| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD How can there be a guess from them, when I didnt meet the people till a year later and I dont even know the technical people there? The tread clearly shows a 2012 discussion.Quit while you are ahead, you are spreading misinformation. It seems you ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Andrew, did you read post 135?Those people were wrong. Cant see the forest for the trees. Class A voltage, Class B or Class D current drive. Simples.All the engineering egghead speak cant get away from that helicopter view.Been there, done that, b... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I got it from actual listening at Shows and from persuing forums like A-Asylum. There is a huge current dumping thread there.I was interested in getting a Nakamishi Stasis amp once upon a time, as I know of Nelson Pass accomplishment with Stasis p... | |
| Happy users of SPDIF in Lampizator Big 7's? JB, lots of free DSD tracks out there to sample (NativeDSD among others) and you can always rip your SACD via the PS3 angle. | |
| Happy users of SPDIF in Lampizator Big 7's? Both input are great. Your problem will be that the B7 ONLY does DSD via USB, NOT spdif. PCM can take both, not DSD. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD The amps are not SOTA, as they essentially use the Threshold STASIS tech, which was an adaptation of current dumping. Class a voltage combined with class D current. The older techs used class B current.The complaint about Devialet is that they don... | |

| Who is using Dirac? A poster (DJ) jumped ship and is now using Acourate.A dealer buddy of mine has said that every DRC he ever tried sucked the life out of the upper bassÂ…the foundation of the music.For him, even the DSpeaker AM 2 hardware did this. | |
| Any DAC comparable to my Linn Akurate CD ? Ciao Maz65,I am pretty sure you can test drive the Lampi in Italy.Contact Lukasz and see what he can arrange. A Big5 may be your kinda sound... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt,How can you NOT know CAD? They are a top quality British digital audio player. LoL | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Scott, is it your opinion that the internall SSD sounds better than an SDxc card? I was told otherwise, but have no direct experience.The thing is that a 500GB SDXC card in now about GBP400 and in a year or 2, 1 TB will likely cost that amount. Th... | |
| As good as Ayre QB-9 DSD but with SPDIF input? NKBGThe Lampi L4 does show up used from time to time as people upgrade to the L5, L6 and L7. The Lampi US guys even have this info from other customers activley seeking to upgrade, so ask them.The L5 used would possibly be a steal! |
