As jafant stated, use the Sony as pre for now. Take your time to best identify your needs and the marketplace.
If in need of a DAC for computer audio, one option I use in a 2nd system is a HRT Music Streamer USB DAC (which can be found for ~$80) with a pair of male to male RCA plugs (no cable) connected directly into line level input of pre.
