Which one to get: McIntosh C2300 or Mcintosh C2500


Hello.......looking for some opinion on whether I should get the McIntosh C2300 or the new C2500 tube preamp?...associated equipment includes all McIntosh (MCD500 SACD/CD player, MS300 Music Server, MR88 AM/FM/XM Tuner, and MC402 Power Amp)...driving a pair of Paradigm Signature S8 speakers...with Oppo BDP-105 Blu-Ray player and VPI Traveler Turntable.......

The C2500 supposedly has a built-in DAC. Does anyone know how good this DAC is?........thank you.......

Beewax, the C2300 uses all 12AX7's, and the C2200 uses (4)12AX7's and (2)12AT7's.

Do you have a C2200?
