I've waded thru the 11 pages here and thought I'd ask a question in regards to hardware.
I'm currently doing multi-channel SACD on the cheap. A NAD (T-763) avr was given to me, I bought a used Sony SACD player, and I've got 4 EPI speakers (need a 5th). My limited understanding of SACD is that to do multi-channel I need to continue using analog out from the player to analog in on the amp ( or pre-amp). My question is in regards to back-up and/or upgrade equipment. For the player its obviously an Oppo player. But what about the Amp? I don't see much out there that will accept 5.1/5.0 analog input. SACD multi-channel will not output to digital is what I keep hearing. What would a modern SACD system look like. I plan on continuing to do this "on the cheap".
