PRe3 ...“Le lecteur l’aura compris, c’est ici la vivacité et le tonus qui priment sur la sensualité. On peut dire que ces électroniques parviennent davantage à mettre de l’air entre les instruments plus qu’elles ne posent le silence entre les accords. On peut trouver plus apaisé comme restitution.
En revanche, dans un volume si compact et à ce niveau de prix, il est difficile de trouver des électroniques qui soient à la fois aussi transparentes, dynamiques, et qui, surtout, maîtrisent le bas du spectre avec autant d’aisance et de lisibilité. Sur ce critère les Bel Canto sont une révélation.”

"...the PRe3 can justifiably be thought of as passive where its audible contributions are concerned. "Pure water" as John Potis and I refer to it - but with remote control. In keeping with Stronczer's philosophy of minimizing impediments to the pure flow of data transfer, the PRe3 is as neutral as imaginable."

"In the final analysis, what I can say is that the PRe2 is a significant accomplishment for Bel Canto and a magnificent piece of work. Its essential musical character is quite chameleon like and accurately reflects what’s on the recording. Basically, the PRe2 won’t pretty up the sound - what goes in, comes out. From my long-term listening experiences with this unit, I can honestly say that the PRe2 is capable of rendering musical purity in such a way that listening to recorded music is big time fun and very easy to listen to through this unit."

"My first impression of the PRe2P’s sound was of its quietness. The line stage is as quiet as any I’ve heard, but the phono stage is spectacularly silent. That means every sound emerges from the proverbial black background, which makes it easier to listen more deeply into the music."

Listening tests revealed a broad range of qualities. First among these, in my opinion, is the ability of this preamplifier to transmit complex musical performances while revealing the musical nuances and micro-dynamics. Sonorities are richly rendered while at the same time have a natural quality which will bring the best out of top amplifiers. Bravo.

In the final analysis, John Stronczer's PRe6 fulfills his stated design objective to the T - squared, in fact: Total Transparency

A must READ for anyone looking to buy a new pre-amplifier] I found the Bel Canto Pre6 easier and more enjoyable to use with a wider range of components and discs.

The Bel Canto PRe6 is my choice to be the centerpiece of a truly high-end home theater.

Décrire les sensations procurées par cet ensemble s’avère une tâche bien difficile. Ce n’est pas le son d’une amplification à transistors, pas non plus celui d’un tube. C’est une nouvelle catégorie
dans laquelle se place le PRe 1 et l’EVo 200.2.

Avec le PRe 1 et l’EVo 200.2, Bel Canto, se remet en cause en adoptant deux technologies du 21ème siècle : la classe T à faible distorsion et la haute intégration.
