Best DAC with Volume Control?

I am looking for a few very good DACs that have a volume control to run direct into an amp. What do you suggest or have heard? The Birdland Audio Odeon-Ag with Reclocker is one. Are there any others I should consider? What did you hear and how did yours compare to the top CDPs AA Cap, Mephisto, EMC-1, etc.

Thanks and Happy Listening.

The Camelot Uther Mark 3 (20 bit) and 4(24bit) are also worth mentioning. They come stock with a 100 step voluime control and output of 6 volts, and can be upgraded to a higher output voltage from the guys at Camelot.

Agreeing with the Uther recommendation and also adding that the guys at Camelot have a gain modification that will add more pre-output for greater control for about $200. I sent mine back and am waiting to hear what it does. I also love the fact that you can see the display from a normal (12') listening distance.
