Good Preamp for Emerald Physics 2.3

I was wondering what preamp people have found that matched well with Emerald Physics CS 2.3? Or, does it even matter since the Behringer crossover will convert everything digital and back to analog inside it? I would hate to spend alot of money on a great preamp/DAC and it not matter since there is conversion done in the Behringer 2496 anyway. Any thoughts and advice would be appreciated.

I'm using an Audio Aero Prestige cdp with my CS2.3 and formally CS2.It is a great preamp and DAC.I'm hoping it works for a while cause its pricy even used.
I'm wondering about anyone trying the Spatial Audio "Orpheus'DAC and thus eliminating the Behringer xover.I have the upgraded Behringer from Cullen Circuits and it is a monstrous improvement from the stock one.But its about a grand so the Orpheus seems like a good bet as it has many more features.

Rclassen,
Thanks for reporting on the Orpheus from personal use.
I figured it may be the way to go.Next major purchase.
