only suggestion I have for you at that budget is a small form computer. like the apple mini or Asus vivo series. Used if you can find one. I bought my Asus vivo for couple hundred new and it has optical, USB, HDMI out. so I'm using that as my streamer optical out to my DAC. Also allows you to do other computer related things like YouTube streaming etc. You will need a TV/monitor for it though and a wireless all in one keyboard.I use a keyboard with a side track pad works well as I have my TV also in the listening room for the monitor.
if you want MQA properly unfolded then your going to spend more money then your budget.
other then that your into things like the Blue Sound Node 2i but they are $500ish.
also maybe a micorendu
you may want to just continue using your IPhone for now.
