| Esoteric K-05 or K-07? Yashu, sorry for delayed response. Mine is on top of my rack, so I have no issue. However, it never gets hot or even warm, and sometimes I have CD's piled on top. Also, there are no vents on top of the K-03, so I doubt there is any heat dispersion... | |
| Esoteric K-05 or K-07? By all accounts, each higher level of Esoteric player is better than the last, so logically the 05 will be better than the 07. Haven't heard them against each other, but this is what I gathered in my lengthy online research prior to buying a K-03 ... | |
| How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05? Thanks much Denon1. Yes, from your older posts and many others, I'm very aware of the burn-in time, and that it must happen on each filter you use. That is a bit daunting, but I will work my way through it eventually. I will probably put this up a... | |
| How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05? Just having fun with you Milpai :)Fplanner, that's good to know. I expected as much, and probably would have been very happy with the K-05, but I couldn't resist the K-03. Other than a server, this should complete the 2ch aspect of my system, join... | |
| How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05? Milpai, now you tell me, LOL!?!? No worries, I'm sure I will like the K-03 :) | |
| How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05? Tboooe, I have surrendered to the inevitable. K-03 on the way. | |
| How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05? While there does seem to be an overwhelming amount of great press on the K-03, I really do believe (read: HOPE) it's simply that the K-05 has not gotten reviewed yet, and has not been out as long as the K-03. I sure would love to hear from those w... | |
| Esoteric D-07x vs PWD Mk2? Need info on SQ Hoping for some input. Thanks... | |
| Any experience with Esoteric K-05? Kiwi, btw, where is your blog? | |
| Any experience with Esoteric K-05? Thanks Kiwi. Very interesting and distinct comparison. I was really leaning towards the Esoteric units, but you stopped me cold with the Cary win-points. You used the word "trumps", which in my mind means decisively better. Is either unit actually... | |
| Any experience with Esoteric K-05? So Kiwi, how is it sounding compared to your Cary 306? I'm also considering the 306 Pro but it may be a bit older in techynology. | |
| Any experience with Esoteric K-05? Jon, I have a combined HT/2ch system with the 2ch gear being Revel Salon 2s as mains, a Mcintosh MC452 amp doing mains power, and a Krell S-1200 processor doing double duty as preamp and processor. Source is Oppo BDP95, the final necessary replace... | |
| Any experience with Esoteric K-05? kiwi, would love to hear your continued observations. I too was getting swayed by the AA fan club, as well as Alan Taffel's incredible reviews of the K-03 and the D-07x dac. However, while there is no doubt the Esoteric line offers great sound, up... | |
| SIMAUDIO 400m vs Bryston 7bbst2 Simaudio 400m had a great review in Soundstage I believe, but not much else written about it. I am also very interested in a pair for my Revel Salon 2 (which is what the reviewer used). Need power and warmth, and the 400m's seem to offer both. Let... | |
| McCormack DNA500 for Revel Salon 2? vs Lev/Mac? Mitch, agree would be instructive to hear a comparo btwn the DNA 750 and the new Cary SA500, and how they compare to their predecessors. I'd love to hear some comments around that scenario. |
