My Level 7 two box Lampizator DHT dac is up for sale. I'm downsizing. It is the rare two box Level 7 dac. Recently upgraded with generation 5 latest dual mono DSD (128x) and PCM board, the performance should be equivalent to Big 7. It has a more manageable form factor of 17"W x 13"D.
Highlights:
- It contains the latest dual mono DSD and PCM board from Lampizator. Supports PCM upto 32 bit/384 kHz. DSD 64x and DSD 128x.
- Almost 5 years transferrable warranty left.
- Supports tubes like 45, 2a3, 101D, 300B and many other variations. Plenty of flexibility of tailor the sound to your liking via tube rolling. I've used 300B for a bigger dynamic rock and roll sound and also used 45 tubes for vocal/acoustics music. Tremendous response to tube rolling.
- Comes with Jupiter caps.
- The reason this dac is a bargain is the world class volume control. I know people who have ditched their $5-$7k category leader preamp like the following in favor of Lampizator Level 7 analog active volume control:
- The Coincident Statement Line Stage
- Tube Research Lab DUDE preamplifier
- Melody Pure Black 101 preamplifier
- VTSP-3A(r03) Vacuum Tube Stereo Preamplifier
Unless you use a preamp costing north of $10k, there is a big chance that you'll be more than satisfied with the analog volume control of this dac. Btw, this dac only has spdif and usb input, no analog input. But it can be easily added by Lampizator for a reasonable cost if you wish.
Price is firm at $6295.
I've the original packaging, tubes, remote, umbilical cord etc. Buyer pays for shipping. Paypal add 3% if not using gift. More than welcome to audition and local pick up from 07306.
