Please suggest Preamp


Hi,
I am looking for a good preamp, but I have a few things that the amp must have:
1. I have a pair of digital active speakers, so the amp needs to have a digital out, preferably coax. Ideally this output should be responding to the volume setting of the amp.
2. The amp should have at least one more digital output, which outputs to a CD recorder. Since I am planning to digitize all my vinyls, the amp needs A/D convertion on the digital out.
3. My budget is somewhat below $3500

A phone stage and maybe even a Tuner build in would be an appreciated bonus.

This is not too much I am asking for, but the problem is that most amps only have one digital output, and many do not let you record an analog source from the digital out. The best solution I have found so far is the Meridian 562V.2 Multimedia Controller. Other options are usually Preamp/Processors, but I don't really need all the THX etc. stuff. However, it can't hurt either I guess.

Please, if anyone can suggest a preamp that would suit me, post your reply!

Thanks,

Audio Research LS5 warm detailed and beats a ref1

find a digital out via the dac as the last poster suggests
Please note that unless you also have a volume control attached to the digital out on your preamp your system will not work. Digital volume is rare on any preamp. Please be careful.
Thanks for so many opinions!
Maybe I should really look for a separate A/D converter. I thought avoiding this would make my life simpler, but now it seems like worth checking out.

However, nobody has said anything about the Meridian 562v.2? I am curious if someone has heard this amp, or has an opinion on it.

Thanks people,
