Lab 12

I ended up visiting Fidelis in Nashua NH.    Awesome store   They are the distributor for LAB 12.    I used several of their products while demoing the DAC 1.  Really good stuff !!!!  Build quality is excellent.   After spending a little while with the DAC 1,  I ended up buying one.  

Check out LAB 12 , excellent gear !

The Lab 12 Gordian power conditioner struck me as a very interesting design.  But it seems to have not enjoyed much "uptake" in the audio community.

that isma cool looking device but the proprietary cables are expensive and that's probably why.  I would put my amp, preamp ,and dac on it at the least and the cables are $400 ea

The build quality is great , very tough industrial strength chassis.   Nice fit and finish on all products.   I was impressed by their whole line.   

It always makes me happy to hear about someone actually sitting down and listening to something before buying instead of the hit and miss guesswork that seems to permeate the audio landscape. Enjoy.
