Lampizator announcement: launch of our all new TOTL HORIZON DAC

[rau]

Playing Buddy Guy last couple hours , these TungSol sound better to me than 5687 more weight to the music

 

[rau]

I don’t own one yet anyways but lampi has been making real balanced for a while now.
its digital has been bal as well.

I know it's true bal because I asked this question since my whole system is bal .

Have you listened to the Horizon both balanced and unbalanced?

Not yet

I wish Lukasz could comment on SE vs Bal soundwise, Most manufacturers will suggest one over the other . Like my amplifier if SE is used it needs to go through another stage to convert to Bal . Is Horizon using op amps to convert or transformers?
Is there a sonic diffrence?

 

[Alrainbow]

Not yet

make a good strong double expresso on your very cool machine

caffeine makes for better focus

That would be early morning, on the way to the espresso machine, pre flat white and plowing.

Tuckia and Goran could test , Oh wait they are still waiting lol

 

[Tuckia]

I'd be happy to test. Just drive it up here. Oh, bring the Taiko and a box of Band-Aids too. My ears are still bleeding from the laptop server. Dreadful thing.

Eventually our H wait will be over . On another note your snow plowing will be over when you reach the state above

Lampizator DACs (except for the single ended only ones) have always been built truly balanced without op amps or any such gimmicks. Yoda has written previously about the balanced designs for the Pacific, Golden Gate, Big 7, and Atlantic TRP. He would not compromise the design.
I can’t say I’ve read this about the Horizon, but I sincerely doubt he’d ever compromise his work of a lifetime (so far) in such a way.
