Ivan.......Good read. Thanks. The Esoteric F-05 should be selling like hotcakes.

Dan... great price point for such a feature rich, and high performance integrated too!

What's the lead time on one of these bad boys? I assume one could order from you, correct?

Yes sir; if in stock, I can have it in your home in 5 days! ;)

If it needs to be brought in from Japan, 2 weeks. :ok:

I have to say that my F-05 is by far the best purchase I have made in years. It has surpassed the performance of my Luxman L590AX and Accuphase E-470 and Gato AMP-150 by significant and noticeable measures.

Many thanks to Ivan for his recommendation on this integrated. :banana:

Outstanding! :yeeea:

I am new Esoteric F-05 user for about 4 months.

At first month I was very satisfied with F05. F05 produces very clean and detailed sound which is a noticeable upgrade of my previous amp.

However, after upgrading power cord from Oyaide Tunami GPX-R to Cardas Clear Beyond, the sound in my system became a little bright and with unpleased sibilance.
I have to adjust other cables to solve these problems.

Now I use F05 as power amp only. This is another long story....
I am planning adding a power amp and F05 will be the heart of my second stereo system.

Here is my system:
DAC: North Star Design Supremo USB DAC
DSP: Accuphase DG58
PreAmp: Accuphase C-3800
PowerAmp: Esoteric F05 as power Amp.
speaker: UniwaveTek CHÂTEAU REFERENCE MONITORS
