Esoteric K-05 or K-07?

@ jmcgrogan2, Hi, How would you describe the sound of the esoteric models you did listen to?,, cheers!

Maybe not relevant to this thread since I have never listened to the K series but I did have the X-03 and the P3/D5 combo. I would describe the sound I heard as very clear, detailed and dynamic. Perhaps the filters available on the K series can help change the sound but I felt that something emotional was missing with the Esoteric. I was never drawn into the music. Perhaps the rest of my system was not properly matched to take advantage of the Esoteric's strengths. I now have a Luxman D-06 which I am enjoying immensely.

X series was amusical. K series is most certainly musical. --i covered this in my review of the P/D02 on UltraAudio.

i'd have never owned an X series. In contrast, i'd love to have a K01.

@ Tboooe, Does Luxman make a player with volume control to be used direct to amplification?, cheers!

Hi Yashu,

If lush is your train ticket then the Esoteric is not the right train!
