| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Steve,Have you heard the Big Six before, or better yet have you heard it in your system? I have heard both, and your OR5 at last year's Newport and RMAF shows. The sound was solid and I enjoyed the pairing with Vapor, but it was driven from a tube... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt,I'm glad you are digging the Big Six, like Charles said the Lamp DACs are music makers, they present the music in a natural way that many DACs just can't do. I'm sure the Empirical, Berkeley, Auralic, and many other DACs might measure better ... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Grannyring,I'm happy that the Offramp/Dynamo combination is working so well for you. Like I said before it doesn't surprise me at all, I've heard only great things about Empirical Audio gear and their effectiveness in reducing jitter.I am a bit su... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Grannyring,I think the USB input of the Lampizator works VERY well when paired with a quiet server. I have one friend that tried my L4 and another L4 owner with a Sonicweld Diverter/Offramp4 and both preferred the music via the USB output through ... | |

| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Grannyring,Does your L4 have Duelands or Jensens? My L4 had Jensens and I found some music sounding a tad too soft/polite with decreased dynamics and PRAT. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house g,Yes, my L4 had the stock Mullard ECC40 tubes. If the ECC40 tube was that deficient in sound quality, what gave the L4 its 3D magic and sweetness? Is the Bendix 6900 and others you listed drop-in replacements for the ECC40? And with those others ... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house FWIW, I still have a highly modified (software/power filter) 2010 MM and LPS. But in my system, my CAPs based server sounds better paired with the Big Six. Not worlds better, but definitely better, just smoother, quieter, and more detailed through... |
