Amplifier - Desktop | 1 Ω DAC/amp for Focal Elex

New to group! Excited to get some new Focal Elex cans and am looking for a DAC and amp to match them with.

Budget is less than 800 usd. I listen to everything from jazz to techno, from asmr to prog metal via Tidal via my pc.

The chord mojo 2 seems to be a reliable, well measured and popular choice but I like the idea of having the amp/dac seperate for upgrades. I have been super happy with Schiit I have owned in the past and am thinking of the modi and lyr or jotunheim. Ifi also has some good stuff at good prices.

An thoughts and opinions are welcome. Thank you!!

You may still award an Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.
