Yes that's correct.

Yes that would work fine. (If you ever upgrade the DAC, I suggest you
look into enabling Enhanced Digital Output in the Touch, and then using
USB out. But your current DAC does as well on coaxial as it does on USB,
so let's discuss this some other time. There is a long thread on this
topic here.)

Yes, that's correct. (But again: if you upgrade your DAC, you may decide
you want it to feed both the Magni and the receiver, in which case we're
back to the first paragraph's RCA chain again.) OK? Good luck and enjoy!
