    Lampi GG 512dsd + 44k + 48k superclocks + RTR PCM + KR242 + grounding post + SGM server----

    This makes me reconsider if I should opt for the dsd512 and superclock options now as I don't have an appropriate source for such a task yet and don't have a definite plan how to get one. SGM outside my budget and diy pc not an option for me. To try out dsd I could always use the dsd256 included...

    KR 242, Elrog 300, px4, px25, EML and KR 5u4g, and KR 274b

    Those are the ones I have. I also had a short stint with a GG that had the Duelund. What can I say? I liked them both. I do not dare to give a reliable test report on what differences there were, soundwise. At that time I wasn`t really A/B ing them.

    Lampizator Superkomputer

    Hang on.. Lampizator's very own Supercomputer cannot make use of the DSD512 engine of the Golden Gate?

    KR 242, Elrog 300, px4, px25, EML and KR 5u4g, and KR 274b

    Wow, thanks for your generous offer. My GG will go back to Poland this Saturday and it will come back with the 242 setting, even now my GG does have the 242 setting. It shouldn't be a question whether they work in the GG, but just how well they work. In other words, it'll probably be three...

    Would like to find a pair KR 242. I will eventually order from Kron, but maybe someone is sitting on a pair and not using them. Trades are possible too, px25 I.e.

    Hi Norman, you are saying that the separate dsd512 engine will sound superior to the r2r/dsd256 standard combo even when only using dsd up to 128? Have you A/B ed this yourself already?

    Lampi GG 512dsd + 44k + 48k superclocks + RTR PCM + KR242 + grounding post + SGM server----

    Yes, but I don't know when or if I ever get a powerful enough computer to render dsd512.

    Thanks Mike, superclocks are just for the usb input, as I just learned. Can you show a pic of Lukasz grounding solution? Cheers Chris

    Lampi GG 512dsd + 44k + 48k superclocks + RTR PCM + KR242 + grounding post + SGM server----

    I'll be sending my GG back to Poland in a couple of days to get rid of the distortions I've been having since the beginning and which could not be fixed in a first attempt at Lampi's. Since my GG needs to go back anyway, I would like to upgrade all that is worth upgrading. Change to R2R...

    KR 242, Elrog 300, px4, px25, EML and KR 5u4g, and KR 274b

    I had a friend over last night who I trust 100% when it comes to critical listening. Sorry if I remain a bit vague here. What I wanted to say is that he agreed with me that the anni KR 5u4g is more transparent, less veiled and dark and thus the better tube in my system than the Takatsuki. Not...

    KR 242, Elrog 300, px4, px25, EML and KR 5u4g, and KR 274b

    This sizzling noise the KR 5u4g makes is starting to annoy me. Grrrrr... Anyone else experiences this? Luckily the Tak is quiet.

    KR 242, Elrog 300, px4, px25, EML and KR 5u4g, and KR 274b

    Noooooooo, read my post again. YMMV...-:)) The KR does make some crankling hissing sound though which is audible from a foot or two away or so. Nothing dramatic and no obvious influence on the sonic results, just wanted to mention it. The Taka is dead silent.

    KR 242, Elrog 300, px4, px25, EML and KR 5u4g, and KR 274b

    Interesting findings today. I have been using the KR 5u4G together with the px4 for the last two weeks and I liked this pair so much that I didn't think about changing anything. Today though I had some time and put back the Tak recti. My favorite recti so far. Well, not so much anymore. Somehow...
