Hi guys
 
Im looking to get a cheap (under lets say $100) DAC capable of converting optical SPDIF from my computer to analog, (plus maybe USB to analog), 24/96 or 24/192 but without built-in amplifier circuit.
Since I have a good separate headphone amplifier, I'd rather avoid cheap amplifying circuit and potential noises.
 
Any pieces of advice?
Does anyone know any good sounding solution like that?

Schiit Modi optical DAC, $99+tax/shipping.
There are some optical DACs for around $60, sold on eBay (like SMSL brand), but durability is not the greatest.

40$ for a Sabre DAC - I'm very happy with it.
