At this years CES show in Las Vegas, Bel Canto have announced a slew of new DAC's, led by the superb new DAC3.5VB which significantly raises the bar for digital audio playback. The core DAC technology in Bel Canto’s High Dynamic Range converters is surrounded by Virtual Battery Power and the Master Reference UltraClock anti-jitter filtration allows the D-to-A conversion to occur in a pristine environment, isolated from outside interference from the AC power grid or broadband jitter induced noise. This results in Bel Canto’s famously musical, dynamic sound.

Between the optimization of their superb DAC, the Two-Stage Master Reference UltraClock™ anti-jitter circuit,  power supply options, and their totally transparent volume control, all Bel Canto DAC's provide high resolution, low noise, and incredible dynamic range.


The e.One DAC3.5VB 192kHz 24-bit DAC Control Center
Analog input • ST Glass-Fiber • Internal Virtual Battery Technology

Top of the e.One line of Bel Canto Dual-Differential DAC Control Centers, the DAC3.5VB integrates all your source components with peak-performance 126dB of dynamic range, providing unprecedented resolution, flexibility and control with a new, intuitive, easy-to-read display and user interface. The heavily-regulated internal VB power supply maintains an optimal electrical environment, dramatically reducing noise.

The core of all Bel Canto’s DAC's is their jitter-eliminating Two-Stage Master Reference UltraClock. The 24-bit digital volume control is completely transparent and ensures the highest resolution possible while VB technology delivers the quietest, most isolated power available. Low jitter, low noise, low heat, low power consumption, and effective power line isolation brings music to life with extraordinary nuance and power.

Features

  • 126dB dynamic range
  • 24/192 digital inputs: AES, ST Glass-Fiber, BNC, Coaxial RCA and TOSLINK
  • All digital inputs are galvanically isolated for even lower noise
  • Analog input
  • Two-Stage Master Reference UltraClock anti-jitter circuit
  • Low-noise full galvanic isolation on all digital inputs
  • Fully-balanced XLR and single-ended RCA outputs
  • Virtual Battery technology
  • 8-character alpha-numeric display for Volume, Sample Rate and Input control
  • Green, eco-friendly, low-heat, low noise, low power consumption

The e.One DAC3VB 192kHz 24-bit DAC Control Center
USB input • Internal Virtual Battery Technology

The e.One DAC3VB Dual-Differential DAC Control Center integrates all your pure-digital source components with five 24/192 digital inputs plus a 16-bit/44.1kHz USB input. Their core D-to-A technology provides a powerful 125dB of dynamic range, remarkable resolution, flexibility and control with an easy-to-read display and user interface. The internal VB power circuitry permits connection with our LNS1 (Low Noise Supply) or VBS1 power supply both which dramatically reduce noise even further.

Features

  • 24/192 galvanically-isolated digital inputs: AES, BNC, Coaxial RCA and TOSLINK
  • 16/44.1 USB input
  • Two-Stage UltraClock anti-jitter circuit
  • Low-noise full galvanic isolation on all digital inputs
  • Fully-balanced XLR and single-ended RCA outputs
  • Virtual Battery technology
  • Green, eco-friendly, low-heat, low noise, low power consumption



The e.One DAC2.5 192kHz 24-bit DAC Control Center
Analog Input • Independent DAC Headphone Circuit • 24/96 USB Input

The DAC2.5 Dual-Differential DAC Control Center is also designed to integrate all your source components, both analog and digital, with five 24/192 digital inputs, an analog input, and a 24/96 USB input. A ¼” front-panel headphone jack driven by its own DAC/Amplifier combo that optimises both headphone and main-out listening.

The DAC2.5 outputs a very healthy 122db dynamic range offering excellent resolution, flexibility and control with a new, intuitive, easy-to-read display and user interface. The advanced internal LNS power supply is powered via a standard IEC input.

Features

  • 122dB dynamic range
  • 24/192 digital inputs: AES, BNC, Coaxial RCA and TOSLINK
  • All digital inputs are galvanically isolated
  • Analog input and 24/96 USB input
  • Two-Stage Master Reference UltraClock anti-jitter circuit
  • Fully-balanced XLR and single-ended RCA outputs
  • New 8-character alpha-numeric display for Volume, Sample Rate and Input control
  • Green, eco-friendly, low-heat, low noise, low power consumption



The e.One DAC1.5 192kHz 24-bit DAC Control Center
Independent DAC and Headphone Amplifier • 24/96 USB Input

The DAC1.5 Dual-Differential DAC Control Center features an outstanding 122dB dynamic range and it too is designed to integrate all your digital source components with five 24/192 digital inputs, one galvanically-isolated 24/96 USB input, and like the DAC2.5, a ¼” front-panel headphone jack driven by its own DAC/Amplifier combo that optimizes both headphone and main-out listening.

The DAC1.5’s performance provides a complete turn-key package for your dream system. Their core D-to-A technology provides remarkable resolution, flexibility and control with a new, intuitive, easy-to-read display and user interface. The DAC1.5 sports a 12v off-chassis power supply.

Features

  • 122dB dynamic range
  • 24/192 galvanically-isolated digital inputs: AES, BNC, Coaxial RCA and TOSLINK
  • 24/96 USB input
  • Two-Stage Master Reference UltraClock anti-jitter circuit
  • Fully-balanced XLR and single-ended RCA outputs
  • New configurable display for 24-bit Volume, Sample Rate and Input control
  • Green, eco-friendly, low-heat, low noise, low power consumption

Devilsound 'Snowflake' USB DAC

"It looks as if I need to get one of these. It really made listening on my vintage system a pleasure, and I’m even thinking about taking this on the road with my headphone amplifier when I have to travel. If you’re still holding out for a reason to use a laptop as a source, here’s the ticket. Highly recommended."
