Ok, I forgot to mention what I don’t like about it.
1. All new gen Esoteric upper models come with
Self destructing OLED display. So display goes dark
After a few minutes to slow that process down. So
After song number one, to know what song I was listening
To is to wake this display up.
2. Poorly executed remote control, many functions that
Should be able to do from remote control can only access
From front panel buttons only, such as power on off, set up, source switching. Luxman can do all these.
3. The drawer or tray operation doesn’t sound like
expensive mechanical work of art, due to plastic like
Sound from VRDS clamping system operation. Unlike
Accuphase, Luxman or Mcintosh MCD tray, I think Denon
Top model SACD player also have quieter tray operation too. I am not sure what the but at least the K1 tray movef fast until approaching 90% of its travel then nicely slow down before reach 100%. The K1X tray move fast until hitting 100% followed by sound of plastic-like clamp doing its job ( ok Duralumin)
That’s all complaints.
