For SACD playback, the transport features McIntosh’s proprietary MCT output. This offers a secure digital connection when connected (with the included cable) to a McIntosh product with an MCT input. Also, regular CDs can also be played over MCT.

You can also use the transport with a wide range of aftermarket DACs thanks to its three digital outputs: balanced XLR, coaxial and optical.

Audio data is read at twice the normal rate, ensuring better disc-tracking and error-correction processing.
