Guys, I am a bit confused. Is the new Engine 53 now standard for the GG2? How new is this new engine? The common view is, that this engine is superior to R2R engine, including dual mono R2R, in case of both GA TRP and GG2?
LampizatOr Golden Atlantic + TRP
- Thread starter Golum
- Start date
Rob with Lampizator NA confirmed that e53 is now the standard engine in the GG2. e53 is a derivative of the Pacific's e57, both being delta sigma. I first heard of e53 when I was inquiring about the GG2 upgrade in 2/2019. But I don't know if there is a definitive date when the switch was made.
Lampi does not have a date per say as an example fred robs partner has a gg2 I had st my place that used a older sigma called 42 think it did not do dsd as such had a chipless engine for it.
The 53 for me is beyond all past R2r and sigma chips
Not saying others may have there preference as well.

Thank you! Is R2R still available as an option? And a DAC with the new e53 does not use the chipless dsd engine. So it is not only PCM which is different, but DSD as well. Interesting.
Yes the new 53 does all on the one digital board
In the past I felt chipless bested the one board solution but not anymore. And this conclusion is from having both side by side

My grand children in spe were successful and hunted a KR together with the Genalex KT77, excellent medicine for my ears, even out of the box, even more curious what time will bring.

Earlier grey glass black base are meant to be the best, but I've never compared.

Funny meeting you here!
Im new here to the forum. I just pulled the trigger on my own TRP after spending ten days with it in my home. I hated it giving it back,but I will have my own soon! Super happy!
Very glad to hear you managed to get one! Welcome to the clubFunny meeting you here!

You should be able to use any of the 5 volt GZ34/GZ37/422A/5AR4/U52/etc rectifiers. Not 4 volt though I don't think.

Yep,def stocking up from that list. Fred did mention some hesitation on the GZ32 though. I dont believe we ever got around to establishing its viability one way or the other.
Im just starting to wrap my brain around the GOTL tube options,and now have to start all over with TRP.
