Anyone heard of DK design group?
Are you sure you're not referring to Blue Diamond ALMONDS?Because their factory is just three blocks from me. I can run down there right now and see if they know anything about the DK.

Ever seen their home in Switzerland? Crikey! What a gorgeous place!!! 
Component that stopped the upgrade cycle cold?
Dean,You really need to start looking at mechanical Swiss watches. Ready for a new (and VERY expensive) hobby?

Thanks to Marco, we have our Klipsch La Scala's. Everything else in our audio planetary system revolves--and evolves--around them. They are extraordinary. 
Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
Alex,What happened to your web site? I was going to e-mail you about setting up another time to come audition the player, but www.aplhifi.com brings up a site for web designers. You might want to check it out.Thanks,Howard

Excuse me for sullying the tone of this excellent thread. I'm signing off, and speaking directly with Alex via e-mail. He's just written me. 
Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
Alex,What can I say? I'm pretty busy as well. The next time you want to save face, however, you could just respond directly to my e-mails, which you still have not done.I know, everyone does business in his/her own way. I'm just a stickler when it... 
Any Meat Puppets Fans Out There?

Best tracks to "show off" your system
Jjwa,Ditto. 
Speakers for vocalists
SET and horns. Everything else sounds like music from a box to my ear. Just heard Avantgarde's the other day, and I swear it sounded like a live concert, especially on a CD of a gospel choir. I've heard planars, electrostatics, and ultra-high end ... 
Speaker Cable to Replace Zu Cable Wax
We have a SET amp/horn system. Did not care for the AP Solo Crystal IC's. Liked the AU24's better. Still, we find silver to be the best. Verastarr now makes a copper cable that outshined both the AP or AU24 in every way possible: better clarity, a... 
Tube Amps
As Alex & Sdcampbell both said, the Quicksilver products are superb. Their Mini-Mono's have a very open sound, eerily close to that of SET (single ended triode), which has an intimate, holographic midrange. You can use a variety of tubes with ...
