I'm interested in what could be a good pairing for Beyerdynamic T90, Hifiman HE-400 and/or Sennheiser HD600 to replace my Yulong U100. I've been living under a rock since 2011 so I have no idea what the kids listen to these days but ODAC+o2 and Aune T1 seem to be popular and both cost around $120 where I live (China). 
 
ODAC+o2 seems a cheap way to get that analytical sound, but I'd like to have something little bit on the warmer side, especially for the T90. Just not sure if Aune T1 has good enough amp, while Little Dot MK3 (which seems well-liked) is just an amp, costs around $200 and not sure how it would sound with the U100's DAC should I want to pair it with it.
 
I would really appreciate any recommendations, especially from Chinese products since they are cheaper here and the warranty is better. 
 
Edit: Went with ODAC/O2. Did some listening on all and Aune T1 is actually a downgrade from U100, while ODAC/O2 is a step up. Also learned that I didn't want a warmer sound, but rather enjoyed the neutral sound of O2.
