Best imaging up to 3k used?

My speakers are warm, so I am looking for the faster, brighter type of sound.

Great imaging is my no1 goal. (3D , instrument separation)
PRAT no.2 (speed, dynamics, flow)

Redbook files only, DAC / streamer with analogue preamp preferred

The OP is wanting a dac that has the best imaging up to the price of 3k.

He wants digital in that can handle aiff files with analog xlr out.

I don't think he is looking for speakers.

I have listened to Benchmark, Naim and Mytek. They should work well with a slightly warm and musical speaker.

Look at a used Mytek Manhattan.  Very clean, uncolored sound, has both digital and analog pre-amp.
