MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3?

I’m considering one of these. Please share your thoughts, especially if you’ve heard them. I will be streaming 70% and CD’s 30%

Jazz, R&B and classical in that order are my listening habits.

My room is 20x30 and very nice acoustics.

Current system:
Dali Epicon 8, Luxman 509X, PS Audio NuWave DSD, Cambridge CXC, Shunyata interconnects & Nordost speaker cable

Thank you!!!

@facten if you find yourself in Nashville you’re welcome to stop by my shop; I have a LampizatOr Golden Atlantic TRP on the floor along with other fine lines that may pique your curiosity.

Did anybody compare  MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3 to
Chord DACs? Like: Qutest, Hugo TT, Hugo TT2, Dave, Mojo, Hugo2?

Not directly. I couldn’t fall in love with my Dave, but it was probably just me.

I have owned Chord Mojo, Qutest w/ high-end linear power supply, old Qute HD w/ battery power supply etc. and now own Border Patrol SE. BP SE Dac sounds better to my ears even if BP supports only up to 24/96. (And Amber 3 and modded Orchid seem to sound better than BP SE according to many other Audiogon members)
