Bel Canto Design DAC 1.5 DAC Digital Controller with LNS-1 Power Supply

This Bel Canto 1.5 DAC Digital Controller includes the upgraded LNS-1 Power
Supply ($ 495.00 option when I purchased it.). 
The condition is 9.5/10, mint condition and in working order. I just
upgraded my system and this DAC should go to another loving audiophile. Factory
packaging, remote, and manual included and the same applies to the LNS-1 Power
Supply and cable. I bought this DAC new.

From the Bel Canto Literature:

The Bel Canto Dual-Differential DAC 1.5
Control Center features an outstanding 122dB dynamic range. Including five
24/192 digital inputs and one 24/96 USB input, the DAC1.5 integrates and
controls all of your digital audio sources. The front panel features a single
multifunction control knob that selects inputs and controls volume level for
both the main outs and ¼” front-panel headphone jack. The headphone jack is
driven by a dedicated DAC/Amplifier circuit that optimizes the output and
eliminates any compromises in the main signal path. The DAC1.5 provides
remarkable performance, flexibility and control with a simple user interface,
easy to read display, full remote control and off-chassis power supply.

The foundation of the DAC1.5 is our
jitter-eliminating Master Reference Ultra-Clock circuitry that ensures that
jitter from any source is reduced below the audible threshold. The 24-bit
digital volume control is completely transparent and accurate throughout the
volume range. This precision continues with custom 0.1% audio grade resistors,
class-A output circuitry and low noise power supply components. The heavy-gauge
all-steel chassis design prevents mechanical resonance from compromising the
audio signal quality.

Green, low-heat, efficient isolated power
supplies and a finely-tuned analog output stage make possible Bel Canto’s
eco-friendly compact designs; Bel Canto music products are fine instruments
that are musically satisfying, discrete and sleek enough to fit any room.

About the LNS-1 Power Supply Upgrade:

The LNS1
is a low noise power supply based on the concepts behind the superb performance
of the VBS1 and powers one VB compatible unit. It features a low noise
rectifier and filter circuit driving a high performance 12V switching power
supply followed by LC filters to achieve a low 90 microvolt rms noise floor
over the audio band. This is more than 120 dB below the 12V output. It is
designed to enhance the performance of the FM1, DAC1.5, or CD2 products and
also serves as an excellent entry level option to power the DAC3.5VB mkII. When
upgrading the desktop power supply of the FM1, DAC1.5, or CD2 to the LNS1, it
is necessary to also purchase the 2-pin to 2.5mm barrel VB cable to connect the
LNS-1 to your source component. ( Cable is included with the LNS-1 ) .
