There was a discussion earlier about using outbound DACs for DSD/SACD playback and my understanding was you need some specific connectivity arrangements to make it work. Don't remember all the details but should be easy to dig out.
Using an ouboard DAC with SONY HAPZ1ES
I have a Sony HAPZ1ES, and want to try using an outboard DAC (using the USB). I was thinking about the Ayre Codex because it can decode both PCM and DSD, which are the files stored on tbe Sony. Anyone try this DAC with the Sony, or any other DACs? I was also thinking about the Border Patrol (I’m more of an analog guy, although tbe BP wont be able to play my DSD files. Not a huge deal.)
