Then you can sell the outboard DAC

Unison Research, Unico Nuovo. It'll be ready for any speaker you throw at it down the road. 

@alnubis  I believe your speakers would work better with SS amplification. The Vincent SV237MKII has that coupled with a tube based preamp stage. Vincent integrateds are know to provide a smooth presentation, with even tonal balance,  and good soundstaging. I once owned one, the SV226MK, which I enjoyed. They represent great sound for the money and I believe would mate well with your speakers. New their cost is a little over your budget, however the one mentioned  by @hasmarto and sold by Upscale is not too far off.
