Replacement DAC with USB in, XLR outs


I’m replacing a Bel Canto 2.5 DAC.
Suggestions for a new standalone DAC, with USB input and XLR outputs.
I’d like to stay under $1,500.
While headphone out is not necessary, I’m indifferent if it has the functionality.
My initial deep dive got muddy / appreciate any help getting off the ground before trialling.

 

Current setup:
JRiver / Laptop
Bel Canto DAC 2.5
NuForce Ref. 9 v2 s.s. monoblocks
Paradigm Studio 100 v5
Anthony Gallo TR-1

 

Thanks

I don’t want to tell you what you should want, but a remote for a stand alone DAC… would be putting money into something almost no one would use. You only have one source. Playing with the settings is something seldom done by most folks.

I utilize the DAC remote for Volume +/- as I listen to variety of genres, most hi-res but some not as brilliant. Plus getting up/out and repeat from my listening chair is a buzz kill that I try to minimize.
