Adding a dedicated Preamp and Hi Res Streamer

Thank you both for your input and sorry for the delayed reply as I was out of sync with my audio due to being very busy with work . 

UPDATE : I have decided to order the Mcintosh C53  preamp and Iam suppose to get it this week , I was advised and  feel it will enhance and open up the sound stage in my huge open space and bad accoustic great room (approx 1200 SF that opens up to another 600 SF area with 22' high ceiling with more glass then walls & marble floor) . My debate is in regards to the music streamer between the all around convinient nice A/V presentation of the Hifi Rose 150B or any of the Aurenders or Lumin untis (U2 Mini  , no DAC for streamer only or T2 w/dac) or any of the more expensive Aurenders ACS10 , N10 , etc which I wonder if the high price will come with a substential twice as better sound stage as the price tag difference form the Hifi Rose 150B or the Lumin T2 .

I want to be able to utilize the USB input of the newer DA2 DAC in the MC-53 to maximize the hi res potential .

Any input/ recommendation will be greatly appreciated .

Simaudio Moon 390 may fit the bill nicely. I was in the same boat a few months back and had the JC2 bp as my first choice there was a good chance the moon 390 would've landed in my setup but I had already purchased an Marantz 30n sacd that would handle my streaming via Heos (Amazon Music) and wanted a stand alone sacd/cd spinner. The preamp I ended up with was the Musical Fidelity Ms 8 preamp  which has far exceeded my expectations and also allows for seamless integration  with my Marantz 8805  which I used as my prior preamp for 2/ch and multi.

For a streamer I recommend choosing an Aurender. One commiserate with the your other equipment. My streamer is the most costly component on my digital side. With much experimentation on different streamers I realized it is a source component and therefore is very much like a turntable… you can’t fix inferior sound by amplifying it. While the idea of a steamer shouldn’t sounds appealing it is completely wrong.

Also, I and most folks will recommend you switch to Qobuz for streaming. It is the premier high fidelity streaming service. It has over 500,000 high resolution albums… and is widely regarded as the best sounding. While having only a fraction of the high resolution albums Tidal is pretty much the only real competition. This shouldn’t be something you think much about. Just do it. I had Tidal, my audio guy brought it up every time he dropped by… after a year I finally got a subscription to try in parallel with Tidal, within a couple days I dropped Tidal and kicked myself for not listening to him sooner.

You love McIntosh… I assume… you have a lot of it. Many people do. So maybe a Mac preamp is the way to go. I respect the brand… it is good at midrange and has very pronounced bass at the expense of openness and level of details. I am a Audio Research fan. You can see my systems under my ID.
 

It would be great to see yours. The components sound great.
