2100 hours to break-in at 24 hours a day, Christ I never listen that much to my system in years. 700 hours for it to sound right for each filter setting. We must buy this then based on faith that we will like the final sound at $11,000 to $19,000 a try. That is asking a lot of folks on faith plus the human ear getting used to the sound of it then accepting it. How many combination of setting you could come up with this unit makes this unrealistic. What is a dealer return policy 3 days most of the time.
Esoteric K-03 or K-01
After many reads and auditions I am ready to pull a trigger on esoterik K-03 player. I also have the opportunity to get a new K-01 for a great price, but without being able to audition it and still a few $$$ more, so it is dificault to commit to.
Those who had a chance to hear/have both players, how much K-01 is better than k-03?
May be for my system K-03 will do fine and K-01 is overkill?
I intend to run Esoteric player direct to amplifier, how much K-01 may sound better direct to amplifier in compare with K-03?
My speakers are Marten Django XL that driven by ML # 532H.
Thank you.
