Why dont more standalone DACs come with ethernet???

@treebeard1. “However, many DACs take ethernet direct and there is no need for USB...”

.

Then that is technically a DAC with a streamer. A pure DAC will not have that function.

There is the streamer function, the DAC function, the preamp function, the amplification function and the speaker function. They can be all in a single devise or in a combination. The connection types vary between the function if in different boxes.

I dont like happy meals, i like to buy it all separate.  
Focus is the streamer in its purist form.  Is it a network player?  Doing only bit stream conversion?

standalone DACs come with ethernet make better sound,that is the reason,and I believe more and more DAC will have that input.

It is not a streamer! It is DAC with new input.  That's it.
