Bel Canto C5i Integrated amp/DAC

Bel Canto's new C5i is a combination integrated amplifier / DAC creating a true digital media center solution.  Unlike the previous s300iu model, which is basically an integrated amplifier with USB-only input DAC, the C5i has in addition to USB several S/PDIF inputs. Volume control is now managed in the digital domain, which Bel Canto claims superior to s300i's analog attenuation.  Vinyl lovers can also enjoy the C5i with its MM phono input (with the s300i, you either choose the USB or phono board).  All in one compact unit.
