From Topping D30 to ??? (XLR/Balanced)


I have a Topping D30 which is fine. Its only for Apple Music and movies but it sounds good to me (I listen mainly to vinyl). The linestage I am looking to get has more balanced ins than RCA so I figured I'd replace the Topping with a DAC thats XLR/Balanced. The linestage is fully balanced BTW.

 

So there's the Modius but I read a really lackluster review on Analog Planet which was concerning.

 

I'm looking at inexpensive DACs with balanced outs. Suggestions?

@fuzztone  I saw that one but sadly I would need an optical in and if possible a coax (for the future disc spinner). I’d settle for just optical though. 
 

This unit has optical out which I don’t understand the need for but I’m not much into digital so that’s just my ignorance talking.
