That's what I figured... Just trying to influence if I could!
I will have my Auralic mini there as a transport but and I can hook up RCA cables to it and attach them to persay source number ? and then it is a simple matter to switched between the Auralic DAC and the external USB DAC's attached to my mini
and it cost $500 new and can use a internal SSD drive like i use it for with a 1TB SSD drive with all my music on it and it plays nicely with my MP-MPD2 DAC with only a slight degrade in SQ! it is worth owning in my book...it been the weakest link in my system by the smallest amount in my opinion. but my DAC is new and need's some serious burn-in in my opinion.

Haha. Speaking of... you must make time to stop by this place. Look for Wagyu Ribeye Special Reserve. You only live once so you gotta try it at least once. I don’t remember the numeric scale of the quality but it is top notch. The aged steaks there are only around five days so I pass on those. If they happen to have the Tomahawk that day, gotta try it too!
