Bel Canto DAC 2?

Submitted by mmole on

Does anyone have any experience (positive or negative) with the Bel Canto DAC 2? I recently upgraded my transport to a Theta Carmen II but I'm not taking advantage of the capabilities of the new transport by sending the signal through my old Sonic Frontiers DAC.

Thanks.

MPAA spokesflack Brad Hunt tried to sell a roomful of Hollywood tech types on "plugging the analog hole." Ought to be a slam dunk, right? Apparently not. The group groaned out loud when he said that retailers would have to educate consumers on its implications and after more probing questions, he got this one: "This is a room full of people whose living depends on this working. You're getting pushback to the point of hostility. If you can't sell this to us, how are you going to sell it to the target 16–45 demographic?"

Gomez is, like, really worth your while, eh?

Gomez.

I am most familiar with "Split the Difference" and "Liquid Skin," with the nod going to "Split..."

However, I have "Bring It On" on vinyl and it is mui bueno.

I am least familiar with "In Our Gun," but you never know when one of their discs will take you over.

Last year, they did a live album that I haven't gotten yet - I'm saving it for when I really need it.

Anyway, listen to "Split the Difference" five times and it will move into your top 100 discs list and give you much pleasure.

Subcription reminder damages magazine!

Hi, all,

I've been a subscriber to Stereophile since 1984. I have kept all of my back issues, and although I'm not "anal" about keeping them pristine, I like to keep them in nice shape.

Occasionally, over the years, I have neglected renewal of my subscription until the "reminders" started arriving.

Prior to the past couple of years the magazine would be sent in a poly bag or wrapper, and the subscription reminders were seperate sheets of paper mailed with the issue.

Triangle speakers

Submitted by gkc on

I bought the original Celius a few years ago, along with its (then) matching subwoofer, and thought it the best bargain I had ever encountered -- and I have been involved with this hobby (obsession?) since the 1960's. I have owned K-horns, JBL Paragons, KLH 9 electrostatics, Altec A-7's, and, more recently, Mirage M1-si's and Dynaudio Evidence Masters. I sold the Celius when I bought my current favorite, the Triangle Volante 260. I was going to buy the first upgrade to the Celius (reviewed by ST about a year ago), but the dealer convinced me that the Volante was a better speaker.
