Bryston BDA-1 vs. BelCanto DAC3 any comparisons?

No experience - but I read somewhere that the Bryston DAC sounded similar to a Benchmark DAC1. It might be much better (as no doubt Bryston DAC owners will say) but it is at least similar in "style" according to what I read - a pro type sound which will tend to be "detailed" without being harsh.

I compared a current Benchmark DAC1 to my DAC 3 and the BelCanto was a clear upgrade in refinement, but it should be an improvement as it commands a higher price. Who knows maybe Bryston will be the new value champ?

Try the www.audiocircle.com pages in the Bryston section.

No comparison here,but like the BC Dac alot after 6 months running with a Mac mini,good luck,Bob
