6000 quid? Did you buy it new? I think my stuff is like second, third, fourth, fifth-hand! I've got 9 DSP5Ks and a 561 for less than 6000 quid. Not as good as your 3200s to be fair, but I'm sure those are out there too.

If the iMac is far from speakers, you could get a network player like Bluesound Node ($599), or a HifiBerry ($99) or plenty of things in between. Wont need the 218 then. Alternatively, as others have said, a USB to SPDIF converter and a long RCA cable works too.
