This Bel Canto Dac3 is in very good condition and comes with the optional black faceplate. It also serves as a preamp for multiple digital sources and can drive monoblocks or stereo power amps directly. I used them with Bel Canto M300 monoblocks (also for sale) driving Morel Octave 5.2s and it sounded superb doing the same. This has been much lauded by the audiophile press and received a Stereophile Class A rating. It comes with the original Bel Canto double box, remote, power-cord and a copy (not original) of the manual. I am asking $1195 and only accept PayPal and ship to PayPal verified US addresses. Shipping will run about $40 (48 contiguous states; more for Alaska and Hawaii) and will be paid by the buyer.
