Can anybody recommend a budget DAP (under £100) that can be used with an amp and has a proper folder view?

Question is do I need a DAP.....
A simple upgrade to my good set F.Audio FA3+ NiceHCK M6... IEM's tips! I tried another pair, that seals better the ear canal, and got more deep bass. Details that makes difference.
I found same things,on M6, 3 filter system does not give meaningful changes and bloaty midbass. No I tamed midbass with equalizer, the new tips revealed some dB in lower bass that previous tips let escape thru an imperfect sealing. Now M6 sounds great, well coupled with F.Audio FA3I wonder if u have tried 3rd party BGVP filters with the NiceHCK M6?
It changes the M6 to a totally different beast. I thought the original 3 tuning filters provided were a bit gimmicky, and the M6's stock tuning's midbass was too bloated for me (this is coming from a basshead). With the BGVP filters for a few bucks, it tames the midbass and gives the mids/trebles much room to breathe, converting it to a more "audiophile" tuning.
Hi guys - hope you're all doing well.
I am looking to buy a budget DAP, I figured I'll ask in this thread, instead of opening a new thread.
Here's what I am looking to have in the DAP (in no particular order, but ideally all must be present):
- Must support at least the following formats: MP3, AAC, FLAC, WAV, APE. The other formats are considered nice bonus if supported.
- Must have screen, at least to look at songs titles, album, and artist. No need for fancy album artwork.
- Must be compatible with an amp, I have in mind to use my NX1s, which I have fixed on low gain mode. High output impedance should be no problem since it's driving thousands of Ohm impedance.
- I’d highly appreciate flat frequency response
- Reasonably stable firmware, at least not models that are known for being buggy.
I've been looking at the following, and these should give an idea of the price range I'm comfortable with (at this time)
- xDuoo X2 - I like that it has a screen, push buttons, great form factor, but I read the output is rather high, I've read some noted excess noise when paired with an amp?
- Benjie S5 - Looks like a classic choice, I think it fulfills my requirements above.
- Benjie T6 - Similar to S5, plus gapless playback which I appreciate, for listening to Pink Floyd
Maybe I just need to save up some money and go with Zishan Z3 Pro?
Feel free to give your recommendations too. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks a lot.

It tends to be bright because of bass roll-off, but I prefer to consider the entire set dap+earphones (also an aftermarket cable can improve the sound, even if in a lesser way)How does FA3 sound? Is it still a bright sounding DAP?

In my case, for example:
FA3+ Ue900s (4BA) = Bright, few bass
FA3+NiceHCK M6 (2DD+4BA) = Balanced sound, better! (with EQ, lowered mid-bass 3dB)
No I don't know the other DAPs, you may find reviews about them here.Thx mate...
I'm looking for a bright sounding DAP. Have you ever compare FA3 with something like shanling m5s or QP1R? Which one is the most bright DAP?
