Did 6moons post the BelCanto DAC3 review?


I thought it was in the coming up next category.

Kevziek, I agree with you. Your take on the DAC3 and its comparison to the DAC2 is pretty much the same as mine. I definitely disagreed with Edgar Kramer that the DAC2 "a large dollop of the same with a smidgen of warmth thrown and the fatter bottom end." In my opinion there's a considerable difference between the two. The DAC2, although good, is not at all in the same league as the DAC3.
Neil, the DAC2 is a tiny, light unit with a small power supply by comparison. The DAC3 has two decent size transformers, plus totally new clock technology and other technology and chips. The bass and dynamics of the two are nowhere in the same league.
Hey I'm dealer of BC and was one of the first to play with Dac2 and Dac3 I also totaly disagree with Edgar's review
I'm a good mate of his I guess thats the way Edgar heard
it through his system I also think big contribution to his conclusions is his Supratek pre amp which I have heard in his system also the Sony transport which getting on a bit
as far as my testing me and all the regular guys that visit me could not find one area that Dac2 would come close to Dac3 though Dac2 is a very nice unit
Just wanted to let anyone interested in purchasing Bel Canto gear about the False advertising of their "no Risk" Purchase plan.
I was interested in their Dac3 as an upgrade to the Dac2 I currently own. I purchased it directly through their website to audition in my system as there are no dealers close to my home. After about 8 days I decided to send it back under their no risk plan. Well I didn't hear from them for about a week after UPS tracking said they had received the return so I emailed them. Someone from shipping called me to tell me that they don't have complete credit card numbers when an Item is purchased online so I need to give them my cc number for the refund. (I wonder why they waited for me to contact them before they decided to let me know this?) Anyway, I was informed that I would be charged a 5% restocking fee. (nothing was wrong with the unit when I sent it back) I informed their shipping person that I thought a "no risk Purchase plan" wouldn't require a 5% restocking fee. He had no reply other than to say I would have to talk to Matt(i assume their direct sales rep) about that issue. I emailed Matt over a week ago asking for some info or the contact info of their CEO to discuss this with. I have not received any reply.

FYI - Matt is at CES this week.
