Bel Canto Dac 3

Does this simply combine the Dac 2 with a pre amp? Is the Dac tube?

There are no tubes in the DAC3. It works very well as a preamplifier/DAC if you are only using digital sources.

AND is anyone able to definitively say whether USB is more accurate than S/PDIF (ie... is airport express an inferior technology to a direct USB ---> USB connection.)
