Hi all,
 
I'm hoping to get some pointers to interesting candidates. It's been a long while since I've been in the market and I am completely out of touch. :)
 
I've had a Zero for 5 years now and its left channel's amp got broken. I got it fixed and it's dead again now, a few days after. O_o Anyway, I think it's time for a replacement.
 
The Zero served both as a DAC (and still does) for my Bx5A monitors and as a DAC/amp for my Denon AH-D2000s. As a DAC I am quite happy with it and the signal it outputs to my active monitors, but I would love a good amp upgrade for the Denons. 
It's connected to my computer through an old minidisc USB -> optic converter. 
 
Any help appreciated.

You should consider the usual suspects for that price range. A Schiit Modi 2 with the Magni 2 Uber or an Audio GD NFB-15.
