DACs With Killer Built-In Preamps

.
I see a lot of DACs with volume controls with the ability to act as a preamp. The Audio Research Reference Dac/Digital Media Bridge ($15k) has a volume control and a lot of innards of its Reference 5SE preamp...which makes for a very serious preamp section on that DAC.

Are there any DACs with voulume controls under $7k that can compete with top-tier preamps?

Yes, in "High End Audio 550", fundamentals still count for a lot, perhaps even more so than bank accounts. :^)
