The Ultimate Portable Solution of The Future
IEM Re-Wired, Integrated Fully Balanced Battery and/or USB Powered AMP and Asynchronous USB or FireWire 24/06(192) DAC

I want to use custom IEM (In Ear Monitors), like:
Then I want to re-wire them with the best possible (but flexible/usable) balanced cables.
Suggestions to cables would be appreciated.
They should be used with the best possible fully balanced battery operated portable amp.
The only Balanced amps I have only com across are:
If my dream scenario, the amp would also feature an integrated asynchronous USB or FireWire 24/96 (192) DAC, but until now, I not found any portable products that offer this, so I guess a separate DAC is the only viable solution - if that exist.
Very few DACs have the ability to output a balanced signal, but I do not have the deep product knowledge theat Head-Fi users have, so I was hoping for some help here.
So far, the only balanced portable DAC I have found is the:
So, the quest continues, and I hope that you guys can help me find Portable Nirvana
Thanks in advacne,

(This DAC however, is not asynchronous and does not offer a HD resolution (24/96 (192)) chip.)
