Kinki Studio EX-M1 “Pure.” 👌 | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 How is this possible? Voices and instruments seem to be separating and increasingly fixed in space. The sound, overall, can only be described as pure. You can hear strings vibrate. Is it truly changing? Hmm. | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Oh, no way in Hell it is a sympathetic vibration. If you use one channel, the sound comes right out the speaker, not somewhere in the room. Using both channels, it is a lovely stereo ripping sound. I have not changed my opinions and KEF hasn’t, ei... | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Yes, same crap, with the same vocals. So, from McIntosh, to Rotel, to Kinki, and all new interconnects and cables from Cardas and Transparent. I’m truly disgusted. I’ve got to get my arthritic ass in my car and travel 30 miles to hear some Vanders... | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Day two is progressing. My Rotel 1590 combo is fully broken in, but I don’t think the Kinki is, so weigh this with my comments. The Rotel seems warmer, or more musical, but the EX has far more detail. The rotel seems denser or more full, but the K... | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Thanks. It is a very trivial matter. Dim is just right ! A lot of thought went into this amps design. | |
Recommendations Amp, DAC for Kef R900 Yesterday, I got a Kinki Studio integrated, and my R900’s love it! I’ve been using a Rotel 1590 combo and this blows them away for $2300 more or less. It has no DAC, and no controls, but man does it perform. 👍 | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Day two begins. It’s 4:30 am. Say, does lighting have only two settings, dim and bright? If so, I’d suggest more steps. I love the audible volume clicks! | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Your review and comments have been very accurate. Thanks for them. 👍🏻 | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 You heard it from me: hammered dulcimer. | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 I don’t think the controls are needed but some folks may want them. Too bad about the battery. | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Just keep in mind there are no controls of any kind, so if you need balance controls or whatever, .... | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Man, if you close your eyes, with some cd’s you’d swear it is live. 🙊 | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Good God, Alvin, it really is nice! I’m getting more and more detail, and some vocalists are in near 3d. I suggest including a battery for the remote, or a slip of paper with the specs. Alvin, you ARE the MAN. 👌 | |
Kinki Studio EX-M1 Nah, She Who Must Be Obeyed....Man, as this thing warms up it is merciless on details and the bass is so fast it is unreal. |
