???DAC/Headphone Amp With FIXED Analog Out???


I have 2 integrated amplifiers & I need to sell one so they are BOTH listed for sale....One is a Hybrid SS/Tube integrated with a VERY VERY good DAC & headphone amplifier built in..One is strictly an full tube integrated amplifier...IF the Hybrid sells before the tube I will be keeping that & will need a source component..
Can anyone recommend an excellent sounding DAC with high quality headphone circuit that has a FIXED Analog output(bypassing any preamplification out)that will feed the tube integrated?Budget to $1250.00...Thanks very much..

hahahahaha,actually posted this on head-fi.org & got the same answer,along with a much less expensive choice in the iFi "Zen Dac III"...Thanks..

Look into the Audio-GD R28 or D28. You can likely get them for less than their typical list prices so they’ll fall in your budget. They are really strong pieces at their respective price points compared to the rest of the market.

These two units are also marketed as preamps, but they have the ability to bypass the volume control and be set to line out so you can use it with your integrated.
