Thank You All very much for the input etc… I’m still a little bit confused, I think
You win some, you lose some. It's probably pretty gimmicky.
For sure, if you use 2 to increase the signal by 3dB, you end up changing/needing to change a bunch of things to ensure good matching, impedance, timing, and just to handle the now higher output. All to do what? Hopefully gain 3dB in signal-to-noise ratio for
some noises. The risk of adding issues is not small, so IDK when it's worth it or if out of all the changes, what actually has the bigger impact(measurable).
In general, proper design makes good signal out of a DAC, not throwing more chips in a box.
For other purposes, if they exist, IDK.
I also have a question(not for you, perhaps

) instead of an answer: Given that many chips have more than 2 channels(8 is pretty common), is there is a need to use more than one for whatever it is they do when using several?
About details and soundstage, you can look at every audiophile discussion ever on anything, and you'll find someone bring up how it impacts details and soundstage. It doesn't even have to be something that changes the sound at all. Quantum stickers, magic crystal, weird triangles you put in a room for no reason, someone will tell you how it affected the details and soundstage, I guaranty it. Don't put too much stock into those descriptions, as you usually won't be able to know if or when they're relevant instead of made up.
Another question, do pro audio products tend to pile up the DAC chips into their DACs? Or is it more of an audiophile market doing it?
