At least in my GG1 I didn't like the T100 too much.
I still pefer the 242 by quite a margin ;)

I tried KR 242 with my B7, very good tubes indeed but too much gain in my setup, kept PX4 for 2 years , than replaced them with RK300B .

Prefered PX4 to them, RK 300 B are even better imho.

Ahhh Marslo,

The Pac is a different animal and you will find your tube preferences will likely shift!

I speak from personal and also2nd hand experience.

Try and you will see. You are local, so you can borrow tubes from Lampi to try and even do temporary exchanges with Adam if he has different tubes. You will find that a rolling session makes for a GREAT party with fellow audiophiles and some surprises are guaranteed!
 
Hello Adam

I believe the tube heating in the GG1 is not up to the task for T100 as each tube takes 2A.

This sounds plausible.
As I have T100 tubes in one of my amps anyways, I will be able to try them again, once a chance for a Pacific demo should arise :rolleyes:

Glad to hear you say the RK300b are your faves.

Shhhh....that’s supposed to be a secret. [emoji6]

The one he’s sending is actually for my customer. I still need to get him my GG and $$$ for the trade up.

I've had my new (used) GG for less than 3 weeks. Fortunate to find two! pairs of the EML Anniversary mesh globe 45's, and bought a new RK KR 5U4G for it. The GG has been a revelation. Can't imagine how good the Pacific is.

Mike, that was with his B7. Pac changes things.

You have a very nice tube stash, so when you get the Pac, please roll with wild abandon and let me know!

The Pacific is a bit more resolved and articulate. But the GG is still a world class DAC. I'm upgrading since audiophilia nervosa has hit me again, but I could equally well live with the GG. I just cannot stress how good the GG is. At the current S/H prices (lots of folks upgrading to Pacific) the GG is a true hi-end bargain.

Brilliantly put!

I have a demo unit here at the moment and its wonderful. I will shed a tear when it leaves and then will reinsert the GG1 (latest upgrade) and cheer myself up with a wonderful consolation prize. The only better consolation would be GG2. LoL
 
So, I’ve spent the last 2 years basking in the beautiful sound that my LampizatOr Golden Gate DAC delivered, firmly believing that the music I get to listen to any time I want would never get any better..
Then Lukasz Fikus and the amazing team at LampizatOr decided to create the ‘Pacific’.. And not only did they create something amazing, I was able to trade my Golden Gate in for 100% of the price I paid two years ago!.. In the world of high end audio, this isn’t an offer I’ve ever seen..
So, long story short, I decided to order a Pacific Balanced DAC and trade in my Golden Gate.. Earlier this week my Pacific DAC arrived, and hoping I’d made a good decision, I installed it in place of the Golden Gate... And then.. Magic happened!
I think I’ve probably spent 10 hours a day since - well into the wee early hours - listening to music I know and love.. Seemless swapping from PCM to DSD - and everything in-between - and I think I may have found musical Nirvana.. ��
Every recording I have reveals new detail - but more importantly it delivers a balance between every vocal and instrumental voice that creates a third dimension I hadn’t believed I’d ever hear..
Experiencing the body sensation you had in a concert hall when a big orchestra just fills - and then vacates - the air around you, or being at a concert when you float on the energy that makes the room so alive that you’re carried away with the music.. That’s what this is like..
I’ve no idea how Lukasz and his team have achieved this, but all that’s left to say is that if you have been considering upgrading to - or purchasing - the LampizatOr Pacific DAC, just dive on in and DO IT.. It’s a decision you’ll never regret..
Here’s a brief glimpse of the Pacific sitting atop the rest of the amazing pieces that make up the musical joy that fills my life, as the sun went down on a cold Melbourne winter evening..
