Default Marantz 30th Anniversary KI Pearl Collection Box

The KI Pearl Collection Box contains a hardcover book and a SACD. The "box" is just a slip cover. The book is a little bigger than 5" x 7" with ~50 pages of material printed on high quality paper. Recording quality of the SACD is top notch. The music selections are well known. Anyone that is into Jazz should know the tunes.

Here is the KI Pearl website.
KI Pearl by Ken Ishiwata

McIntosh underneath Marantz


PS. As you can see, the McIntosh book is substantially larger.

The new September issue of Hi FI News has a review of the units. They like them. No surprise there.

It's "Summertime," the first cut in the SACD.
