| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house I already have a deposit in on an Empirical OverDrive SE DAC audition.

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Erikminer - It's not my house, it's our house and she works just as hard as I do, if not harder. So that thought process doesn't apply in my house.
