Mola Mola Tambaqui

+1

I don’t disagree- synergy is key…. In an all-tube system the Tambaqui dac could be great.  Also the volume control on that dac is also very good.  There are few dacs that have a very well implemented volume control.  My Jeff Rowland Aeris dac (w supercap p/s) is another…

@sutts Have you compared the Aries Cerat DACs to the Lampizator Pacific, which is another tube dac with much acclaim?

Not in the same system- one of my buddies has the Pacific, another has the AC…

Hollowman, [... ] you are an idiotic, grammarless, pathetic, lying troll.

Confuzed, toots! 'Splain wha y’all meanz by "grammarless"???

I have a Kula with built-in Tambaqui.  It is fantastic, no doubt.  Its transparency, clarity, and spaciousness stand out while also sounding relaxed, effortless, and in no way hot up top.  I prefer my dCS Paganini + Network Bridge combo, though.  To me it sounds a little more natural in tone and presentation.  At this level there are no losers, though.  It's all a matter of preference and I find it silly when people proclaim this or that piece to be THE best in the world.  I also have a Boulder 866 with built-in DAC and recently had a Lumin X1.  All very high performing and  enjoyable DACs.  But for me, it's dCS.
