Dk Design VS-1 Mk. 2 Amp with Von Schweikerts?


Have any Audiogoners heard this DK Design MK.2 Amp with Von Schweikert loudspeakers? To those of you who have purchased this DK amp, how happy do you continue to be with it? What do you consider its strengths and weaknesses? How does it play at low volumes? What amp did you replace to get the DK design amp? I currently have the Pathos Acoustics Logos hybrid integrated amp that also uses 2 6933 Tubes. Thanks for your thoughts. Stephen

As a VSA and DK Design Group dealer,,,, a client of mine who just purchased both the VS-1 and VR4jrs emailed me a few nights ago and stated after connecting up,, "delivering powerful, crisp natural music satisfaction". His children are classical music students and he has an ear for "live".

Simply put, the synergy between the products could be described as superbly graceful and refined with all music, from the simple to the large and complex. Very easy to forget the physical presense of the "enclosures" and become absorbed in the musical experience. Their is a high degree of detail and transparency, the mids reflect the nuance and texture with just the right touch of "velvet". Bass has plenty of authority and tightness/rightness. I have yet to replace the stock tubes with the Seimens and the VS-1 has perhaps only 40 hours in my rig. (w/VR4jrs).
I will be moving a pair of Hyperion 938's in at some point and expect the same sonic attributes and prestentation.

The VS-1 has been the surprise component in the chain. Its a knockout at any price!
