The latest DAC from Fosi Audio - the ZD3, almost has it all:
- balanced architecture,
- the newest Sabre DAC chip,
- HDMI Arc input,
- XLR outputs,
- cool looks,
- detailed sound with rich bass.
I tested it against SMSL and Fiio competitors, paired with three different speakers, class D and class A amps, and came to the conclusion that at around $200 (depending on current deals and promos) it's perfect for 99% of us :-)
