| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Based on my current experience with the Amber 3 at some 80 hours of burn in, I would say your Amber test unit is not burned in fully. Your comments about brighter and lack of depth point to this fact. If the unit only has 100-120 hours, then it ne... | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? I will once stock is fully burned in and I know she is a keeper! Then many upgrades will come 🤓 | |
| What creates the effortlessness in sound reproduction? All good points Doug. Many of us don't listen above 75-89db average weighted C when off the leach! | |
| What creates the effortlessness in sound reproduction? Not all 6.5 inch drivers are made, measure or perform the same. Â Look up the Dali drivers made in house. Â No need for 15 inch drivers for effortless sound. It can be done other ways. Â Also, products from Perfect Path Audio help greatly in this reg... | |
| The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up I used the USB only.  The Coax and BNC also sound great according to owners! ! | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Well the Amber 3 now has some 60 hours on it. What a burn in ride. The first 40 hours or so were hard on my ears. I really could not settle in and enjoy music as the dac was too forward and forced sounding. It was tight and constricted a tad also.... | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil Ralph is far smarter than me and I would never argue with him 🙂. | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil All I can say is it sounds better in my highly resolving system. It just does. Experience and try for yourself.  This is the only way to know for you . | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil Sorry. I can’t explain as I am more of a experiential sort of guy. I try and enjoy or not. I will add that it’s all about the synergy between the stock piece of gear and the cap you are thinking of adding. For example the stock MHDT Orchid dac is ... | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil It depends on the combo and position. The Vcap Odam & Cuft bypass are a match in heaven. Chris from Vcap turned me onto it. I will say it is magic on the output of a dac which is where I have used them on 5 occasions now. I am sure they would ... | |
| Another new DAC: Audio Mirror Duelunds won’t fit in the Orchid. You could/may fit a small .47-1uf value, but I would not use a value that low in the dac. Frankly the Odam & Cutf combo is every bit as good if not better. In this particular unit the Odam & Cuft bypass co... | |

| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Hope you get it in the morning rx8man. I have the Amber 3 up and running. It was nicely packed and in 5 minutes we have music! After 90 minutes of total play time I hear these initial differences compared to the upgraded Orchid dac, The Amber 3 is... | |
| BEST HARMLESS/SIGNATURELESS SPEAKERS CAPACITORS. You can just parallel the ODAMs for use.  Lower inductance that way and that can be a good thing.  I used two 4uf caps instead of an 8 uf for example. |
