| My New Bel Canto DAC 2 Hi Guys:Lets see, equipment: Bel Canto Pre-1(DAC 2 is installed in pre-amp) mated to a Bel Canto Evo 200.2 amp. For a transport I'm using the Theta Data Basic II. The Elco Ulitmate Digital connects DAC to transport. My speakers are the Tyler Acous... | |
| anyone heard the BAT vkd5se 24 bit? never heard the 20 bit, but the 24--in a word--and I mean this technically--glorious! Rich, full, and liquid. Matbe the most musical player I've ever heard. If all the other stuff out there seems analytical and cold, then this is the baby for you.... | |
| Question about DAC Joe is right--nothing more to add except go for the mods! | |
| Best Kept Speaker Secret? Do yourself a favor and look for a pair of Tyler Acoustic Linbrooks--4500 new. It was the best thing I ever did. My best friend has a pair of Martin-Logans and I left him crying and angry after hearing the Linbrooks for the first time. We went to ... | |
| Theta Basic or Pioneer PD 65? Which One is Best? this is the exact, and i mean exact question i asked my dealer 3 weeks ago. well not exact because i was referencing the theta data basic ii versus the pioneer you mention. he said the theta will blow it away because of the jitter clock and the __... | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music Right now--the new remaster, in the original jamacian release, of Bob Marley's "Stir It Up." Gorgeous, erotic, makes you wanna cry. I was devestated. | |
| Sony 9000es or Musical Fidelity A3 CDP. Dolphin: yep. soundstage depth.NaT: I'm assuming that the person wants a DVD and Sacd capablility. For many of us, because of pricing, we've got to knock off two/three birds with one stone. That's why I like the gradual approach of the 9000 with a... | |
| Sony 9000es or Musical Fidelity A3 CDP. I partially agree with Nat on this one. But what I would do is buy the Sony and then buy an EVS or Bel Canto DAC. Why? Because the Sony sound is lacking, but the transport portion is clearly superior to the other choices, if not superior to player... | |
| Sony DVP S9000 ES vs. Sony DVP NS900V Thanks very much BMPNYC! | |
| Sony DVP S9000 ES vs. Sony DVP NS900V BMPNYC: Can you articulate the problem with the S9000ES that you refer to. I also am looking for a two channel SACD player with a Bel Canto 1.1 for Redbook CDs. | |
| The most important piece in a stereo system??? I take a bookend approach. I believe the DAC is the most important piece, followed by the speakers, then the pre-amp, then the amp, then powercords,then the power conditioner, then speaker cable, then interconnects, then the transport. I base this... | |
| Owners of Bel Canto Evo 200.2 Please Help What your (and mine) EVO 200.2 needs is 4 ohm speakers. I'm not really technically minded (so I don't pretend to know why) but when I heard the difference between an 8 ohm and a 4 ohm, well, lets just say it was obvious. I use a Tice Solo A/V and ... | |
| Best Cheap, Small, High Sensitivity Speakers Once again, I appreciate everyone's time and effort. You guys are great. Lots to think about. I remember listening to a tiny pair of proacs 10 years ago. I think I'll start there. Have a great holiday everyone! | |
| Will Bel Canto DAC-1 improve EAD CD-1000? Why go for the 1.0, when you can get the 1.1 for maybe a hundred bucks more used. I can't say enough about what the Bel Canto 1.1 has done for my system--open, liquid, very delicious DAC, a significant improvement from the 1.0. | |
