You can try the Dragonfly dacs (black / red). I am using the black with my iphone and ATH IM70, running Spotify. Got this in anticipation of receiving my MH334...*chants*...please come soon... To me, it lifts the vocals and gives the bass more impact.

I am also interested in your impression of the Aya :)   Want to find out more before deciding to take the plunge.... currently MH334 is on the list.

    My current setup... a little bass light when compared to my Note3 with Poweramp :)

You can try the Maverick D1. Well within your budget.   My previous dac was from Keces, got it off ebay. Nice clean design.   Heh and I just collected my Aktimate Mini+ today :D

Do give Dynaudio a go too

I too recommend the Audioengine A5, however you can also give the nEar 04 a go. Both of them are active speakers, so setting them up is a breeze.

I switch in between the 71A and Lisa III depending on my mood and music preference. The Blackbird is very relaxing imo, jazz and vocals are smooth and it is my choice of amp to chill out. The Lisa III is more forward and with adjustable bass, I use it when I want to have fun.

You need to change or recharge your batteries. I had the same problem and I totally freaked out too Do not panic, just go grab some new batts.

I have only tried the D2000 with the GS Voyager however just for a brief moment. The bass was plentiful with pretty good impact. I could not remember the detailing and soundstage.... But overall it was good. My test tracks were Apologize by One Republic and Accidd by Jem, both tracks have a...
