The Lite 7 is an evolution of our most successful design - The Big 7.  As the name suggests -  we decided to make the super addictive sound of big DHT triodes, in Single Ended mode, affordable to the wider group of audiophiles. 

To achieve the very ambitious target of almost halving the price - we stripped it down to the bare bones maintaining the same sound style and economizing on the same hardware platform.

We had to remove the tube rectifier and chokes and use the silicone plus CRC instead, and we use all parts without famous brands. It does not mean the parts are bad or random or mediocre - we use our huge experience and connections in the supplier industry to find inexpensive parts of premium sonic quality.

IN ORDER TO MAKE THE LITE 7 DAC AFFORDABLE - WE MUST OFFER ONLY ONE DESIGN WITHOUT OPTIONS. WE BUILD IT AND “IT IS AS IT IS”.

NO SPECIAL ORDERS. FOR SPECIAL ORDERS AND REQUESTS PLEASE REFER TO THE BIG 7.

Standard Lite 7 DAC:

•Output capacitors Jupiter AM series

•Tubes: Standard Psvane 101D, with provision to switch to 2A3, 6A3 or 300B or 45-245-345.

•Same Level 7 PCM DAC 384 kHz

•USB up to 32 bit/384 kHz

•DSD engine same as Big 7

RCA output pair

USB input socket

RCA-S/PDIF input

Your only choice is black or silver front panel and the color of eye ring red, orange, blue or white. .

Let’s summarize the Big Seven build principles:

•DHT triodes in single ended anode follower configuration as Lampizator signal tubes (45 or 2A3 or 101D or 300B or 245/345 or PX-4 or 242)

You have a selector switch to choose three tube schemes (2A3/45/101D/300B) but you get only one chosen tube pair. Tube rolling is entirely on you.

•Only one amplification stages in the whole DAC

•Only one capacitor in series with the sound in the whole DAC.

•Separate transformer windings for tube circuit, separate transformer for digital part, separate secondary windings for every task

•Our top digital section with current-output DAC converters

•DSD based on our best concept of using un-manipulated, filtered, raw, native datastream as signal.

SIZE: 45 cm wide, 53 cm deep, 13 cm tall. Weight (shipping) 16 kg, net 12 kg
