C7R DAC Integrated Receiver 
Amplifier Based on REF150 • Includes Phono Section!

Introducing the C7R DAC Integrated Receiver. A recent study shows that FM is still the most popular way of listening to new music, and we have the ideal way for your customers to do it. The C7R is loaded with inputs including two 24/192 SPDIF, two 24/192 TOSLINK, one 24/96 USB, MM Phono and Analog Line Level.

Output connections are WBT NEXTGEN Speaker Connectors, RCA Line Out plus headphone jack. The REF150S-based power supply includes the REF-series filter board. Add a Bel Canto CD3t Transport and you’ve got an entire system in two high-performance half-size chassis… just add speakers!

Debuting the e.One DAC3.5VB MK II

John Stronczer always looks at ways to improve Bel Canto products. The DAC 3.5VB MK II upgrade includes an improved analog supply that better isolates the PCM1792 converter. John also added a new, low-phase-noise main clock oscillator and the results startled him! These upgrades reduce the already low noise of the DAC3.5VB/VBS1 delivering an even more engaging, musical and communicative sound.

CD3t Front-Loading Transport, the Perfect System Companion

The elegant, matching front-loading CD3t Transport features a high-reliability slot-loading mechanism. It’s fitted with AES/EBU and SPDIF (BNC/RCA) reclocked digital outputs and low-jitter architecture. There’s also a 3.5mm IR control input and a sharp, bright 4-character display with six push-button controls. The remote has a comprehensive set of control features not available on the front panel and operates other Bel Canto products too. An efficient low-noise power supply uses a mere 3 watts in operation and the eco-friendly CD3t enters an ultra-low power <0.5W Sleep Mode after an hour of no activity.

Audio Revolution declares the CD3t a winner! “The CD3t would ideally be a terrific match with one of the Bel Canto DAC’s. The CD3t is an outright steal.  It is refined and elegant in both appearance and sound.”

You’d think three new products would be enough, but you’d be wrong!

The 24/192 Asynchronous uLink has Landed

While every technology depends on implementation, asynchronous operation and 24/192 are today’s buzzwords. Having worked it out to Bel Canto standards, the new uLink offers an async high-speed USB-to-digital audio interface for computer music files that provides a low-jitter, low-noise electrical environment that’s isolated from AC noise. Digital outputs include Coaxial SPDIF, AES/EBU, and ST Fiber with Bel Canto Light Link circuitry. The uLink does 24/192 on all outputs so… bring it on! The uLink works with Apple Macintosh and Windows PC computers and ships in about a month.

Four, Count Them, Four Separate Systems!

We took a larger suite this year and we’re showing four systems! System one, the big rig in  Suite 29-140 is a DAC3.5VB MK II/VBS1, PHONO3VB, REF500M monoblocks, a 24/192 Asynchronous uLink, CD2, MAC Computer, Unison Research Giro turntable with a Soundsmith Hyperion cartridge with Cactus cantilever, Joseph Audio PEARL 2 speakers, Cardas Clear cables, a Running Springs power filter and a Harmonic Resolution SXR stand. We know you’ll love the sound. System two consists of a DAC2.5, REF500S, CD3t, MAC Computer, uLink, Joseph Audio Perspective speakers and Cardas Clear cables for an equally elevated musical experience. System three is a C7R and CD3t on Joseph Audio Pulsar speakers and Cardas Clear cables.

You’ll find system four in the Cardas Room 29-140, Bel Canto components in the Polk Audio room 30-106 and the Davone Speaker room 30-223.
