    NiagaraPete, does Wifi work okay from within that metal case? And do you happen to have a photo showing the back side, with the S/PDIF outputs? Thanks.

    Cheap DAC with good SINAD measurement.

    The E50 and the SMSL are virtually identical in price, and the SMSL supports Bluetooth and does not require an external power supply. Just pointing out things you probably know already. The tick mentioned by Dunring may or may not apply in your application.

    Apollon NCx500ST Stereo Amplifier Review

    Yes, besides a DAC I have, primarily, a turntable with phono stage, and a TV; but also a cassette deck and an FM tuner, and occasionally a reel-to-reel. The S/PDIF out on my TV doesn't work right. So all have RCAs for output, though I expect I'll soon have a DAC that also has XLR. Not that...

    WTB/US: Used over ear headphones for $100 or so

    I have a pair of AKG K501 in good shape. Look them up if not familiar. Nice sounding, unusual headphones. I will give you a good price; less than your $100.
