MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3?

I’m considering one of these. Please share your thoughts, especially if you’ve heard them. I will be streaming 70% and CD’s 30%

Jazz, R&B and classical in that order are my listening habits.

My room is 20x30 and very nice acoustics.

Current system:
Dali Epicon 8, Luxman 509X, PS Audio NuWave DSD, Cambridge CXC, Shunyata interconnects & Nordost speaker cable

Thank you!!!

The fuse does matter for sure.  The Vcap Odams with a. .01uf Vcap Cutf gives the best sound as I learned in my years of upgrading these units. I have also found a mix of the Vishay nude ZFoils and Audio Note non-magnetic tantalum resistors to be wonderful.

Thank you for your continued sharing of Knowledge on this forum! It is really valuable and highly appreciated.

Regarding the ShuGuang Treasure vacuum tubes CV181-Z, are rated at 0.6 amps. Do you now think they might do damage to the dac? (In addition to not sounding right?)

The treasure cv181 tubes aren't the same as the nos cv181 tubes, they are a 6sn7 tube, I don't know why they call them cv 181's.

Great! Thanks for confirming! 
Does anyone currently use the ShuGuang Treasure vacuum tubes CV181-Z? Did you find anything that betters it? (I have a pair inbound now)
