 I just purchased a used Lampizator Level 4 Gen 5 DAC and I've tried the coax inputs and the balanced input, but Lampizator says they like the USB best. I'm using a Lumin streamer. Anyone have any thoughts on the USB interface of Lampi DACs?

 My Euforia Dac likes the Wyred for Sound USB Box and Wire World USB Cable.
Lampi does DSD really well, probably PCM too.

 I love my Amber II. The Amber line, IIRC, replaced the Level 4 tier. The USB input (older Amanero board) on the Amber II however, is of inferior quality. It was significantly bested by both Schiit Eitr and Singxer SU-1 USB-SPDIF converters, the latter of which I'm still using (into the BNC input on the DAC). I've only used 16/44, not DSD, FWIW.

Lampizator has upgraded their USB input boards since then and I spoke to Fred at Lampi USA recently to inquire about upgrading mine. It's apparently doable and I'm waiting to hear if it can be done here in the US (r/t than shipping it back to Poland which I don't want to do).
