I'm not sure how far up the scale it will get you but a Meridian Explorer2 has a line output.

It also has a headphone output and will connect to an Android phone.

I have an Explorer2 but I have not tried it with an Android phone. I paid $147.95 shipped for one NIB from a Meridian dealer.

The sound is not up to my Brooklyn DAC Plus but I would expect it to be significantly better than what you are using.

It does of course handle MQA so it is a good fit for Tidal.

I tried Qobuz but opted to stay with Tidal.

Tidal BTW, has a very nice discount for veterans.

I listened to Eric Clapton's Slowhand at 192 kHz/24 bit on Tidal today and many titles at 96 kHz/24 bit and higher.
