Anyone hear Dk Design VS1 Mk. 2 with Hyperion 938?
I'm thinking of upgrading my amp to the Dk Design Group VS1 Mk. 2 for my Hyperion 938 speakers. I would appreciate any comments on the sound of this intregated monster with the Hyperions if you have been fortunate enough to own both. Thanks.
Its awesome. You simply can't get a better amp for the Hyperions then the DK. Also, many dealers set up Hyperions with the DK and I often see this combination at shows.
I decided not to go with the DK - waiting for a custom made tube amp. Kef 104/2s were good speakers for their time, but no where in the league of the 938s.
Regarding Hyperion speakers, are you all dealing with a dealer or directly with the manufacturer? I heard the 968s at HE2006 back in June and was quite impressed. I wanted to audition them more before I decide whether they are the ones for me. There's not a dealer around the San Francisco Bay Area.
I had asked the sales rep at the show if it would be possible to do another audition at a later date. And he told me that they have a showroom in their Southern California facility. I had e-mailed Hyperion Audio two weeks ago and still haven't heard back from them. Just wondering what others' experiences have been with this company.
I will be pairing it with a Pass X350.5, and will also try biamping with a Pass Aleph Os to see how it sound. Other speakers that I was impressed at the show and will be auditioning are Usher Be-10 and Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation.
