201/sacd/mda

I tried to play an SACD today through the 201/MDA but there was no sound. I disconnected the MDA and it worked. I currently have the MDA hooked up via RCA directly to the 201. Any advice?

MCD201 digital output to MDA1000, MDA1000 analog output to CD1 on your preamp.
MCD201 analog output to CD2 on your preamp.
Listen to Redbook via CD1, listen to SACD via CD2.

Graham is right on the money, as usual. :yes:

Thank You...

That's correct. If you are so inclined, feel free to do some comparisons of SACD through the MCD201 and the same CD (using the redbook layer) through the MDA1K.
