I'm looking for a USB DAC / head amp to place between my laptop and my Beyer Dynamic DT150s (250 Ohm, I think). I was looking at the NuForce uDAC2, but having read a couple of posts on here, I can see it will be of little use to me. I don't just need to listen to music off my laptop, but 24/96 flac files, many of which will have a volume level quite a bit below the normal "CD" sound levels. Mainly live recordings.
 
Can anyone suggest a suitable 24/96 capable USB DAC / head amp that has more headroom than the uDAC2 apparently has? I'd like to keep costs down, but will review any suggestions.
 
Thanks for any advice.
