Almost embarrassed to ask, but...

I’m seriously considering a high(ish) end used pre amp as my next upgrade. Currently using Marantz AVP, and looking for the next step up in sq for 2 channel. I have an Oppo UDP205 for discs, but also use a lot of streaming music. The Oppo has the DAC, but I’d need to get the streaming music into it. From the Oppo I’d take analog out to the pre amp. I can use a tablet, but I’d prefer a stand alone unit plugged into the Oppo. Also, what is the best connection for digital output of the streamer to digital in on the Oppo?

I would definitely consider the Oppo UDP205 audiophile grade piece of equipment, and is quite versatile as well.  it’s possible to stream music from your computer via the USB DAC, use it as Roon endpoint, or stream via your network using the Oppo Media Contol app.  It’s quite acceptable to use it as a preamp, however in my particular case I did not use it that way (connected it to an integrated amplifier via the XLR balances outputs.
