BEL CANTO DAC2.8 DAC/PRE-AMPLIFIER
The BEL CANTO DAC2.8 DAC/pre-amplifier is a DAC with fixed/variable output, allowing it to be used as a stand-alone DAC or a digital pre-amplifier. The DAC2.8 provides five digital inputs, one analogue input, as well as unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR outputs.
All Bel Canto products are designed and built in Minneapolis, USA.
Incredible audio performance, features, and flexibility, the DAC2.8 is musically open, detailed, and natural sounding.
HDR Core is the result of 20+ years of engineering that refines the digital to analog process using precision components: Ultra Low Noise Master Clocks, Advanced Asynchronous Interfaces, and Dual Mode Low-Noise High Efficiency Power Supplies. HDR Core technology is fundamental to every e.One DAC and Integrated product, creating the most realistic, open, and defined musical experience possible.
Simple, Elegant Interface
Designed to be functional and simple, the dual-functioning one knob interface is a joy to use. The programmable 8 character display works with it seamlessly to access all basic functions in a few clicks. The included 36 button infrared remote allows instant command functions and display editing.
Headphone Output
This low-impedance, high-output headphone amp circuit has been designed to drive any pair of high quality headphones with pristine clarity. You'll be amazed at the musical depth they bring to your headset.
Asynchronous USB Input
24/192 Asynchronous input works with the internal dual Ultra Low Noise Femtosecond clocks to provide unprecedented audio sound quality and impact from your computer audio sources.

We try and keep on top of our pricing, but it's a mammoth task for one person. So, if you see this product offered cheaper elsewhere, or you are offered it for less elsewhere (proof will be required) and you feel like supporting an extremely independent retailer, do get in touch and we will do our very best to match or beat wherever we can. We can't promise to do so, as there may some extenuating circumstances where we just wouldn't be able to, but we'll always do what we can.
Needs to be like for like - new for new, ex-demo for ex-demo, same colour and specs etc.
