Thanks for the replies to my post. It's clear the answer to the question is a resounding YES.
I've ruled out the solution of playing SACDs with high-resolution RCA coaxial SACD players: the Shanling Onix Zenith XST20 and the YBA YT302. The Head-Fi.com forum mentions that both operate without gapless playback when playing SACDs, and that it's an unsolvable hardware problem. That's unacceptable.
I'm going to try an alternative solution that seems to avoid this problem and is cheaper. Since my Denon DVD player is old, I'm going to use a Sony UBP-X1100ES as the source and the GeerFab D.BOB HDMI audio extractor. With this combination, I should get DSD64 via DoP over coaxial RCA.
I'll share my experience with this soon. Happy New Year 2026.
PS: By the way, Peter, can you provide more information on "free Dutch libraries"?
