Quad Vena or Byford 200BT or a Emotiva basx A300?

[narenvaidee]

I seriously need some advise on my selections: Quad Vena or Byford 200BT or a Emotiva basx A300.

Was originally considering Quad or Byford as I listen to only Apple Music. However, since I already have a DAC (WiDAC), can I connect this to the Emotiva A300 power amp?

I believe since the WiDAC doesn’t have volume control this cannot act as a preamp? Will a DAC/Amp like schiit fulla2 solve the issue? So, schiit fulla2 + Emotiva power amp work? My aim is to not buy a preamp - get a decent power amp!

Your inputs appreciated.

Thanks,
Naren

Right now, I've a pair of old JBLs. Intend to get better bookshelves like Castle Knight 2 or PSBs in the future.
