Too late now, but nobody mentioned Schiit here? Depending on where the OP lives, any aftercare should be readily available I'd have thought and the performance of current models seems generally excellent with any SINAD differences between these and the very best inaudible?

I was able to get an SU1 for £67 on an Amazon Black Friday sale. It's hidden down the back, 'sounds' just fine and I hope it lasts well in the 'second system.' If not, I'll just have to put it down to bad luck. The main system may well need something a little *posher looking* though, but that will cost more...
