Bel Canto DAC vs. Perpetual Tech P3A?

I'm looking to use my old CD player as a transport and add a DAC. The units I'm considering: Bel Canto, Perpetual Technologies P-1A/P-3A with power supply, or the MSB Platinum. Has anyone who's heard the Bel Canto and the PT units also heard the MSB Platinum? It's very difficult to find an opportunity to audition them all, especially side by side through the same system.

I have had both the Bel Canto and PT. With my sytem the Bel Canto was more musical. Yes the PT was more detailed but I could not get involved with the music as I did with the Bel Canto. I like musicallity over precision and detail. I was using a Pioneer 525 DVD player. I bet if I used a better transport, it would all get even better. I sold my combo in search of something better. So far nothing. I am going back to get another Bel Canto DAC1 with a better transport. Try them both. I think they both offer a 10 or 30 day offer. Good luck.

Any experience with the Millenium DAC from Electro Visionary Systems (EVS)?? Check tweakaudio.com (mfr. site) and audioreview.com for RAVE reviews. The brand new upgraded model at $850 is due out in a couple of weeks. Looks very interesting!!
