How about a Lumin U1 Mini? You can buy one for under $1000 and even bump up performance by adding an outboard linear power supply down the line (+350 or so).
I've an Aurender N10 which is also great, but more expensive. I like the Aurender Conductor App over the Lumin App, but they're both very good. The App is a biggish part of the decision matrix imho, assuming you don't want to pay for something like Roon.
