LampizatOr Super Komputer
DSD Komputer by Lampizator.
-We are not a computer company, but maybe we know something about good sound.
-We searched the world high and low in our quest for a good solution. By good I mean a solution that sonically matches our Golden Gate DAC. We narrowed it down and down until we settled on a present solution . We built 20 working prototypes and compared them to each other and to the widely accepted benchmarks: Fully tweaked Mac Mini, Fully customized i7 laptop, Ayon S5 transport, Aurender W20, and Adam the “Elberoth” fabulous Windows Optimizer /JCat Win2012 server.
-Here it is - our own Lampi- LINUX player machine that is as no-compromise and as high specs as possible. Why Linux ? Because Linux does with one hand tied behind the back what the Windows is merely trying to achieve, together with Optimizer, Fidelizer, and even the fabulous Bughead Emperor. Windows is TRYING to be quiet, low process, low interrupt player. One week of tweaking with Optimizer and Fidelizer makes Windows fantastic. But then it becomes difficult because Windows will modify itself, or loose licence, or loose licence of associated softwares or all of the above. We considered it an UN-USABLE operating system for anyone who is not an IT specialist. Fully tweaked Windows requires EVERYDAY attention and support.
- Linux is able to match the quality of sound without one hundred problems associated with Windows.

-We added the other key elements of good sound: High End USB for audiophile quality 3.0 output. 256 GB M.2 SSD drive from SAMSUNG PRO series with highest transfer speed of 20 MBIT that holds our Linux and the custom settings, OS and with a restore partition, second - music storage drive SSD (0,5TB) or traditional 4TB highest spec drive WD-RED - special one for 24/365 operation, possibility to add infinite external volume via USB3, Sata, LAN or WAN.
-For quick playback you can instantly play from a memory stick, from CD USB drive, external 3_1/2 inch drive or from the internet. A 5 inch drive requires a docking station to work.
-Our software ROON can play from internet radio, Tidal, Spotify.
All machines come with English version.
All machines will play DSDx64, DSDx128 DSD256x and 512 even on Linux and in native form.
Conversion on the fly is possible with right settings. It concerns both DSD to PCM and vice versa.
Specification is subject to change.
-We use customized embeded Linux in shell mode with no functions other than music and the percentage of Intel microprocessor “busy level” is 1%.
-The mother-board is the best we could find with really “open budget”. It is dedicated to Intel processors and and we use i7 4-core, multi thread processor Other specs are: 16 GB DDR4 -PRO type RAM, our own dedicated multi-output, fully regulated, fan-less linear power supply (not impulse), the heart of the system - SSD M.2 embeded drive, a tablet as a remote control, This machine plays both PCM and DSD and as far as we are concerned it is the best that PC technology has to offer.
-There is no rocket science in our Komputer. Anybody can, and really SHOULD make such one for himself. It just takes time and money to buy EVERY part from a different vendor from a different country. First we have to import and stock this stuff in bulk. Pay shipping, customs and duties. Make sure everything matches. Have a skilled IT man put everything carefully together which takes 3 full days and 2 days testing and troubleshooting. Playing test music always with Golden Gate DAC as our ultimate sound benchmark ! Playing in our special dedicated listening room that no other computer company can even comprehend.
