For sure, I'm the biggest fan of the DAC1, owning one from the very beginning on. I switched three times and I think they changed the sonic signature over time...... but still.... why don't they offer a remote????!!! There was even a time, when I thought about modifying my DAC.... but...

wow, few months ago a few shops still offered it.... still, I found one German online-shop having it listed: http://www.computer4music.de/index.html?P_281.htm Maybe this helps. In any case shipping over the channel will be easier then over the atlantic, I guess. cheers, Andreas
