The Bel Canto DACs (1.5, 2.5, 3.5) allow you to use their remote to pick specific inputs (via the number buttons).

Decent DAC with Real Remote
I would like to be able to use my universal remote with my system. Ya, ya, real audiophiles don't use them. Pffft. If my Cary SLP-03 preamp supports it and my Oppo BDP-95 supports it I see no reason why my DAC can't.
My Cary Xciter has no remote. It is supposed to sense inputs automatically. It's never worked once that way.
I thought I'd get a Wyred4Sound DAC-2 since it has a remote, but it only cycles up and down, not to a specific input. Why? Why? Why? It's better, but it's still really annoying. My Peachtree Nova did, but it did not measure up to the sound of the SLP-03 or the Xciter either as a preamp or as a DAC.
Is there any hope here?
