“If you want to hook up your CDP into a DAC then you would need to pick up a DAC with at least two COAX Inputs
Why so? Can’t I use the coax for CDP and USB ior another input for streamer?”
@artemus_5,
Yes, you can provided streamer has USB output. The Node 2i or Vault 2 has no USB output. So you’re stuck with using its Coax or Optilink output to a external DAC.
If you pickup a Aurender, Lumin or Innuos streamer without the internal DAC, then you have an option to use USB output to a external DAC.
Vault 2 offers easy ripping. I use my Vault 2 for CD ripping only. And yes, you can use Android phone but a tablet makes it so much easier to browse / navigate.
