#49 FX-Audio DAC-SQ3 eBay
Pros: Audio Science Review measured a SINAD of 108 dB, which is clean for nearly all listening. It has an adjustable RCA output for driving powered speakers and passes the USB signal on to optical and coaxial outputs for other gear. Its compact 98 mm wide case fits easily on a desk.
Cons: USB is the only input, so it cannot take optical, coaxial or Bluetooth sources, and there is no balanced output or headphone output. Its SINAD is lower than the Topping D10s, which also rates higher, though the difference is not audible.
