Hello everyone!

Asking you fellow pirates for some opinions regarding DAC/Amps.
You see, I THINK I probably have all the headphones I want at the moment (with the exception of the LCD-XC by Audeze which I can't wait to try!) and was actually looking into updating my sources. Right now I'm rocking a Nuforce Icon HDP as DAC and guiding the sound to my Lehman BCL. Both are definitely on the bright side of the spectrum and I don't have major problems with them since I mostly use warmer cans but I think it might be time for an upgrade... maybe (that's were you come in).

Problem is, my budget is not super high so I cannot go high-end (although it seems that lately more products keep popping up that although cheap provide very good sound for their price ... i.e. Vali). Also, I'm limited by space, so as much as I'd probably like how the Asgard 2 sounds, it's a bit big (hence why I have the current combo). But I guess compromises can be made...

Anyway I was looking into:

BiFrost Uber + Violectric/Lake People amp or Burson Soloist (Conductor is too expensive)
The new Geek Pulse DAC/Amp
Yulong DA8 DAC/Amp

Can you guys/gals suggest a couple more so that I can look into them on this Christmas break and have new gear on the new year? 

If you are wondering what I will drive with the new gear, here's my mostly used headphones:

Ultrasone Signature DJ
MrSpeakers Alpha Dogs
Perfect Sound Dido D901
Denon D5000 (Lawton modded)
Yamaha MT220s
Beyer T5p's (will probably sell soon)
Shure SRH1540s (will probably sell soon)

and I guess that's it.


Thanks!!
