New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house

Note that the BIG7 uses DHT 45s as output and preamp and the VC is only a resister step ladder. 0db is full bypass. Thiness is NEVER an issue with Lampizators as they are the meatiest Dacs

AS i have had my B7 for about 4 or 5 days now going 12 hours at 6 and 6 at a time . the pcm is as good or better than my msg stack . as it plays i am in amazement . the presentation is awesome its like hearing your music all over again. my home cpu stinks . and the dsd was good but not giving the wow that the cpm has. so i fired up my iMac and audirvana plus . i put on elvis 57 a dsd download . its only dsd 64 from analog . track 3 it has a simple clapping in left the channel . now clapping is a simple sound but so is a piano and most dacs stink at it this dac is giving me the texture of the hands as they clap. the only time i have heard this is with my msb. this may seem simple but its a milestone . this dac has given me my wow moment. i can hear into the recording so deep that gives me chills of realism . i now have my WOW moment
thanks winson , rob and most of all lukas for this device and at this price its an even better wow for me.

Does the Lampi sound like a typical tube product - i.e. thick & textured, focusing more midrange than frequency extension?

This was the "typical" tube sound of the 1980s .not at all of today's top-perfoming tube products.

And no, the Lampi B6 has extension and clarity in the top octaves that is quite impressive .qualities that I have heard many SS DACs not come close to matching. As for the bass, there is plenty of presence and weight in the bass without the "need" for blaring bottom octave output.

Madfloyd have you been living under a rock for 20 years?

I assumed Madfloyd had his tongue firmly planted in his cheek. That comment was so classically clichéd and tired.
