amp/preamps for matin logan summits
Hi Charu,I have had logans since the Sequel.I have run the route from all tube to all ss to a mix of both.If you get a chance try a DK-Design Signature.It has to me and also my friends that have heard it mate with my prodigy's better than any of t... 
Does DK Design actually design and manufacture?
I believe DK Designs only uses the existing chassis.(I own a Reference MK III )I believe just about every manufacturer out there out-sources their metal work.I am pretty sure Krell,Cary,Levinson,etc do not build their own chassis.The Chassis most ...

Danlib1,Use the force as you don't know the power of the dark side :) 
Dk design group ref. mk11 sound failure
If you decide to try new tubes I have found the Amperex PQ D-getters to work extremely well.Should help clear up that muddy sound you hear.I liked them so much i went for the pinch waiste's which are very three dimensional.The Seimen CCa is very g... 
Dk design group ref. mk11 sound failure
Why don't you try to contact Larry Staples at the LSA Group as he is the owner of DK.I have the MK-3 and it never gets hot.Best of luck.Bob 
DK Design Group vs. Boulder
Damn,I better sell my DK-MK3 after garnering all this info on how bad it is although it does sound better than a Plinius 100MK3 and a ML-32 ref.My opinion only and thanks for the info.Bob 
Harry Pearson's comment on $600.00 Chinese CD
Danlib1,Funny I bought the Stibbert tube before I knew about his write up and he called that one right on the money in my opinion.Regards,Bob 
what is the REAL deal with DK
Sorry Dgplo but i sold my Plinius 100-mk3 with a ML-32 ref and even a very good tube pre as well, as the DK was better in my opiion as well as others that heard it.so i totally disagree with you but it's all what people like. 
Is There any Truly "High End" Integrated Amp?
Ditto !!I have a MK II that I am using with a Bluenote Stibbert and I have never been more pleased in 30 years of listening.I was a skeptic until a friend came over and said "Lets unplug that Levinson 32 and that Plinius amp and let's pop this bab... 
what is the REAL deal with DK
Hi Snofun3, I did read those old threads as I had gotten a mk-2 to try and wanted to see if anything was written on any of the sites.You are correct about how hideous and angry it got.Then again it seems to be the going thing these days.The only p... 
what is the REAL deal with DK
Hi Snofun3, With all due respect I don't know why your bashing the DK so fervently.Anyone that has come to my house thats into audio or not in the last 30+ years has not heard my system sound as good as it does now including myself.I have had nume... 
what is the REAL deal with DK
Frankie u, When you get the chance to tube roll if you can try the Amperex PQ's.They work great with this amp in my setup at least.I ended up getting the pinchwaist's and they are even better.My friend brought over some Siemen Cca's and they give ... 
Who has heard the Blue note Stibbert cd player ?
Tried the Koala and liked it so I ended up getting the new Stibbert with my wifes help for xmas.This player is outstanding and I have had a few since the little silver disc's came out!Yea,I'm old enough to be into audio before cd's:))Bob 
Blue Note CD player s
Just one question Fatcat,Do you still sell Bluenote as your second post is a tad contradictory to your first.Regards,Bob
