The DCS stack is clearly in the top tier of all playback options in the world.

The K1 to me is the ultimate middle ground with clarity, musicality and a touch more warmth than either 4 box stack ..it definitely gives a moment of pause at its price point versus spending way up the scale on either 4box stack. Then you have to add a true master clock to all to achieve the most of each,...definitely adds up. When the day is done, K1 packs a wallop in price and performance....
SCAudiophile,

Thanks for your well-defined opinion. Very helpful.
It mirrors my experience with Rossini vs. K01X.
