I highly recommend you try the micromega mydac. It's exactly what you are looking for in this price range. Try it, you will be amazed.

There were two white ones on sale in my country. I ignored it as was looking for black ones. Now, I wish I had bought them as it's highly recommended especially from you.

It's difficult for me to say, since I don't have that much comparative experience. Of the three DACs that I've tried to any great extent, I'd say neutral. Certainly not bright.

I found the Bifrost to be a bit bright when I first got it, but it immediately started smoothing out after a few days, and four months in, I would say that it was rich and musical sounding. One of the largest changes due to burn-in I've experienced in a component. Altogether a wonderful DAC. And for the money, just stupidly good.
