LAMPIZATOR THREAD COMMENTS REVIEWS TUNING
Levels are a long abandoned designation which was similar to Audio Note's model of designations. DACs with levels are all long discontinued and not representative of our current sound. The level 6/big Six was indeed an R2R DAC as was the originally Atlantic, however other than those all prior...- Gopher

LAMPIZATOR THREAD COMMENTS REVIEWS TUNING
You will be fine as long as you are using supported pentode tubes. It is not required that a pair (or quad) of tubes be matched. In our new generation DHT DACs you are able to use just 2 tubes given the voltages are digitally regulated rather than the result of a formula taking 4 into...- Gopher

You should have no issue using that Allo. Although I'm not familiar with the Allo, I see it is linux based and it should link up the USB with no issue or need for external drivers.- Gopher

Thanks for your interest guys. For the record, the Amber 3 DAC is in no way colored or euphoric. The decision of implementing tubes in our DACs wasn't done to sugar coat things or create a euphonic sound. On the contrary our DAC is beloved for it's ability to capture the emotion of a...- Gopher

Speaking as a someone with pretty significant sleep apnea, I can attest to getting far more pleasure form LampizatOrs than any mattresses. :ksc75smile: DecentLevi, The answer is a bit of both--implementation and our proprietary spin, is what makes our units special--much of our magic happens...- Gopher

We do not make a statement as to what comprises our engines and have advoided this on all of our dacs. The engines aren't off the shelf, but more importantly we want people to listen with open minds instead of deciding they do or don't like it equipment before they even hear it. As a couple of...- Gopher

I'm very glad to read of your early impressions of the cable. Keep burning it in, things are going to continue to improve over the next hundred hours or so. I may be able to organize a tour like i did with the Amber, but will need at least a couple of weeks before I'm ready for that as we're...- Gopher

Hello All, I'm glad to hear our lampizator dacs getting some attention over here. Yes while it's true our flagship dac tops out around $30k, we also pride ourselves on having class leading performance at each of our price points beginning with the Amber at around 2500. It is true that we've...- Gopher
