Pacific Audio Fest 2023 (June 23-25, 2023)

prototype DAC from LTA that was R-2R + Tubes.

They had the DAC at Axpona too, both in the headphone area, connected to a Z10E and also one of the 2 channel rooms, connected to a Ultralinear + integrated. I can’t speak for the DAC, as there was no way to compare, but the chain sounded great.

And they were nice enough to allow me to demo my headphones on the Ultralinear +, and I enjoyed the sound of the DAC and amp so much that I bought the amp.

I wish they had the DAC in the headphones section, but they might not have had enough of them to go around at PAF.

At their headphone area LTA had: X9K, Corina, CRBN, Caldera, Utopia (New), Meze Elite, Meze 109, LCD-5, LCD-X, Verite Closed.

I’m pretty sure the closed-back ZMF they had there was the Atrium Closed:
