Lampizator Music KOMPUTER or MusicVault or MemoryPlayer64???

Juan, I have not heard the lampizator. I had considered ordering one for a while. But I decided to stay away from tubes. I was always SS. From reading hear on audiogon I decided to trie tubes. This is 7yrs ago or so. I bought really high-end stuff. Prefer not to name names. Had humming and other noise issues from day one. The Manufacture (owner) was at my home more then once. Also there was the heat and energy issues(not cost but waste). Then there is resale. Tube electrics go for pennies on a $ used. I had the dcs debussy and then the Emm labs dac 2x. I was very happy with both. Now with the da2 I am thrilled. My final choice. To me tubes are for audiophiles who wish to tinker. I just want to turn it on and it works perfectly every time. If I wish to tinker I listen to vinyl. I do have a yipsilon VPS-100 phono stage. It has tubes. I am Happy with it. But that's that.

Juan, I am sure the lampizator is a great dac. Also sure from what I have read that they are on the cutting edge and build a quality product. I considered their komputer. Though I realized there, I believed, with a little work I could do the same or very close for a lot  less money. As I said they are the reason I went Linux. So I am NOT knocking them in any way. I Have never  seen or heard just read audiophiles reviews like yours. All seem to love them. Leaving me with no doubt. All the best

I understand, Whatthe.  A local audiophile store where I have made many purchases through the years doesn't even carry tubes, so it wasn't until AXPONA 2014 that I was really exposed to them.  The funny thing is that when I saw your mention of the Yipsilon VPS-100 phono stage, I had to fight the impulse to look it up as a possible upgrade to my turntable setup.  I think my wife would have a nuclear meltdown if I spend another red cent on audio gear this year!

Cheers,


Juan
