DAP under $1000 for Audeze LCD-XC

[mediumraresteak]

I've been scratching my head if a DAP is worth purchasing over something like a LG V50/V60. Other audiophile sites will praise products that are worth as much as a dedicated desktop AMP/DAC combo. I don't know about reward ratio so I've capped my options to $1000 for now. I need something for the office (9am-6pm job) to use with my Audeze LCD-XC 2021. Based on what I can see, I've narrowed it down to the options below, but would like to hear opinions from others.

1) FiiO M11 Plus LTD
2) Shanling M6 21 Pro
3) LG V60

I am very satisfied with Fiio M11 Pro 4.4 balanced to my 2019 LCD-XC. Using HiBy music I can use its EQ settings to find the sweet spot for my ears. Might still be available on used equipment sites.
