I don't know if you was being sarcastic on that quote but Lampizator does the DSD conversion in a R2R way, using a power tube instead of a DAC chip.
I am not sarcastic and the "review" above does not extend any of my knowledge about the Lampizator DAC. I never used or heard anything by Lampizator, he might do interesting things, thought it is chip-based R2R, not discrete, we would not able to afford it otherwise. My only concern about the all of those DACs is tube output stage. It does server nice the common audiophile frustrations but I never felt too good about line-level tube devises. I never was able to build and never saw/hear any tube-based transparent simple buffer. So, my assumption that tube output stage on DACs would be desirable.
