looking for advice for USB DAC (lemmy.ml)

Hi linuxhardware gang

i've been having some issue on my headphone jack, and the sound quality has never been great. this is on a small mini pc running arch linux.

So what i'm looking for is a device i can plug into my usb (preferably usb-C) and Linux will use it to play audio. i plan to plug that device into my amp, which i can use headphone jack or those white and red plugs for.

I hope USB DAC is the proper term, i'm kind of struggling to find products that do this.

anyway, does anyone have experience with products like this on linux? i don't want to have to hack together the software side. even just a brand recommendation will help.

I suppose it has same internals than bigger model and should work just as well. I just needed two inputs for the project I tinkered with and once I ditched the project that got left over and now it's connected more or less permanently to my workstation.
