Eversolo a6 and Lampizator

Anyone using innuos with Lampizator?

Agree with others, give your DAC the input signal it deserves. You can find a good condition Lumin U2 Mini or Innuous Zen Mini for well under $2,000, and those would pair well.

If I’m gonna do it, I want to get it right the first time.

so I’m thinking zen mark3.

without spending to much.

@52tiger I have an Innous Zenith Mk3.  Wonderful DAC.  I really felt no need to upgrade other than a strong desire to go explore Lampizator.  

@lalitk I'm a tube amp guy and very dedicated to the tube sound.  My thoughts:  Go SET.  So DHT.  Of course that means you need very sensitive speakers.  I consider the high power push pull tube amps a compromise and often not much if any better than SS.  (remember I'm a tube amp buy so I believe tubes are better than ss, not looking to argue that, I respect the opinion of SS guys).  

So adding the tube DAC is tubes on top of tubes and I wasn't sure how it would work.  I was first attracted to the Golden Atlantic, TRP because I've owned amps that used the same tubes and have a lot of tubes I could roll in.  But I graduated from those amps to DHTs like the 2A3 and 300B.  I decided to go with DHTs for the Lampizator and avoid buing one and then upgrading later to other, thus the Golden Gate 3.  

So I put a pair of EML 300Bs in it when it got here and after just one hour the sound was bigger, more open and airy, and significant more punch.  I put in some less expensive PX25s and while still nice, a lot of the sounstage and punch went away.  

Long discussion to finally get to the answer to your question, but I'd say if you are going to go with a tube DAC, think about the GG3 as the DHT based DAC that really adds a lot.

My dac is a tube dac, I’m also a tube guy
