amp/dac combo suggestions

[Malmbergs]

I'm looking for a amp/dac that is desctop size and under 300$. 

 

My audio setup: akg K7XX and a pair of studio monitor speakers (active speakers)

I want a amp/dac to have not only standard analog out for headphones but rca out aswell. (rca can not only be passtrow but need to be converted by the unit not my shity onbord audio)

 

currently i'm thinking about the Desktop Objective2 Rev B by mayflower electronice as it have every thing i need but whit RAC just over my price point (not including shiping to EU) I like the extra feturs exept the extra input in the front. but would like a more clean design.

mayby i have a to low price point for what i want but I'm open to any sugestions both cheaper and more expensiv 

 

sorry for bad spelling I have dyslexia and ENG is not my mother tongue. all answers appreciated

Get a Schiit Magni 2 Uber and Modi 2 Uber. The Magni 2U have pre-amp outputs, so you can connect your speakers and use the amp volume pot to control them. You can get them from Electromod if you are living in the EU.

 

In my opinion the O2 is overpriced in comparison; getting some of the same features will cost more and you still won't have pre-amp capability.
