Adding a SACD player

I want to add an Oppo universal player to my system which includes all Bel Canto electronics. This is strictly for sacds that for right now I play just listening to the redbook layer. My question is regarding the connection to my BC 3.5 DAC, which also doubles as my preamp. I'm confused as to whether I should use a digital or an analog connect. Will the sacd layer be passed thru using the digital or do I need to go the analog route. Also, which dac would actually be utilized, the dac in the Oppo or the BC dac. Thanks

Stan (Stringreen) ... please pull some of threads on this topic. I agree with you last post.

As of late, I have been buying so called "hi-rez" redbook CD, e.g., "Gold" quality, and have been quite surprised by just how satisfying a musical experience hi-rez redbook can provide. I also bought a batch of classical music redbook CDs from a member a couple of months ago. I don't think the CDs are "hi-rez" but sound pretty darn good anyway.
