Description

LampizatOr ATLANTIC 3 TRP DAC – The Tube Roller’s Paradise DAC!

The first original Atlantic1 DAC was made 5 years ago, to the memory of Lukasz Fikus’ sailing trip across the Atlantic ocean. It was meant to put in one attractive package as many features of the most desirable audiophile wish list – as possible.

From early 2019 we redesigned the Atlantic, mainly to enable the last missing feature from that wish list – ability to roll (change) tubes. The use of octal base pinout, compatible with power tetrodes and pentodes, plus only one and common 6,3 V heater voltage, enabled us to offer tens of different tube types to be used alternatively.

Hence the new name – TRP = Tube Rollers Paradise. Just one internet tube store offers 120 tube models compatible with Atlantic-3 TRP DAC. Add to it the multiplication of NOS brands etc. We tested TRP with circa 20 tube types, and frankly we haven’t found one that plays bad.

Moving upwards from Amber and Baltic, you get the first DAC that doesn’t use so called small signal tubes but instead – we use the overkill power tubes, acting like small signal. They are way off the typical operating points used in amplifiers, and that’s why these tubes in our DAC are not stressed, not running out of steam, but instead acting with unheard-of authority, ease, grace and dynamics.

The resulting sound character of this DAC is a whole notch better than obtainable from small tube. You owe it to yourself to hear what such pentode system can do. It would be like the first ride in a V8 car. There is – simply speaking – no going back.

The main features of this DAC are:

  • Tube based power supply
  • Choke CLC filtering
  • Copper output capacitors
  • Engine ELEVEN with DSD512x (from November 2022 with name change to Atlantic3)
  • Balanced or Single ended – by order
  • Possibility to add full preamp feature with remote control, display, and resistor ladders
  • Truly balanced configuration, not merely an SE circuit with phase doubler at the end
  • Analog preamp inputs
  • Newest USB firmware for Linux and Windows
  • Standard fine EL34 or KT88 tetrodes from current production
  • New phenomenally musical engine of digital conversion called Engine Eleven
  • New OLED display, no more LCD
  • Software driven signal routing, no more relays
  • Total muting to keep switching noises down
  • Plays every digital file known
  • No drivers needed for any computer operating system

The standard top cover on Atlantic 3 TRP DAC is CHARCOAL BLACK (not copper as on the pictures)
