Nick, a couple years ago I replaced all my separate components (and butt-load of power cords and interconnects) with a Devialet Expert 200. New, that will definitely blow your budget. Since the Expert 200 has now been replaced by the 220 Pro, you might find a good deal on a 200 (but probably still over $2500). However, since it will replace your amp, preamp, DAC, phono pre and most of your cables, you may find it'll work. Might be worth doing the math. I actually came out ahead after selling all the stuff it replaced. Sound quality has never been better!
