Playing SACD on PS3 thats hooked to a YSP4000?
by cjbfla - 10/14/09 11:38 AMMy question is.
I have 60gb PS3 that is supposed to be able to play SACD's. I want to know if hooking the PS3 to a Yamaha YSP4000 sound bar via HDMI would generate good result when playing SACD's. Not only stereo L/R channels but the full 5.1 feeling.
Thanks

The sad story confirms why you are having problems. SACD looks to be 5 feet under...

Well for what I have heard that article is wrong. The reason why the writer cant play SACD on the PS3 is because he is using and optical connection to his A/V receiver. It has to be connected via HDMI. Now I dont have the YSP4000 yet thats why I am asking if it would work. The YSP4000 has HDMIs inputs.
Probably yes
