I'm looking for a USB DAC amp which connects to my PC, then output to either my headphone or tiny desktop speakers. I primarily use my headphone (Hifiman Sundara), but sometimes I'd like to switch to speakers when my neck gets tired.
Is there any DAC or amp that can select output by a switch? Amps like Topping A50s seems to automatically switch the output to RCA when the headphone is not plugged, but I worry that the plug might 'wear out' if I unplug and re-plug it too often, so I'd prefer a switch.
I wouldn't mind if the DAC and amp are separate or a combo. Budget is hopefully under $300 altogether.
Thanks in advance!

Looks decent, but I can't seem to find it in Japan. The shipping would cost more than $50 from China, and that unfortunately makes it over my budget.

Fiio k5 Pro? Both input and gain is selectable at it.
I'm looking for an output switch, so...

Both Topping L30 and DX3 pro, as well as LOXJIE D30 seem to have the function I need. Boy I really should've done a bit more research before posting...
