New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house

Wonder if any other new owners of this DAC are out there as I find it to be the finest digital playback I have heard to date. This is the first digital front end piece of gear I have owned that has transformed my music.

Ya, other digital gear does this or that better, but this Lampy breaks through to a new level of musical enjoyment. Clear view into the music helping the speakers just disappear. Only 24 hours of break in and the music flows so sweet, intimate and seemingly without boundaries.

Looking under the hood I see an impressive power supply with films caps and several high quality chokes. Point to point silver wired except for the digital and USB boards. This is a three tube player that is tube rectified. One has the option for SS rectification if desired.

Ya, I love this Lampy!

Agear, never said my dac is deficient. I said the USB input does not sound nearly as good direct from a computer vs the Offramp.

Is your "start another thread" on EA comment a put-down? Why? Why the anger? Are you telling what I can and cannot ask on this thread. Why go sophomoric on me and us here Agear?

Anyway, just learning and experimenting and asking questions. Let's keep it friendly.

The Offramp helped me get the most out of my Lampi. It has done the same for many with a multitude of computers. All different brands etc....

I looked up the iFi iLink and if this $250 converter is better than the Offramp, then every Aphile should have one and now! It would be the biggest value in digital audio my a country mile......if true.

Hi Gopher (Fred) it was a pleasure to meet you in the Lampizator room this week, your hospitality was appreciated. My friend Jwm (Jeff) is really looking forward to the Lampizator 5 DAC he ordered with your help.
