Audio Mirror Tubadour V - A Few Words of Appreciation


I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the Audio Mirror Tubadour DAC V.

I’d been looking for a DAC for a few months. Got Chord Cutest, then Lab12 Reference. Each of them had strong and weak points, but they weren’t exactly something I was looking for.

After that I discovered the AMT. I’d never heard of that company before. The user reviews were positive, there was a 2-weeks return policy, basically there was nothing to lose, and I decided to try it.

It sounded nice at first, but not spectacular, and there was also too much detail and brightness, which triggered my tinnitus. I thought about returning it, but after a while it started to get better day by day.

When I finally integrated it into my main audio system (it was in my bedroom system for break-in purposes) the improvement in sound quality was unmistakable. The richness and clarity it brings to my music have truly elevated my listening experience. Can’t even ask for more.

So, I just wanted to thank Vlad for creating this little joyful high-quality piece, also wanted to thank him for exceptional service. 

Every time I listen to the Tubadour V, I feel great and absolutely satisfied. 

But I gotta mention, that in my case it took quite a while until it got broken-in, and started to sound unbelievably soulful.

Now waiting for its “big brother”, which is mentioned in AM’s website ;)

mact3333 I cant give you a comparison...but I can tell you the Tubadour should be in consideration. I don't like to call it warmer...but I'd say just has more ear pleasing  texture with all the detail.

I gotta agree with @scp, AMT-V’s sound is not warm, more like organic and enjoyable. The designer has a two-week return policy, which is extendable by request, if I remember correctly. The unit is built like a tank, I’ve been using it for more than a year on a daily basis, for 6-8 hours per day, and no problems so far.
