?search=sacd 


and I want to use a  Schitt Bifrost Multibit DAC,  https://www.schiit.com/products/bifrost instead of the internal DAC.  What else do I need?


What else do I need to play  SACD at 176.4khz 


Please don't flame me, I really am stumped.

Mahler..

My apologies!

Jim/melm.

Imho you should STILL be able to output the sacd layer over rca analog outputs.
Why does my old Pioneer manage the trick?
I don’t think you can do it with dsd but pcm?

When I get in going to play with my very old OPPO bdp80 and see if what shakes.

The new SimAudio Moon 390 DAC/Preamp/Network player also can take the DSD stream via HDMI. Feature wise it is an impressive unit.

This video explained that. I had to use my phone to play the link.

Straight from my OPPO menus.

Playback setup.... SACD priority ... Stereo

Audio format set up... SACD output ... Pcm.

Audio format set up ... Hdmi audio ... Off

I can play the sacd layer over rca analog outs.

Not sure what might be occurring with your OPPO?

SACDs are meant to be decoded internally by the player, just use the analog outs on the player over to your preamp and good to go.

According to the OP they cannot get any sound over the analog outputs, which is most peculiar.

Maybe my OPPO menu settings will help.
