I have a K1 - there are a few permutations to this unit. Some have a phono, some with remote. Mine is both ....and there is an update K1xe. I remember when mine was modded to xe.....a definite upgrade. The performance of the unit is quite wonderful, the phono section can take any moving coil made....the Ayre service is among the tops in the industry.
Has anyone compared Ayre K-1x to Pass X-1
I am considering buying one of these two ss Preamps and was curious if anyone had had the opportunity to compare them. I am using Pass X-600 mono's to drive my Amati's. Which of the two are warmer sounding? If anyone can give me an idea of the basic sonic differences between the two I would appreciate it. Thank you for your feedback.
