Best DAC to also use as a preamp


I'm thinking of selling my Cary tube pre and investing the extra money in a higher quality DAC that I could direct connect with my solid state amp. I'd say below $5K new or used. Thanks!

That's a risky move. I wouldn't make any changes without having a really good demo for whatever you are looking to buy.
