What functions are you looking for? If you only need to drive low impedance IEMs with iPhone 5 and don't use FLAC, then I strongly suggest the VentureCraft SounDroid Typhoon ($523). The V-MODA VERZA was based on VC's Go-DAP X, and the SDT is the successor to that. The only draw back to the SDT so far has been the lack of power compare to the VERZA, but this is a non-issue for IEMs and low-impedance cans, as both my Sennheiser Momentum and V-MODA M-100 sounded fine with it. The Fostex HP-P1 is getting a bit outdated in my option but still a good pick, and it is one of the few, if not the only one, that still function with iDevices while charging.
