I have had both the C2300 and an MEN 220 when I was running Infinity IRS Betas. The MEN220 was a necessary surgical instrument. However, as I progressed and moved to the Strads and one Sub, I found the MEN220 was adding a layer of haze/noise into the sound. I moved to a JLAudio CR-1 crossover and it was night and day. Much cleaner sound and just as good if not better mains/sub integration.
I have not heard the D’Ag pre but would assume being solid state, that at a high level it will have less noise than the tube based C2300.
Get your fundamentals right first then move on major electronics.
