Great Pre/Pro with USB DAC?


So the question I have is... how much would I have to spend to get ONE piece that will do it all? And by all I mean, process 2-channel lossless computer audio files via a killer USB DAC, play these files through a transparent smooth 2-channel preamp section, plus decode all that 5.1 stuff for movies and such when I need that?

I currently have a Peachtree Nova (which I use solely as my Preamp/DAC), plus an Integra DHC 9.9 pre/pro (for TV and movies only), an ARC 100.2 amp, and Dynudio Contour S3.4 speakers. Obviously I want the performance of an all-in-one to exceed the level I am getting now with the Nova + Integra combo.

What are your suggestions and corresponding price points? My budget for this is currently around $2500 used. SHould I just keep what I have until I can spend more? Or are there some pieces out there I can pick up within my budget that will knock me out? Thanks!

AFAIK, the Anthems lack a USB input but the same can be said for most prepros. My suggestion is to choose your prepro and add a high resolution USB-to-S/PDIF converter.

Great suggestion - the D2 - but I don't think it has a built-in DAC like the D2v does. And the D2v is out of my budget. Otherwise, the D2 would be perfect, as I don't need 8 HDMI inputs, room correction, or the latest video processing power.

Also I checked out that M2Tech Hiface piece, and from what I can tell, it basically is a $150 USB dongle that cleans up and stabilizes the signal coming from my computer before it hits my DAC, to improve the sound. But I would still need a USB DAC in the path somewhere. Correct? I feel like I am missing something. Would this piece somehow eliminate my need for a USB DAC (which I am currently using my Nova for)?
1. There is no difference between the D2 and D2v with regard to USB inputs (neither have them) or other digital audio inputs (both have them).

2. The M2Tech converts(!) USB to S/PDIF and will work with either Anthem or, indeed, any prepro with digital coax inputs. I believe that includes all of them.

3. There are many alternatives to the the M2Tech, both less and more expensive. This one looks especially neat: http://www.audiophilleo.com/audiophilleo2.aspx

Thanks Kal. So now that I understand that, I guess then my question now has to do with the differences in audio quality between a) having my lossless files converted by a separate USB DAC and played through a preamp such as my current Nova application and b) using the M2Tech type of piece to convert the files to S/PDIF and then having a piece like the Anthem do the DAC and preamp functions.

Your thoughts? Or anyone else care to weigh in? Your comments have been very helpful thus far.
