Lampizator Poseidon DAC

Build to order in black or silver. Our newest DAC is a masterpiece of good sound and convenient features. We have shown this DAC at FLAX, Axpona, THE Show, and Pacific Audiofest this year. Our resulting sound got rave reviews.

Steve Rochelin of Enjoy The Music wrote "The sound was sensational! In fact, my wife and I went back to this room a few times to relax and... enjoy the music."

Allen Taffet of Absolute Sound wrote "frankly no other system in Florida combined the scale, musical revelations, and visceral impact of this one."

Customer who bought the show Poseidon wrote "The sound is so “everything” that all I have left to say is thank you!!."
 

Key highlights
