 From a quick perusal of the manual, NO

There is no digital signal output to connect to a DAC
just a headphone and line output - both appear to be 3mm stereo jack ports.
Happy Listening

 Thanks very much... I guess that means I can run a cable from the headphone out of the Discman (1/8 inch termination) to the rca inputs of an amp, and use the
dac of the discman?

 use the line out, output, same connection,
and you can remove the volume pot and headphone amp from the signal path-
Happy Listening

 your home page url in your profile leads to some really weird site which I'm fairly certain is not your intention.

I'll amend that.
After Roger died, the ownership transition has been opaque

Make no mistake, Roger made an utterly novel circuit that obtained the power he claimed._nT!, posted on March 30, 2025 at 07:04:54
