I know what you mean, for the most part I'm pretty sure I don't need, nor will ever use any of these extra features that DAC's seem inclined to shoehorn into themselves. Give me a DAC with USB and Coaxial inputs, and basic analog out, with the guts being made up of high quality parts, not stuff I don't need.
But who knows, maybe I'm just in the mindset that they charge more for the extra features then they really do.

The Stagedac was actually what I was initially aiming for but I asked myself "if it did not have all added features to tailor sound how much would it cost and what dacs would it compete with". Only thing I can figure is it would be much less and personally I am not interested in all the extra features, just want an organic, musical dac that will compliment what I already have and give a commensurate cost to value.
