How would you describe the sound of the Perreaux R200i intergrated amp? As this should influence your decision of your chosen dac? I have a Belles integrated and wanted to soften the highs that I was experiencing with my speakers. Therefore I went with the Orchid which has really helped with the listener fatigue. I actually purchased a used R200i recently so would be very interested in hearing opinions of its sound characteristics. Thanks, happy new year.

I love my R200i. Not looking to upgrade. Got it recapped last year.

Has a good amount of power for my ATC speakers. A neutral sound. Good soundstage, takes control of the music. Good instrument separation.

Tony at Coherent Systems UK has lots of Dacs he has ordered and listened to. He gives very good advice on Dac options.
