  • 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.) We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

  • QuestionI recently purchased the Sony UBPX700U 4K player. The description says it's wireless connectivity is WIFI, but within the network settings it only shows 'wired' and there isn't an option for "Wireless setup" What am I overlooking?

  • QuestionDoes the UBP-X700U have WiFi connectivity? Best Buy website says yes but previous answers are conflicting on this point. Can Sony provide a definitive answer?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi there, The Sony UBP-X700U 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Player does not have built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. It connects to the internet strictly via a wired Ethernet connection (LAN terminal) only. The confusion likely stems from the fact that its predecessor, the UBP-X700, did include built-in Wi-Fi. The UBP-X700U is designed as a disc-focused player with mandatory wired internet for firmware updates but without the wireless streaming capability of some other models. Thanks for choosing Sony.
