Recommendation please: Small inexpensive DAC for smart phone to receiver


I have a late '80s McIntosh mac4280 stereo receiver and have been using the headphone output of my Android phone connected to the Aux input of the receiver. 

I'd like to install a small inexpensive USB DAC between the phone an receiver to improve the sound quality.

I went to eBay and Amazon and was overwhelmed with all the Dacs, many from China, some with headphone output only, others with rca outputs which I need. I don't know where to begin looking. I'd like to keep it around $100 - $150 for a first phone Dac for my Android phone to stereo receiver.

What do you recommend?

You need an OTG cable (on the go).  They are relatively cheap.  It plugs into your connection port on the phone and has a USB on the other end.
