Has anyone moved on from an Auralic Vega to Lampi?

[Mickey_Sg]

Hi everyone,
I've enjoyed my Auralic Vega (1st generation) for the last 7 years or so, but i recently heard a Lampi Atlantic in an unfamiliar system. It sounded absolutely fantastic; musical, holographic, nuanced etc, and has got me wondering whether it's time for an upgrade. Has anyone already gone that route, and care to share their thoughts on how much of a difference it made?

My current system is NAS -> Laptop w/Jriver -> Auralic Vega Gen 1 -> Jadis JPS 2 -> Jadis JA80's -> Wilson Benesch Vector

Thanks in advance for your comments,
Mick

Hi Mick,

Actually i did this swap and those two toys are just not comparable by any means. You live with Vega thinking its a nice/good DAC until you hear Lampi and the entirely new world opens up.
Majority of diff you grasped already so no need to go into details.
Go for it as you won’t regret it at all.
Which Lampi - that is another question but all models (and i heard them almost all) are top notch performers.

Cheers,
G
