Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital?

I have Comcast/Xfinity coaxial cable to their modem/router in an Apple equipped office approximately twenty feet from a remote xFi Pod with 2 ethernet outputs next to my rack. If this source is adequate what would you suggest next with a $10K budget?

Another great deal from JBL for around $2K, I don’t think you could get the same SQ for $2K going the traditional route. Again the wireless connection is optional, you can also use XLR connections. Can you get an equivalent SQ going passive, absolutely. For $2K? No way Jose:

My main system uses the Innuos Zen Mk3, and Brinkmann Nyquist 2.

I use Roon to stream Qobuz.

My first thoughts were- 'This reminds me of Vinyl'.

I've done a number of brick and mortar auditions of mid and higher priced combinations. I haven't been encouragingly impressed by the incremental value. I'm hearing differences, just not as much as I was expecting from what I've been reading in general. 

I'm reminded of when class D amplifier users were claiming their choice as 'tube like.'  I simply need to come to terms with myself or until the Logitech Touch lets go.   

The input here has been enlightening and very helpful. Thank you all.

If Roon, then no Aurender. That’s too bad as their stuff is mighty fine. Can you audition a Lumin T3? It preforms well above it’s price.
