Is there a better all-in-one streamer/DAC/Integrated Amp under USD 5K?

For driving a pair of small, 4 ohm 86 dB speakers (DALI Menuet SE) for a small to medium size room at low to moderate SPLs, is there a Roon Ready,  all-in-one streamer/DAC/Integrated Amp under USD 5K that is likely to perform sonically  better than the Gato DIA 250S NPM?

The original 150 and the newer 150AE are sonically identical...(I was told this by Gato and was mentioned in a few reviews)...

I had a Hegel Rost, 390 and Musical Fidelity in my system for test.  When I collapse to integrated  in the coming years it will likely be one of those 2.

I recently purchased a PS Audio Stellar Strata MK2. $3,500. It's here in my office where the space is small. It does everything I want my second system setup to do. It has received good reviews Designed and made in Boulder, CO.
