Thanks a lot, both ALO MK3 and The Pan Am should be powerful enough. Most likely they're OK with Dreamline then.
REP-1030 should be the latest product from Ranko and you could already get that for 60 bucks shipped

Most likely it's quite an upgrade when compared to that relatively cheap plug from Ranko.
Those mini plugs from Furutech / Oyaide / Switchcraft / ViaBlue might not be the most durable, that's understandable since they just don't cost that much to begin with.
Recently someone mentioned much better ones from ATL / Sound Bridge / WireWorld

When compared to Oyaide and ViaBlue, the more expensive ones were winners in terms of detail retrieval, wider soundstage, and more musical etc.

WireWorld even made both female and male plugs with their Molded Carbon Fiber Silver Tube, acquire both items below and we could create an adapter for tweaking the sound as well as useful tool for Hugo

For Hugo's coaxial input, they should know what adapters are compatible since they do sell Hugo

Besides, we could also terminate coaxial cables with either Cardas GRCM 6 or Switchcraft 3502RA as shown below
