For SACD only HDMI and multi-channel analog cables will work, much the same as advanced resolution DVD-Audio. You will also need to see the DVD-Audio symbol or SACD symbol on your player, otherwise with DVD-A you're probably listening to the Dolby Digital or DTS part of the disc.
I was unaware of the Denon link doing it too, that's good to know.

And many more.
Sometimes I use as first demo for SACD "virgins", the Henry Mancini Pink Panther theme
Their usual reaction is just: "Wow"

Yeah I've always gotten the same reaction too! Love it to pieces.
I'm interested in the Rolling Stones SACDs, particularly Hot Rocks, and Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell.
Can you shed any light on whether or not these are good purchases?
Also what would be a good Miles Davis SACD to start with?
I have Sting's Brand New Day on DTS-CD - do you know whether or not the DVD-A version is worth upgrading to?
