NEW Discovery: Getting the Oppo DSD Output to a Dac. Getting the Oppo DSD Output to a Dac. I’m no longer using a Preamp. So it’s been a long time since I have been able to play my SACD’s. I really didn’t want to pay for new digital downloads after paying so much for the many SACD’s that I curren…

samliu, Let us know what the seller has to say. I’ve got a board on the way too.

Great find Veneet! I picked one up to use with my OPPO BDP-95 which I am using as a transport into my DSJr. I have both coax and HDMI/I2S hooked up for comparison purposes.
