Stereo SACD on a Multi SACD player?


I just bought a Sony DVP-NC555ES player and have a question. At this time I only have a two channel setup although my receiver has a multi-channel input. I have my player Multi output front left and right connected to the multi front left/right of the receiver. When playing a SACD 5.1 disk such as The Who's Tommy, is it possible to hear the SACD layer through 2 channels? I guess I don't fully understand all of the bells and whistles and I can't find any reference to this in the manual. My understanding is that Multi SACD will play on a 2 channel only SACD player, can this be made to happen on a Multi Channel player as well?

Hey, thanks for the quick response! I now am in the SACD world...the Dylan sampler that came with the player sounds pretty sweet already. Funny, I am picking up my MF Tri-Vista 21 DAC next week, hope I use it =D
