Lampizator announcement: launch of our all new TOTL HORIZON DAC

Is this fix available for all Pacifics? Can it be done by an end-user?
Would this fix mean my Pac will handshake with my Extreme when I turn it on and off at night. Having to reboot my Extreme every time i turn my Pac off to save the tubes is a bit of a PITA...

I never had a problem with my Pacific but FWIW, a quick fix for your Pacific is called the Horizon.;)

Very likely it would.

QUESTION:
Do we know if the 7119/E182CC tube is compatible with Horizon? It is a Noval with, I think, same pin layout as 5687 (can anyone confirm?). So I assume a 5687 tube adapter works. It's not listed under compatible tube types on Horizon but its a drop in replacement for a 5687 on a lot of amps that use 5687

There are a lot of "reasonably" priced NOS tubes of this type to check assuming it works.

It is listed!
And it is a great tube.

I thought he said 2 per week for 4 years

He said one every other day.

"The first commercial Horizon shipped yesterday morning. Second - thursday. And then one every other day untill the order pipeline is done. By end of March we will have 25 horizons in the "field" . By end of April 40. By end of May: 55 to 70, after we open the second factory building. There will be something to talk about. I am sure.
We will show them in Munich just got my space confirmed."

I'm in the queue in the first 30, but not the first 15. So toward the end of the month (now that it is March!). Larry
