Marantz DV8400 SACD Output


I'm trying to run my Marantz DV8400 into my Cambridge Audio Azur 851 player. I'm using the coaxial output from the Marantz into the Cambridge. I can only get audio if I set the Marantz SACD output to "CD layer". As far as I know the Cambridge will accept the higher output from the Marantz - but the display on the Cambridge only sees  44k. As soon as I change the setting on the Marantz to SACD the Cambridge can't find the signal. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

You would need to use the analog audio output connections not the digital output for SACD. You can connect both the digital and analog and switch between them use analog for the SACD and digital for redbook. See if you can hear a difference I never could on my Onkyo SACD player so I quit bothering and just listen to the redbook layer through digital. 
There are DACs that will accept the DSD input from SACDs, but I am not sure that the Marantz is capable of outputting DSD from it’s digital output.  I think you would need a different transport than the Marantz, and a different DAC than the Azur, which wouldn’t be able to accept it even if you could output the DSD layer.
  Play the Marantz by hooking the analog outputs into your preamp and enjoy.
