Bel Canto DAC 3/pre amp with fitted VBS board (Virtual Battery Supply)

[ianlenco]

I had this up for sale a while ago but decided it was too good to let go. Since then I have sold the preamp I was using with it and gone to an integrated with built in DAC. This is superior as a standalone DAC but I like the compactness of a one box solution so I've decided to sell.
This is the more expensive version of the DAC 3 as it has the VBS board. The outboard power supply was built by Alan Firebottle - I bought the DAC 3 from him. Like other Bel Canto gear it has excellent build quality. In first class condition except for a slight scuff on the external power suppy.

Choice of fixed or remote controlled variable output so can act as an excellent pre for an all digital system or a standalone DAC. Remote, manual and original packaging included.

£600 plus £18 postage or you are welcome to collect.

When I bought this from Alan in July (actually an exchange of goods) he was asking £650 plus p&p.

I have reduced the price by £50 which I think is reasonable for the use I have had from it. Nevertheless I am open to sensible offers for this excellent DAC/pre amp.

Would you consider swapping for Naim Nac 32-5 and Snaps in very good cosmetic condition? Pm

Hi Matt,
Thanks for the offer but I am fine with my current amplification.

[ianlenco]

OK, no sensible offers so try a cheeky one :)
