Although digital in nature and thereby similar to DD/DTS, SACD is an entirely different creature. While receivers can decode DD/DTS via a digital feed, no receiver at this time can decode SACD (or DVD-Audio for that matter) from a digital feed. All SACD (& DVD-Audio) decoding must be done within the player and fed, in analog format, to the receiver via those cumbersome 6 cables.
