Hey, anyone got ideas for something in the budget circa £100 range? I'm not that bothered to go second hand as long as it's eBay or refurbished from a reputable supplier. Currently I'm connected to the SMSL T2 Tube which is great as it's a nice open musical sound but I'm after something that doesn't heat up as much as the tubes. I could heat up the entire house after 30 minutes.

I enjoy a balanced sound not overly thick. Will be driving mostly IEMs and I'm currently looking at getting a new planar IEM which from reading will demand some oomph.

DAC chip is AK4493Q if it helps any... probably won't lol.

Thanks in advance.
