R2R Ladder DACs or All in One Streamer Solutions


I am soon to own a Pass INT 25 integrated amp. I also own an Oppo 205. 

I am now searching for a separate DAC to replace/improve the DAC in the Oppo.
Budget $2k. Used preferred.

I like the R2R ladder sound and want a tube inside for a little balance with the Solid State gear.
My current source is the Oppo 205.

I am also shopping for a Streamer/Ripper/Storage device. Roon friendly and DSD capable.
Budget also $2k. Used Preferred.

It seems that the few offerings of these all in one solutions all contain a DAC.
My thought is that the DAC included will not be any better than the Oppo so it is of little use.

Has anyone been down this road lately? 

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences!

i'll toss out one that no one will think of. Schiit Audio upper end DAC's are multi bit (r2r) the Gungnir Multi bit dac is $1299 i have one and am quite pleased.  They have a really good deal on the  YGGDRASIL GS $1599 the normal version is $2499 so that could be a smoking deal for the sound you get.
