I guess I don't understand this Denon Link. How's that work? Digital only goes through your Optical or Coax or HDMI/DVI. The 6/7/8 channel direct audio connections are analogue cables...well at least they are on my HK.

The reason I ask, is my Oppo 970hd will not pass the SACD audio signals over the Optical or Coax outputs. Something to do with DRM, whatever that is. It will only pass SACD audio over the analogue or HDMI outputs.

Before I give Oppo a call, I want to make sure I'm comparing apples to apples with how you guys are doing things.
