Not sure I can answer that but it does need to be decoded.

Needless to say, we would like to reproduce the SACD format as well as we possibly can.
There are a few possibilities.
1)Return the Sony and get a player with analog audio outputs in addition to HDMI.
2)Send it via HDMI to an AVR with DSD capability.
3)Get a dongle/convertor box that will accept the SACD signal in PCM form (a setting in the player) and extract that to analog and/or S/PDIF.
