I dunno if I would go with so many tube components in one system :)
Try to listen to them in combination and see if you like them

not all tube dacs have the same "flavor" and when considering bang for the buck, much subjective judgment goes into suc an assessment. as i have said before, wavelength and the original zanden are my favorite dacs. unfortunately, both are expensive. since all tube dacs have different degrees of "tubeyness", it is wise to be more specific as to your sonic requirements. |
I really love the LampizatOr Lite 7 DAC. It's quite amazing. Having heard Lambizator's top of the line Golden Gate DAC at AXPONA, I can highly recommend it. http://www.ayllonmedia.com/1/post/2015/06/the-lampizator-lite-7-dac-a-high-performance-machine-or-a-bloated-beetle.html http://www.ayllonmedia.com/1/post/2015/05/axpona-presents-audio-con-2015-an-audio-celebration-on-steroids.html |
