Budget bedroom compact amp with digital inputs

[calorgas]

Looking for suggestions for something for my daughter to replace a Pioneer A400x. She only uses digital kit so the only thing plugged into the Pioneer is a cdp and she uses the telly to listen to most of her music via her phone and PS4. So was looking for something small with 2 or 3 inputs that only needs to have enough grunt to drive a pair of TDL Compact Monitors.

Is there such a thing, new or 2nd hand that can be had for ~£100? I guess along the lines of the Teac AI-101DA but cheaper

Maybe look for a 2nd hand NAD D3020 - compact class D amp with built in DAC too

Yes that would be ideal, I'm not sure I'd get one on budget though. Was just looking at a little Q Acoustics M7 thingy that might do the job....anyone heard/had one?

Teac A-H01 is worth a look, second hand should be on budget, Digital inputs and 50wpc. The D3020 is a good shout as well, and space saving design.

Yeah that looks good too, thanks, perhaps it's time for a wanted ad.....

Denon DM40 or DM41? cdp, dab radio, and digi inputs. I think the DM41 has bluetooth as well.

DM41: That's another good shout, thanks.

Ridiculously good for as low as £70

Yeah I've been mulling that one over; very cheap and you're the second person to recommend it. If it had two optical inputs I probably would have ordered one already. Still might, but have to think about whether it can accommodate everything.

Has Optical, USB and Coax as well as the AUX jack socket I use with a converter to take RCA input.........

   Will all or some of the cheap BRIK modular mini system work for you?
