While it may be physically possible to daisy chain i.LINK interface source components as shown on the left, Sony cannot guarantee proper operation. The proper connection is shown on the right. The i.LINK processing of the STR-DA7100ES can also handle a variety of digital audio formats, including Dolby Digital® and dts® compressed streams and DVD-Audio.

Dual i.LINK interfaces
Where the STR-DA9000ES had one i.LINK interface, the STR-DA7100ES
has two, in daisy chain configuration. However, source components should be
connected in a one-to-one configuration.
While it may be physically possible to daisy chain i.LINK interface
source components as shown on the left, Sony cannot guarantee proper
operation.
The proper connection is shown on the right.
The i.LINK processing of the STR-DA7100ES can also handle a variety of
digital audio formats, including Dolby Digital® and dts® compressed streams and
DVD-Audio.
However, the performance depends on the connected players.
At
this time, Sony can only guarantee correct performance with the SCD-XA9000ES
Super Audio CD/CD player and the DVP-NS9100ES DVD/SA-CD/CD player.
