I've got here a nearly new, gorgeous, Lampizator "Lite 7" DAC *with DSD* (the DSD is a completely separate, discreet circuit - no chips!) in as-new condition with full five-year warranty.This DAC was used by the Lampizator importer in his personal system for some time but carries the full warranty. (And the Lampizator "seal" is intact - it's never been opened.) This is not your father's Lampizator! GONE are wood-mounted parts in favor of PCBs with meticulous layout. The perspex case is very cool. I used the DAC with HQPlayer converting PCM on the fly to DSD128, which is, I think, a great way to use it. Tubes pictured are globe 45s but what's included are the stock PsVane 101s. I can honestly say this DAC is the best digital source I've heard, including the Bricasti M1 which I had in-house. Packaging is "factory" but it has a DIY feel. But it is quite secure. The price is FIRM for now as I am taking as much loss on the listed price as I'm able to tolerate for the moment. Read the forums and you'll see people preferring this DAC to $30K MSB stacks, other uber-expensive DACs, and very expensive analog rigs. (As for me, I believe that acoustic music recorded in analog is still best replayed that way, which is why I'm selling it - I'm going to keep the turntable and won't allow myself to have both.)
