I'm using a Topping E30, can't fault it. Not really feature-laden but I don't need any features.

I have ab SMSL SU8 DAC. Superb little thing I must say and it has a built in volume control. It is so good sounding it ousted my BMC UltraDAC which cost £3500!

I used to use an smsl m6 mostly as a dac headphone amp, but it could be outputted to an amp too if memory serves. It was pretty decent.
