To DAC or not to DAC ?
The answer is yes. Like a Buick is better than a Yugo. With Porsche taste.  
Integrated with Built In Streamer
Quad, Lyngdorf, Hegel. Marantz, NAD, Lumin, HiFi Rose. The Cambridge is out of budget.  
Do We Have New Software?
Malarkey!!  
suspending monitors from the ceiling
Maybe wifi solar powered would work.

Comments run off the screen now. Hard to make any sense of it. 🍒  
Dirac - does it work with a stereo preamp?
It works anywhere you can insert it. Not with an integrated smp with no tape loop. Unless you only have or want to use it in one source.  
Ready For Digital Source...Computer?
There are no ways "around." You can put lipstick on the hog with foobar and Fidelizer. Not worth the bother. I can't get the time invested back.

Steaming grotecakes! If you can’t figure out how to stream from a PC (which sucks) you’ll never get here without some homework. https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/open-source-streamers/audiophonics-raspdac-mini-lcd-kit-diy-streamer-for-raspberry-p... 
Ridiculous assertions that someone is being ripped off or conned
And I thought Utopia meant Todd and Jason.  
Portable Player Recommendation

$39K for the Linn Klimax DAC/streamer?
Typical Absolute Sound nonsense.Do you need a Doc of Philosophy or a trained monkey? 
2v, 4v, or 1v input better?
Yup yup. The options are for equipment matching. That iS the only absolute.I have +- trims on all inputs.That would probably short your circuit. 
Great song to test bass
Night Moves by Gregg Allman on his best album.I used to haul around The Last Record Album for the track One Love Stand. I bought 2 pairs of speakers with it.  
Audiophile virtues
Sink in? More like swirl down the drain.At least the library has it. 
Bands/artists you never got to see live in their heyday, but would've liked to.
Seen a Steely Dan show. With respect to Walter the newest Steely Dan Band is in another league.
