Hello, I would like to ask for tips on a good USB (or at least SPDI/F) DAC for my Kalis LP-8, into which I could easily plug headphones. I don't need amplification, since I am using Shure SRH-440. I am not saying I wouldn't like to upgrade them too (and get a DAC with headphone AMP), but I don't know about a good alternative. These served really well and the longer I have them, the better they play (is that even possible?).
I thought about something like Loxjie D30, but it has no balanced out which I was recommended to purchase due to minor buzzing issues (when my PC, which is the source, is under load). Which alternatives in <$200 range would you recommend? I kinda liked the Khadas Tone 2 Pro, but I suppose these balanced RCA cables are some proprietary Khadas thing.
Summary:
DAC
balanced output for speakers
headphone output (in front?)
USB input (or SPDI/F)
headphone amp?
Thanks guys
