An excellent CD transport only, ideal if you already have a DAC. On demonstration at Criterion Audio Cambridge.

The Bel Canto e.One series was originally inspired by new technology which enabled exceptionally high performance from a compact chassis by using advanced switching power supplies and amplifier technologies. The compact size imposes a focused design aesthetic where the chassis is stripped down to its essentials to achieve ultimate performance and functional goals. The compact, strong, rigid chassis also brought about benefits in mechanical performance, reducing the resonant profile of the chassis without resorting to expensive and massive construction.

e.One components range across source components, DACs and amplifiers. At each price point they offer truly exceptional performance.

The CD3t CD transport provides the most direct digital path to your DAC with a convenient slot load drive. With a high quality CD transport driving SPDIF and AES/EBU digital outputs, it provides a low jitter, maximum quality source to drive your DAC.

Bel Canto’s e.One CD3t plays your CD, CDR, CDRW collection with accuracy and simplicity. Connect to your DAC Preamp using AES/EBU XLR, SPDIF BNC (RCA adaptor included) for an accurate data transfer of 44.1kHz/ 16bit.
