AV Pre/Processor vs 2 Channel Pre-Amp - Sound Quality

Ok, so let’s say we have the most amazing separate 2 channel amp, and we connect it to an AV Processor, and then to a dedicated 2 channel preamplifier separate specifically for music play. Are we really going to hear a difference at say the $2000 level?

If you don't have an amp you might consider the Parasound HINT6.

That Classe Sigma 2200i is exactly what I need, but what are options at half the price? Lol

If I want to hook up something to my current AV receiver it looks like the Parasound Hint6 is the way to go.

Nighthawk router."

So, is there a DAC involved here or are you planning on using the DAC in the prepro or integrated?
