Howdy! I'm new to this whole "audiophile" thing. Please look over this system, and let me know if you have any tips or comments. I just want to be safe before spending a lot of money (my budget is around $5,000 USD).

Speakers - Dynaudio Excite X12
Integrated Amp - Arcam A28 (possibly A38)
DAC - Arcam rDAC

I will be playing most music through my computer (via USB to my DAC). Am I missing anything? My biggest debate is which amp to get. I like the warm sound of the Arcam, but I'm unsure of which model to get (and my local store only has the A18 to test).

Any tips/comments appreciated!
Thanks!
