Actually the Denon DVD5900 does feature SACD digital output of sorts via
a
proprietary firewire connection:

DENON Link for connection to AVR-5803 (compatible with Second Edition
Units) . PCM and DSD Compatible IEEE-1394 Out/In ports, featuring
exclusive
DENON Clock Synchronized System (DCSS), a proprietary and defeatable
system . The IEEE-1394 port with DCSS activated, functions only with
upcoming DENON IEEE-1394 equipped product; when DCSS is defeated, the
port
is set to A&M Protocol .

What's A&M protocol?

You got me! No time to dig through their web site now to see if it's there.
If you are looking I would check out the specs for the 5803 receiver as they
may mention it there since it appears to refer to a protocol for connecting
to that device.
