By the way, that piece of terse info from the FIIO site is wrong/out of date at least as far as the R9 is concerned (I don't think the K19 can possibly be worse!): today I got my Sony UBP-X800M2, connected its HDMI Audio to the HDMI in of my R9 and no problem at all decoding the DSD streams of...

Hi. I'm going your way (likewise have to handle only ~30 SACDs, etc) and totally agree. What would you recommend about feeding external power to the box (is the polarity and amperage clear?!?) vs hdmi power and about using I2S vs coax/optical? Thanks!

Yes, but too bad for the DSD decoding, I think it would be useful in some cases. Given the hardware, it would be feasible to implement it in a new firmware? Certainly the DACs themselves are ready, and they seem to generally care about DSD. I have quite a few rather rare physical SACDs and for...

Good points. By the way, the R9 too has got the rather rare HDMI-in useful together with Blu-ray players as music players: I had no idea before the K19 attracted my attention!?!

I guess the HDMIs imply it's also able to convert the DSD streams of SACDs? I just ordered a UBP-X800M2 ;)
