Digital coax will not work. The specs for SACD do not allow it.

The only connection that will pass native/unchanged DSD signals is USB.

It is possible, however, to send a DSD signal via HDMI. The process is called DoP (which stands for DSD over PCM) and it requires some behind-the-curtain tweaking to allow the PCM container to transmit the DSD signal.

So basically USB or HDMI are your only options.
