I on't think any commercial device accepts pure DSD over a coaxial connection, only DSD over PCM. correct? This device sends DSD from SACDs over DoP (aka DSD over PCM) over a coax SPDIF connection. My dCS Rossini DAC reports DSD is received. The player in this case is an Oppo BDP-93.

I can connect the HDMI out of the Oppo (setting the Oppo to output bitstream I think it is called - DSD over HDMI), into this adapter, which in turn transforms the DSD stream into a DoP stream and sends it to the Rossini over coax/SPDIF. The Vivaldi or Rossini transports send DSD to the DACs over a double-AES connection (only). I don’t now if that is DoP but it is almost certainly not. As for this device, I had someone buy it for me in China (costs ~$450) but you can use other methods that will buy it for you and send it over.
