Need help with PC setup

I'm currently using the Haydn's with a Cambridge Azure 650av2. I'm also using this PC for my headphone setup which is the Q701's with a starving student tube amp.
My dac is the AQ Dragonfly and using a 3.5mm to RCA adapter to connect to either the Cambridge for the speakers or the tube amp for the headphones.
I'm looking for an easy way to switch between the two. Right now I'm having to swap the RCA cables around. I was considering getting another dragonfly and just switching using Windows. That'll also make it easier for me to take one of them to work to listen there.
If there is a cheaper option that won't hurt the sound quality would like to be switch between them similar we normally do it with preamps. Is there a way I can get it routed through the cambridge or is there another product like a switch I can use?

Thanks Mikey I think that's exactly what I'm looking for.Setup:

I think I'm going with this one. I rather do it at the RCA cables to avoid buying another RCA to 3.5mm adapter.Setup:
