Multichannel SACD with computer as transport?

Sorry, you're wrong. We've been getting DSD information off of SACD for years now and providing download sites hi-rez files. DVD-A also. It's expensive, but it can be done.. both the stereo and multi-channel layer.

Crna39, I did say "average joe". But let's hear more about what you are doing.

Regards,

Every thread I've seen on this topic says it can't easily be done... meaning the encryption has not been broken. So yeah, electrical engineers with DSD chip knowledge and computer modding skills can get it. But there is no way I've heard of to just rip a SACD as you you would a CD/DVD/BD.

If this isn't true please post the link to the SACD ripper!

No... you can't "rip" an SACD like you can from a CD. But you can capture the DSD data stream from a transport.

If anyone wants to know, just email us.

If I remember correctly SACD has different capacity than CD.

It is protected from reading by 80 bit code and from writing by "pit width modulation" that SACD player is looking for.
