hi im planning to get a schiit stack and rolls mx42. i need a mixer to output my tv(switch, xbox one, ps4), pc and laptop to an acm (comes with ZxR) which then outputs to speakers or headphones. how do i arrange the modi, magni and mx42? i read that the mixer would normally be in between the DAC and amp, but that means that my other inputs wouldn't be able to benefit from the DAC. would there be any issue if i had the mixer before the stack? i'm fine with the DAC being between my main pc and mixer if it doesn't work out though but was just wondering if i would suffer any loss in quality if i had the DAC after the mixer. thanks in advance!

Mixer - Speakers/ Amp + Dac

LTT's Resident Porsche fanboy and nutjob Audiophile.

 

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)
