Have you read What HiFi' review of the Luxman? They were pretty emphatic about it having and I quote; "
However, the Luxman falls short in its ability to communicate the passion in music, and that makes it a talented diversion rather than an essential listen." A lean and analytic sound was pretty much their description. A dealer near me has carries both Esoteric and Luxman. They will get in the K-03XD but I'm not sure about the10X. I am looking hard at the Esoteric but now I'm curious about the Luxman.
My thoughts on my new Esoteric k03xd CD player.
Disclosure: I’m not associated with Esoteric in anyway, nor am I a dealer trying to promote this product.
Fluid without any edge or hardness is how I would describe this player right out of the box.
It’s a front row presentation without an in your face feel. Images are clearly defined with extension of all frequencies that keep everything in balance with one another. This player is replacing a Luxman d08u and is clearly superior to it in every way. It breathes life into every CD played. For those who say CD’s sound like S... haven’t heard what the latest from Esoteric has to say about that!
