Regarding DK Design Vs.1 Reference Mk2 amp ???

It is a challenge but not impossible. If Larry puts together a network of the best dealers, gives great service, and introduces more high value products, DK and LSA will be fine. Things change quickly, and companies reinvent themselves all the time. Larry can make this work if he does the right things. If not, DK will die a quiet death. Many of us read these posts daily and perceptions change constantly. If the company gets some strong reviews for it's new products and has more happy customers, things will fall in to place and the marketing issues from the Daniel days will become just more great audio folklore.

HP (Absolute Sound) has been hinting at some amp that is going to change the world during the last 2 issues...personally I find him far too....pretentious?...one wonders what he is referring to.

Henryhk -- he is referring to the ASR Emitter II.

Never heard of it!

I had a yellow Chevy II Nova in high school that I sold for $400 They sell today for between $12-$20,000. I obviously didn't know what I had.

Audio Gear is a commodity, just like anything else, and if someone can make a quick profit on a piece and leverage the purchase of a newer upgraded or more highly touted piece, then they will. It all has little to do with the intrinsic value of the item in question and more to do with a percieved illusion of value.

Many of you, I'm sure have sold equipment at some point that you had regretted losing. When everyone who really wants one for its intrinsic value has one they will stop becoming so readily available.

The DK Design Amps will have a very significant place in audio lore when the dust settles and people realize that even at retail, this is one of the most significant audio values in the last 25 years(My years in the business).

By the way, I was offered a mint stock cherry Dino Ferrari for $25k in the 80s. They go for as much as $100k today.

If you were able to snag a DK for ridiculous discount, you might just want to hang on to it. It has all the makings of a cult item.
