| best cable for dac Have the DAC 2 and I love my Elco Ultimate. Can get for about 130 smackers here on the A'gon. | |
| Difference between 24/96 and 24/192 Do you have any idea which ones, Sean? | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 I have the Pre-1--decided against the Sep-1 after reading the Sounstage review. And I have to admit I really agree with the article (from a dedicated tube guy) there's nothing clinical or overly lean about the Pre-1. Very pleased. | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 My DAC is installed in the pre-amp, so in a way the powercord is going to the DAC. I'll update in another week or so. | |
| Difference between 24/96 and 24/192 Onhwy61:Why only output at 16/44 when both claim a higher output?Does any of this really matter if the DAC takes whatever info it gets and upsamples it anyways? | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 Pardales:Since I let the DAC run continuously for a week it is well-burned in. What I said in my last post is holding true. But there is a single caveat, I've now upgraded my power cords to Virtual Dynamics References, and am in the process of bre... | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 Best of luck Tubegroover and remember to post your findings. I would be very interested in learning more about the art/dio. | |
| Anyone heard the Soliloquy 6.5?? I had a very long test with the 6.5 (20 hrs. of listening over a three day weekend) and I must say that while I enjoyed them, my Tyler Acoustic Linbrooks (at almost 2000 dollars less) was a better speaker across the board. The 6.5 seemed grainy an... | |
| SACD Player? The new Sony 777 multichannel SACD player can be had for 2000 bucks at Oade Brothers last time I enquired. | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 Its been over 150 hours of break in and I think I'm ready for a definitive statement. The DAC 2 is a big step forward for Bel Canto. Everyday I am rediscovering my 3000 redbook CDs and I'm captivated.Everything I've mentioned before has basically ... | |
| Virt. Dynamics Power 2 break-in Does the music have to be playing? Or does the preamp just need to be open? | |
| Best USED Transport for under 2,000 Completely agree with the above recommendation--heard one--loved it, but was swayed by the Theta name and have regretted it ever since. Don't get me wrong, my Theta Data Basic II really is excellent, but for 200 extra bucks I coulda had spectacula... | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 In a discussion at Harmonic Discord the DAC 2 didn't do so well compared to the Art Dio and the Channel I sland modded Norh CD-1. Interesting discussion though. One of the members claimed that the DAC 2 was boomy. After 45 hours of break-in this i... | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 I'm into hour 30 of the break in and if things continue to improve, well...it'll just be scary. As I upgraded from the 1.1 I'm betting my break-in is gonna happen quicker than those of you who bought it new (although the board is completely new, t... | |
| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 Steve: I hate to sound over the top (it usually doesn't do anyone any good and it leads to inaccuracies) but the two pieces in my system that are near world class (notice I said near) are the Evo 200.2 and the Linbrooks. A buddy and I went to see ... |
