Balanced Passive Pre Amp


Hello everyone.  

Can anyone recommend a relatively decent balanced passive pre amplifier? My active speakers are balanced only. My DAC is also balanced but has no volume control. Since all I really need is volume control... I Was hoping to keep it under $200. I see a few Chinese items on Amazon that fit the bill but they seem to have a dollar store quality to them that makes me cringe.

For under $200
This one looks to be very good build and circuit quality, relay based switched resistor, (better than potentiometers, even Alps)
And it has a linear supply no rf from smp, and you may hear a little clicking only when turning the volume up and down).
