I currently use an Audioengine D1 as a DAC and headphone amp on my desktop PC at home and work as well as my laptop when I am mobile. My current setup is PC>D1>Headphones OR Fiio A1 amp>Andrew Jones Pioneer speakers.
I want to find something similar to the D1 that will allow headphones as well as output to my amp. I am looking at the JDS Labs version of the ODAC/Objective2 for home use and keep the D1 for laptop use. I don't have crazy high end cans nor hard to drive ones.
What other similar combo DAC/amps are out there under $500?? I know of the Magni/Modi stack but want to see what else I dont know about.
