Actually you need a DAC + Amp + Speakers.
DAC from Cambridge Audio suppose to be good (199£) but I'm not sure if that would fit in the budget..

A DAC will convert the digital signal to analog but does not amplify it. So, you need to connect the DAC to an amplifier to actually hear any sound.
Some DACs do come with a headphone included, eg the Beresford TC-7510, but most, like the DAC Magic, Cyrus DAC, do not.

Well you don't need an external DAC, but I'll admit it's a nice to have...
But if you don't have a DAC how are you going to connect optical to amplifier? I think you need either a DAC, CD Player with optical input or AV Receiver with HDMI input (which has build in DAC anyway).
