heres my setup: fluance sx6, smsl sa-50 amp, monoprice desktop amp/dac, philips shp9500.

 

i think my dac is dying, it gives one speaker and additional 50% in volume. it also affects my headphones. i did a temp fix where i manual lowered one side so they sound the same. and also my smsl sa-50 used to have a blue ring around the knob but it doesnt appear anymore (but it doesnt affect performance i think). assuming i cant find a monoprice amp/dac, what should i replace or upgrade to? if i wanted to replacement it i dont want to spend anymore than 120. if i want to upgrade it at most i would spend up to 200. the highest headphones that i would ever use would either be hd600/hd6xx or beyerdynamic dt990. i would like to buy it from usa amazon.

 

do you have any suggestions?
