    Default Source for 12V PSU for Bel Canto CD2

    Can anyone recommend a good linear 12V PSU to use with a Bel Canto CD2? While there are offerings by BC themselves they appear hard to come by in Europe and are very pricey. Any alternatives out there? Thanks...

    I used to have a Bel Canto CD2, and the Bel Canto power supplys are great the VBS is good if you need to power a dac or preamp, but the best power supply is the VBL, that is the best Bel Canto one and the one I had to power my CD2, you can really hear a difference with it over other PSU's.

    try Tony at Coherent Systems, he's the man for Bel Canto bits.

    no completely different , he only made it up as a favour really but its been doing the business

    the Lns1 is the one made by bel canto as in this thread , if you put a wanted notice on pink fish media you might get one as they were quite common
