better? its probably up to the user. it's just a different method of cast control. there's heaps of reviews on TackleTour about the different DC versions - some good, some bad.
i've always wanted a DC reel, but only for the whine they make when casting haha

I've got two baitcasters one with dc and one with out
the one with the dc works and casts much better than
the one that doesn't.

Dc

Dc mean Digital Control. What i know is that you will really feel the difference when fishing in a windy condition. From where i am from we seldom get windy condition, but i heard in Australia sometime it can get really windy.

When the wind is blowing toward you when you make a cast, most likely you will end up with a bird nest in your spool. With DC it help to compensate on it but not 100%.
