Just talking out my you-know-what, but as a Node 2i user I would be skeptical of having all of this great gear and not having a VERY good DAC. It is a $500 unit with most of that money going into the software infrastructure to run it, not a crazy good DAC (reviews show it to be good, but not up to par with what you are planning).
The wait list for the Decware gear is crazy-long right now (370 orders as of making this post) which I think is about 6+ months. If you can swing it, I'd think about getting that gear on order, and worry about cables and such later (you can easily add, change those out).
At the very least, get that amp on order, you might get it when your house is ready. With that, the speakers, you will have a blast, and can take the time to get the other goodies sorted out.
I am not a DAC pro, but some of the stuff from Schiit or Denafrips (stuff from $100 to $1,000+) could be a nice starting point.
