If I buy Cambridge CXA80, do I actually need a DAC or Network Player?

I have the cxa 80 with the cxn.

the cxn allows you to connect an hard drive . Or stream from computer.

the cxn has 2 dacs and is xlr internally balanced.

 

the cxn will play dsd 64, has well has an host of others.

the cxa80 and cxn are perfect match.

You can connect an hard drive directly into the cxn, I have a 4 tb plunged in.

or use a upnp to stream from your computer.

or usb A B cable. Yes you can stream from android and Apple.

I have an hard drive for my dsd dsf albums and I use computer usb to send pcm albums.

 

amazing piece of kit.

 

best thing about the cxn is ,  it has connection galore.

and it sounds dam good.
