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 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 caps, (from November 2025 with name change to Atlantic5 you get engine Twelve with DSD512x , Balanced or Single ended - by order, possibility to add full preamp feature with remote control, display, and resistor ladders.Balanced configuration is truly balanced, not merely an SE circuit with phase doubler at the end.You get also analog preamp inputs, newest USB firmware for Linux and Windows, and as standard you get the fine EL34 or KT88 tetrodes that we can obtain from current production.The standard top cover on Atlantic -5 TRP DAC is CHARCOAL BLACK (not copper as on the pictures)Some facts about new Atlantic-5 TRP: 4 digital input types instead of 3New phenomenally musical engine of digital conversion called Engine TwelveNew OLED display, no more LCDSoftware driven signal routing, no more relaysTotal muting to keep switching noises downPlays every digital file knownno drivers needed for any computer operating systemVolume control models have one analog input for analog sources (active input with tubes and volume)MAIN SPECS:4 main variants:Single Ended RCA , no preamp/volume (price shown in this ad)Single Ended RCA , WITH preamp/volume - available for extra € 2.000 (+ 21% Vat, if applicable)*Fully Balanced & Single Ended RCA , no preamp/volume - available for extra € 2.000 (+ 21% Vat, if applicable)*Fully Balanced & Single Ended RCA , WITH preamp/volume - available for extra € 4.000 (+ 21% Vat, if applicable)** please message us if you need any of these versions.RETRO-FIT UPGRADES of Atlantic2, 3, 4, Any Atlantic higher than 1 DAC no matter the age or variant can be upgraded to the "Engine Twelve" status for a fixed price.

Are you paying US$7,607 for a piece that’s merely fair, or one that’s actually attractive versus the used market? Based on your own comps, this lands right at the median and matches the 75th percentile, so it reads as a fair asking price, not a bargain and not aggressive.
That makes it a sensible buy if you want this DAC specifically: LampizatOr is well regarded for a big, organic, tube-driven presentation with strong tone density and spatial ease, which is exactly why people shop this line used. The “NEW!” wording may suggest a fresh or lightly handled unit, but the real upside here is simply buying into a respected, statement-level converter at market value; I’d mainly want to confirm power-up, tube hours, and any included remote, box, or accessories before pulling the trigger.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
LampizatOr emerged from the DIY audio scene in Poland, founded by Łukasz Fikus in July 2010. Born in Warsaw in 1965, Fikus began as a self-taught enthusiast in the 1980s, earning the nickname "Lampizator"—a playful fusion of the Polish word "lampa" for vacuum tube and The Terminator—through his innovative designs shared in online communities. By 2010, he formalized the operation with a dedicated workshop in Warsaw, now employing 12 staff and numerous subcontractors, marking a shift from hobbyist roots to a professional enterprise with global reach.
The brand specializes in handmade, custom vacuum tube digital-to-analog converters (DACs), offered in tiers from Level 4 to 7 with options like volume controls, DSD modules, balanced outputs, and upgraded components. While DACs form the core—over 600 units sold worldwide—LampizatOr has expanded into niche products such as the VP4 Silver phonostage, emphasizing tube-based warmth and personalization over mass production.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audiophile market, LampizatOr commands a boutique reputation for exceptional sound quality and craftsmanship, earning near-universal praise from reviewers and enthusiasts. Its privately owned structure avoids investor influence, fueling steady innovation and worldwide distribution, though isolated customer service critiques occasionally surface in forums. For discerning buyers seeking tube-infused digital refinement, it stands as a Polish hi-fi standout.
