Hi Chris, I guess, you compared the upgraded DAC3VBS/VBS1 against the DAC3.5VBS?. I read in Bel Canto website that there is an upgrade that takes the DAC3VBS to DAC3.3VBS, do you know anything about it.
yes I compared a dac 3 vbs to the dac 3.5 vbs. look at my thread belcanto cd2 dac three owners for sound differences. for the upgrade you get the new dac 3.5 board, but dont get the new display or the analog inputs.
The upgrade to DAC3.3 will give you the same sound quality as the DAC3.5VB, but you won't have the new display, you won't have a set of analogue inputs, but I can't remember what happens with the USB input vs the ST Fibre input on the new DAC. There would be too many chassis changes and display change to completely upgrade from a DAC3 to DAC3.5VB, hence the DAC3.3.
