What about Emerald Physics DAC 2? Asynchronous 24/192 Decoding, USB powered, high quality components used at analog stages, CD standard of 2V RMS.

They are on sale at RM589 at the moment. You can check out the review.

You can get more info here, Curve Acoustics

But this is just a DAC, no built-in amp, 2V RMS. You still need an amp if you want to drive your headphone.
