  • QuestionCan you pass the raw DSD signal as a pass through via the hdmi or coax output to an external DAC?

    Asked by Johnzena.

    • Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, Johnzena. Your UBP-X700 Ultra HD Blu-ray Player can pass through the raw DSD signal (from SACDs or DSD files) via the HDMI OUT 2 (AUDIO ONLY) port, provided your external DAC supports DSD over HDMI. The Coaxial Output is limited to high-resolution PCM and compressed formats; DSD will be automatically converted to PCM for this connection. For the most reliable passthrough of DSD and the absolute best quality from all high-resolution audio formats, please ensure the following critical settings are configured: Digital Audio Output: Set to Auto. (Allows the player to negotiate the best possible format with your DAC.) DSD Output Mode: Set to Auto. (Enables DSD over HDMI passthrough.) BD Secondary Audio: Set to OFF. (Turning it OFF prevents the player from having to down-convert the high-resolution audio stream, ensuring the raw, unmodified, highest-quality signal is sent directly to your DAC.)
