Bel Canto DAC 1 & 2 Modification Inquiries:
Please contact Doug Jesse of Reference Audio Mods East by email at referenceaudiomodseast@yahoo.com or by phone at (586)944-5611



Modifications are applicable to both the Bel Canto Dac 1 and 2 (all versions and revisions).

Modification Descriptions

-Power Supply Mods and Silver Wiring Harness ($250 installed)
Replace stock IEC connector with ACME Silver Cryo treated IEC connector for power inlet. Replace all diode bridges with RAM custom handmade exotic silver diode bridges. Replace all capacitors in circuit with the exotic Jensen 4-pole and Rubycon ZL series capacitors. We wire a custom Silver wire power harshness from the power supply board to the DAC board. Point to Point topology, no connectors for the best voltage signal integrity.

Audiocom Superclock 3 Reference Clock Upgrade ($295 Free Install!!)-
We add a reference quality jitter reduction circuit called a Superclock 3 , this a major improvement in overall sound! This replaces the master clock on the DAC and offers much lower jitter rate than the stock cmos type oscillator. Expanded soundstages and accurate instrument definitions for example are the many outcomes of this major mod component. Breathtaking performance is now possible!! Please give the unit well over 300 hours to break-in with this clock. Bonus! WE ARE NOW INCLUDING A PROPRIETARY C37 TWEAK TO THE CLOCK BOARD AND WE MAKE A VERY SPECIAL SILVER WIRE ULTRA LOW IMPEDANCE CABLE FOR HOOKUP. THE RESULTS ARE AMAZING! ESTIMATED COST FOR THESE TWEAKS ARE $75, THEY ARE NOW INCLUDED FREE WITH THIS MOD PACKAGE!!

DAC Board Input/Output board Upgrades ($275 Installed)
We replace the input coaxial RCA and Analog Output RCA connectors with the new WBT NextGen High performance RCA connectors. These are an eddy-current free design using very little metal and offer more of a "straight peice of wire" sound, rather than the grainy, itchy sound from the metal bulky stock connectors. Even aftermarket RCA's like vampire or cardas are not even close. We wire the WBT NextGen RCA's with Audio Consulting Silver wire and Cotton tubing. We replace about a large number of capacitors across the board with the incredible Rubycon ZA series caps. This really brings more life/speed/emotion into the music!
