Make a Tube One out of Your Audio System
The Flamingo is a small, versatile tube audio DAC that may be utilised in a varietyof settings, including your home and workplace.Vacuum tubes have been around for more than a century. It has superior overload tolerance, improved linearity, more consistent harmonics, and a distinct flavour that transistors lack. -
Master tape level decoding
USB: up to 32bit/768k DSD512; Coaxial: up to 24bit/384k DoP128. HighResolution Decoding & Powerful Amp can be connected to your computer, PC, or laptop, mobile devices like smartphones, tablets, and laptops through USB (matching connections required), and coaxial output devices like CD players and digital transporters.Your headphones and IEMs may perform to their full capacity with the help of the potentheadphone amp, which features the traditional OP+BUF frame and a positive-and-negative high-current power supply. -
The Flamingo offers both TUBE MODE and OP-AMP MODE, offering two modes and two distinct flavors. You can have a lot of fun exploring with the 7 filters you can choose from.

High-quality Hi-Fi components are used in the Flamingo, including communication-level FR PCB material, a C0G capacitor, a low-ripple LDO, etc. It has outstanding specifications: noise floor in OPA MODE is 4 volts, THD+N is 0.0003%, and noise floor in tube mode is 20 volts, THD+N is 0.02%. The tuning is based on actual instrument sounds and references from musical compositions, resulting in a signature that is organic and musically rich.
Caution:
When the gadget is functioning, the tube may become warm. Avoid touching it. US-style plugs are used.
Frequently Asked Questions
If I have a receiver, do I still need an amplifier?****
Normally no. An A/V receiver already has an amplifier. Using an A/V receiver, an audio signal can be captured, processed, amplified for speakers, and video can be transmitted to a TV or projector.
Can I combine my receiver and amplifier?****
Yes, there are a few exceptions to this rule when you are able to upgrade an existing arrangement with a receiver by adding extra amps. However, typically you use a stereo amp for hi-fi and an AV receiver for home theatre. It really is that simple.
What distinguishes an amplifier from a receiver?****
The main difference between a receiver and a “regular” integrated amplifier with regard to sound systems is that a receiver has a built-in radio part, whilst an amplifier does not.
What wattage qualifies as a competent receiver?****
The majority, and some even more, recommend utilizing 25 to 400 watts.
Select a receiver that has a constant power output within the suggested
rating. A 45 to 100 watt receiver, for instance, would be a wonderful option
if a speaker required between 25 and 150 watts.
Can an amplifier be left on continuously?****
Amplifiers shouldn’t be left on for extended periods of time because the
continuous heat exposure could wear out internal parts, including the
filament.
Amplifiers of high quality and dependability can operate constantly for many
hours, days, or even weeks without suffering any harm.
However, it’s a good idea to turn off your amps when not in use.
The receiver or integrated amplifier, which is superior?****
The receiver has more decoding circuitry, delays, and reverberation.
Do receivers have an impact on sound quality?****
The receiver also amplifies the source signal to enhance sound quality; this is another variable that may be changed depending on the layout of the space and speakers.
Can you connect two receivers together?****
You can link two receivers together and increase the sound output of the complete system by adding more speakers. You may easily connect two audio receivers by yourself if you have two and want to.
Why is a receiver necessary?****
Stereo and surround sound receivers
Although they serve a number of purposes, their main purpose is to collect
audio and video signals from various sources (such as a turntable, Blu-ray
player, or cable box), amplify them, and then transmit the audio to your
speakers.
Can two amplifiers be coupled together?****

Can two amplifiers be coupled together?****
Whether it is safe to connect two amplifiers together is a frequently asked issue. It is possible because there are different options. The options are governed by the machine’s input/output settings. You might be using an old amplifier because you believe it will make your music system sound better.
Do speakers require amplification?****
You don’t need an amplifier.
What function does an amplifier serve in a sound system?****
An amplifier strengthens the weak audio stream from the head unit so it can move.
How do audio receivers work?****
The receiver sends the video and audio to your television while also sending the audio to the decoder. After the decoder isolates the multiple sound channels from the video stream, the data is transferred to amplifiers for each sound channel output. These amplifiers are coupled with the appropriate speaker or speakers.
How do I pick a receiver?****
The first thing to take into account when choosing an AV receiver is the size of your space. This is used to determine how much power, how many channels, and other parameters.
