I have now many SACD on my computer that I would like to record on MDs from foobar200 + sourceforge.net Super Audio CD Decoder.

What could you suggest :

- recording analog or with a resampler plugin to get the 24bit-48kHz quality ?

- using a high-end optical cable (Toslink to S/PDIF) rather than the basic one ?

- buying a high-end DAC... 

 The questions are the same with 24bit-96kHz albums.

Asa start not analogue. I bought a small cheap optical/coax out add in backplane board for my pc? I got one from Ebay some time ago for just a few £ - my mother board does have header facility for such a board , just had to doctor the pins a bit. Maybe yours has also ( mine is an old Core Duo generation Asus P5QL Pro so nothing special )

I have a very powerful computer with a rather good sound car "crystal clear" on my Asus Fata1ty motherboard. I will try soon both analog out with mini-jack to mini-jack cable and optical out, using a DSP converter DSD64 to 24bit-48kHz for MD compatibility I suppose (if it work).
