Hi,
I'm considering the RA1570 Integrated DAC/Amp for a 2 channel setup, and possibly to combine it with a AVR for a 5.1 setup in the future. 2ch though is my main priority. My budget is under $2k and have a pair of B&W 683 speakers
However, does anyone have any feedback on how the RA1570 Integrated DAC/Amp would compare to the RC1570 preamp/RB1552 mkII combo. The RC1570/RB1552 look like they have the same specs as the RA1570. I realise the RC1570/RB1552 combo would need a DAC, but it would be great to know if there is much of a sound difference if for example using a DAC similar in quality to the RA1570 Integrated DAC/AMP (I'm guessing its DAC is in the $500-700 range).
I believe the prices are as follows
RA1570 $1600
RC1570 preamp $999
RB1552 mkII 2ch Amp $999
Thanks
