New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house
The Offramp helped me get the most out of my Lampi. It has done the same for many with a multitude of computers. All different brands etc....I looked up the iFi iLink and if this $250 converter is better than the Offramp, then every Aphile should ...

Wisnon I mean. I am sure you are full of wisdom however!

Wisdom, great interview and I love the way Lucas tests and listens....love it!I love his dac and thus this thread. I am always open to the best stuff out there including the Offramp!

Agear, never said my dac is deficient. I said the USB input does not sound nearly as good direct from a computer vs the Offramp. Is your "start another thread" on EA comment a put-down? Why? Why the anger? Are you telling what I can and cannot ask...

Agreed Steve

Interesting point Steve. Love to hear what the Lampy builder would say as his tube dac, is digital, and quite special. As for a converter?

Has anyone compared the Lampizator USB converter to the Offramp? The Lampy website sure makes it sound like the best? It is a tubed unit which is interesting. I do know this. The Offramp makes the USB input on my Lampizator 4/4 dac sound almost br...

Yes, all parts in all areas are important. Mills MR and standard Duelund resistors are both good choices for use in the RC networks of your speakers. You will be thrilled!

What preamp?

Tas, I think the standard Duelund resistors will be perfect for the RC network position they are in. While parts quality make a difference in this position, not as much as the cap in the direct signal path of you tweeter. The choices you made for ...

Tas, I looked at your diagram and the smaller 2.7 and 2.2uf caps are not bypass caps, but part of the resistor/capacitor Zobel networks on your tweeter and midrange drivers.In these RC or Zobel networks a resistor and capacitor are linked in serie...

Ok here is an update on the cap and resistor upgrade I did on my speakers. First I want to say to those who feel caps and resistors don't need to burn in and that any changes we hear are our ears getting used to the different sound. Your wrong! Ha...

Charles, are you absolutely sure your speakers don't have Zobel network parts....Have you looked all around? They may indeed....?

In addition bypass caps are usually a much smaller value such as .01 - .68 uf values.....the 5uf or so tweeter cap would not be bypassed with 2 or 2.2uf value!

Tas, not sure what you mean about posting it on your Agon page. You don't have such a page and would need a virtual system set up.....I think I have this right?You can contact me through the Agon system and we can share ideas and progress.
