| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? sns, perhaps the 500k output impedance figure is NOT throughout the entire frequency band, but a single measurement. Pretty common with tube preamps and yours is definitely unique. I have no idea however as to why such would only present itself ... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? sns, it’s all good. That’s a nice, unique pre, you have there. Nice selection of amps also. I’ve a friend with Khorns but he runs a 6wpc Set. Hyperion sounds voiced more like an ADS speaker than a Klipsch. Late 80’s sealed box vs horns. More ... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? Just another note as this thread and much of audiophile searching in the wilderness is about achieving the elusive ‘perfect voicing’ of ones system.The critical focus put upon a preamp to mediate source to power. sns seems to have a Coincident 10... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? So much information to sort thru here. May as well add to the fog. 1st let me say I really, like the ‘unity gain’ style of preamps. I like the simplicity, the feel, and the quality. Being fed by a Benchmark Dac3 HGC, I’ve run direct, 0,10, and... | |

| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? Hell even better, pick up the Rotel Tribute integrated and settle in for a few months. $800 bucks I think. They sound really nice and even do Bluetooth. I own the matching CD player and like it very much… | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? jwlaudio Anything Klipsch will not need the kind of power or sophistication you r considering. The Decware will serve u well, when it arrives. If it were me, and I’m biased cause I own the stuff, I’d buy the entry Hestia/Hyperion and settle in.... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? jackd I bet they do! You’ve got an audiophiles dream going on. Tough problem, the BHK on tone, finesse, the M7 on pure grunt? I bet both sound great. Thnx 4 sharing, b well… | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? Wow! Those r cool preamps. Must sound really nice. Did u settle on a speaker? I’ve some of those 6dj8 around as I once had a Dodd battery pre that required such. Think I sold it on to a fella in Eastern Europe. Sure was a good looking piece ... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? jackd Nice. I can relate to the small tube rolling and the subtle differences imparted. I did the same with Amprex and Mullards years ago. Still use a pr. of Bugle Boys in my EAT Petite phono pre as the Mullards go a bit too soft. Did you go w... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? jackd any comparison of Kinki vs PS amp? I’ve only read about the Kinki stuff. U certainly roll through a bunch of speakers, nice ones too… | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? jwlaudio, can I ask what speaker you will be using? Both those products you mentioned, the Pass and PS are nice amps. If I’m going low power I’m going SET. So I’d pass on the Pass though I’ve heard the 60wpc sound great with a pair of Ryan’s. ... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? Hestia and Hyperion r the choice for my Zu DW’s. Let ‘em run n, they gotta lot of caps; so for a good month. The pair is smooth, organic, open, dynamic and powerfully musical. The midrange is excellent. If you’ve played around with tube and ss... | |
| Good amp pairing for Zu Dirty Weekend? Denafrips Hestia and Hyperion. Oh so good driving DWs w/Jupiter caps. Better than the Yamaha A-S integrated or several tube amps I’ve tried. Couple weeks of break n, then wow! Iron fist, velvet glove. Vinyl through this is an extra treat, gre... | |
| Holo Serene vs Denafrips Athena (anyone compared these preamps?) Nonoise, as it relates to the first video, my initial experience with Athena is similar fronting a Benchmark Dac3-L into a Denafrips Hyperion. Inserting Athena between the two is a mind bending experience. Everything is better, bigger, sharper, ... |
