Which player for Accuphase c2900 and a75 original esoteric k01 or an Accuphase

@bclower thank you! Did you also order an Accuphase SACD player? BTW, maybe hang on to the Luxman d05u; that is a great machine. It’s good to have as a backup and for variety now and then. A few years ago I had a D08u and made a huge mistake in selling that for a Bricasti M1 DAC. The Luxman was incredible/ hard to describe in mere words, but it was and still is a king player I’m sure. I also had (and regret selling ) Luxman D03x. I love SACD / CD players and I’m going all in back to these roots - I’m using streaming as a secondary means of music discovery, a background process, if you will. Physical media (for me) is overall a much more enjoyable, relaxing, and engaging endeavour, but I do appreciate the convenience of streaming/ just not as main source anymore (I could write a boring novel on this subject- but I will leave it at this, presently).

Happy Anniversary to you and your bride. Cherish each other and enjoy the music!🎶 

@mark200mph congrats on the M-1000 amps. That is great they are still purring :) but I’m not surprised they still play to a high level. Accuphase engineering approach sets a very high bar and they build them to last 30-40 years give or take. There are interesting Accuphase factory visit vids on YouTube , and in some of these, they include the original technicians and engineers who worked even more vintage gear- and still support repairs. They had a customer with a 50 year old component and they repaired it and sent it back. I love this, and love their overall company ethos. I wish I had gotten into Accuphase years ago but happy to finally have gotten over the what ifs that kept me away. Life is short :) 

Have you played around with the Accuphase room correction component? 
cheers 
 

I do want to get thier dsp unit that is an electronic crossover.its on the list as I have many electronic crossovers but that one has excellent reviews and many functions. Enjoy the music and experiments..

Thank you for the kind words audio pacer, she’s quite a lady, we are renovating a 100 year-old house in the historic district of Newnan, Georgia, and she actually let me put my second system up in the living room, long story short Arturo at Axiss was a friend of mine for about 30 years before I lost touch with him after he sold the company, he always gave me a good deal because I helped him in a lot of ways on the East Coast back when he was starting off, practice two or three days a week now semi retired and refused to pay the US prices, therefore, yes, I ordered one on eBay brand new in the box 120 voltage, half the price I have talked to at least five very knowledgeable Asian Accuphase  people, and laid laugh at the profits that guy has made over the years, we all know this stuff doesn’t break. I have owned at least 10 pieces and never had the service of one of them plus this particular company guarantee service if I send it back if in fact, it ever needs it, congratulations to you on your soon to be new baby, I hope it gives you a lot of pleasure I will stay in touch and let you know how my deal proceeds all the best my friend Barry

by the way audiopacer a very nice member ,,,, that goes by the name, Mr. Triode who lives in Boca Raton Florida is a very big Accu phase person he has a lot of the top end gear. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, sir
