Recently joined the esoteric f-05 to my totem forest signatures. Bought slightly used and at the recommendation of others without hearing. This amp appears to a bit underrated if anything. Sound hard to describe-bass punchy (I ditched my well reviewed sub), sound so musical and pleasing even my volume phobic wife has asked me to turn it up at times. Seems to have no listening fatigue. A tad warm I guess but I’d describe as more musical than anything. Great clarity. Been listing to music that has been important to me throughout my life. An incredible experience.

All, Recently joined the esoteric f-05 to my totem forest signatures. Bought slightly used and at the recommendation of others without hearing. This amp appears to a bit underrated if anything. Sound hard to describe-bass punchy (I ditched my well reviewed sub), sound so musical and pleasing even my volume phobic wife has asked me to turn it up at times. Seems to have no listening fatigue.

Hi guys I was looking at the Esoteric for my office system that uses two sets of speakers in two different rooms. The speaker switching makes this appealing. I had. 20 watt Luxman here before but it was just to hot in my small office in the summer and really didn't sound all that much better than the Creek Destiny I have now. Seems like this might be a nice step up from the Destiny and also has MC input so I can try some MC carts on my table. I was mostly wondering how hot does this baby run? |
I have the F-05 with power upgrade, Phone & Headphone included. I've been using for 5 months and I have no faults to state. I'm driving W/A Sasha DAW and the 05 never misses a beat 🎼 I must sell (locally to NYC) cash only. $85000 StateniLand@aol.com if interested
