Hi,
Thanks for all your answers. Jim brought his DAC and transport over this weekend. It was really great hearing it in my system. Needless to say I'm now a committed Lamp fan! It provided all my system was lacking. My system sounded like music for the first time. I had gone to see Diana Krall at the Fox here in St. Louis. Fabulous concert by the way. If you like her CDs she is better in person.
I came home that night and listened to my system with the PWD II. It sounded very good I thought. Then came Jim with his Lampy. At first listen it was hard to tell the difference but after about an hour things really started to warm up and Diana was in the room. With the PWD the sound was there and it was like a black and white photo, well defined nothing missing and sharp details.
Then the Lampy, the sound simply became music and instead of black and white Diana was there in 3d Color. Fun to listen to and I might say highly addictive.
After Jim left, (he was kind enough to leave Lampy there over night) another friend and I listened till well after midnight. We couldn't get enough.
Now Jim lives in Illinois across the Missouri and Mississippi from me. I texted him,"That during the night the rivers had both flooded and so it might be a month or two before I could return his beloved DAC and Transport."
He texted back, "That was ok he'd buy a boat and come get it!"
Glory,
Not on a fishing trip. I fish not for Glory but Giant Blue Cats only!
Thanks for the cable tips but there is not a bass problem in my system with the Lamp or PWD. It is amazing how good the Signal Cable really sounds. I was just concerned about tube bass vs solid state but no concerns now.
I'm ordering a Level 5 and Transport right away.
Thanks for now and thanks Jim,
Steven
