I'm looking for a small amp with an integrated DAC that I can use to power desktop monitors from my computer.
I was originally looking for self powered desktop monitors, but I have a pair of small AR's lying around, so why not use them. But I need an amp and DAC (preferably integrated) to power them. I probably need 25watts +, and class D is likely the best way to go for small size, efficiency and low cost.
I'm hoping to find something in the $100-200 range (probably used at these numbers). So much of what I see are headphone amps that won't have the power to drive real speakers. Of course I could just get a small desktop amp and a separate USB DAC, like the HifimeDIY one.
So, anyone got any ideas or links?
Thanks,
Bob
