New Bel Canto REF600M using NCORE

Of course, things made in Minnesota are always best .

Yes lots of great audio gear out of Minnesota over the years. 🔊

Bill k,

There are too many confounding factors to compare the new REF600Ms against other amps. I replaced my dac at the same time I installed the amps: Bel Canto DAC2.7.

I have owned VTL, Cary, Nuforce, Marantz Reference Series MA-9S1, and others. What I can tell you is that this system, with DEQX and Joseph Audio Pulsars sounds terrific. The sound is richer, more detailed, and has wonderful treble. The cymbals shimmer, with decay previously missing. The singers' voices are easier to understand, and there is no smearing or harshness to their voices.

You should hear them in your own system. Color me very pleased.

Mark - thanks very much for sharing your impressions! The Joseph Audio Pulsars are definitely outstanding speakers.

I just received my second pair of REF600M amps.
