DAC with 2x inputs on a switch?

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a nice external DAC that I can have on my desk with two different audio sources plugged into it (Speakers & Cans). I want to be able to switch between each output without faffing around with cables, and maintain the benefit of a proper DAC.

Any recommendations? In the £50-100 price range is preferred!
 
Are you looking for two inputs or two outputs?

If the latter, I personally have a FiiO E10 to which I have connected my speakers as well as my headphones. There's no realy way to switch between them within Windows (as you can only select the DAC, not which output on the DAC) but if I use my cans I can turn the speakers off with the button that's on my right monitor. If I use the speakers, I simply turn the volume knob of the headphone output to 0.

Outputs sorry, realise I was a bit unclear.

So PC -> DAC -> Either Speakers or Headphones, and can easily switch between the two. Ah so I can just connect both up and it will send audio to both, and I just switch off the one I don't want? Makes sense I guess! I'll take a look. Any other suggestions?

Would just be nice to have an easy switch to say "Send audio to this output source" =p
 
I've also got an E10 in the exact same config.
Fiio via USB, using the front out on fiio to power headphones and the line out on the back into my hifi :)
