I HEARD THEM AT CAF and it’s $3699 and nothing under 10 k can touch them and only a few speakers under 20k can beat them.
They are completely amazing and outstanding, and they were hooking it up to mid level HiFi rose. Imagine what they can do hooked up to some higher end dacs and amplification. They are resolving and neutral and won’t be forgiving for lower end electronics. Even though they are only $3699 you will need at least 10-15k in electronics behind it for them to be optimized. I would try to find a luxman class A 590AXII for it or an Esoteric integrated amp. Easy to drive but revealing and I am also thinking an upper level Naim Uniti Nova would work well not the wee atom or mid level star. I would also try a Naim supernaught 3 and a Belles Audio amp from power modules would be perfect too. DAC whatever flavor you want but for the money the $2800 Luxman DAC is amazing.
