Question about Boss2 power.
The manual says the Boss2 requires 5V 3A, but the Nirvana supply is only rated at 5V 2.85A. What is the real power requirement?
The reason for dual power supply connection is not explained in the manual, but I assume splitting the supplies allows one to power the RaspPi through USB-C connector & the DAC through the small round connection with a separate power supply. Does this really improve the SNR or sound quality?
If using an external SSD, one would also need to add supply current to power the SSD. How would the connections be made if the USB-C is limited to 3A and the RaspPi requires 3A? According to the manual, apparently the DAC section requires 250mA, but according to the product web page it requires 100mA?
What is the maximum current allowed into the small round connection 5V input, if using only one supply.
