What DACs support DSD input NOT via USB?

I want to buy a dac that can do WAV, FLAC and DSD. But the dac will attach to my stereo rig, not my computer. Input will be thru my Oppo BDP-103. It may be information overload but it occurs to me that every DSD capable DAC I've looked at that supports DSD does so thru a USB input and the Oppo does not have a USB out. So I guess I'm looking for a DAC that can take a DSD signal via a coax or optical connection. I also will need a headphone jack. Any suggestions?

Any chord Dac...though they convert internally to PCM.
Qute EX, Hugo, 2Qute, etc.

Mytek with Firewire.

I think also the BMC Pure Dac can use Optical and Coax. The real problem here is the Transport. How to get a DSD stream which must come from a PC or streamer/server via Coax. DoP would be the likely only way.
