Surely the best way is I2S between DAC and Transport.
If it worries you,why bother with SP/DIF in the first place ?

I'm also still awake
Was having a better look at the datasheet (which i should have done earlier instead of just assuming things as in post 18 and 19) and i was getting there on my own..
Ok, so this thing is the master for the player and you don't have to do anything to the xtal. So no cd's at warp speed if the dac is not switched on as the player would then run on the xtal.
Well, then i agree it is easier to slave these players than a "normal" player which would require some extra effort to avoid them running without a clock. And the clock signal has half the frequency (if divided in the dac) on the interface.
"Yamaha players CDX-9X0/11X0/5000 and all others that have the YM3613"
Looking at the datasheet, it seems it can sync to WCI with the VCO. So it could be that the setup of a player is different and that the 3613 is not the master. So i'm not shure it applies to all players with this chip (if there are other players).

Best is clock in the DAC, with a feed to the transport (as here).
Interface type for the audio data between DAC and transport should then not matter (jitter is largely removed by reclocking the data)
