Well played Mark!

I believe they are widely available including in the US.

That is my understanding as well based on a conversation I had with a dealer.

In some industries, 'field' is used to differentiate between work required to be performed at the manufactory and work that may be performed at authorized satellite service centers, but not necessarily by an end consumer.

Does this mean you'll be doing an in-home demo? Eager to hear your thoughts if/when. Didn't you migrate from an Esoteric spinner to your Luxman? Curious to know if this XD iteration would entice you back.

No in-home demo of Esoteric contemplated. I am waiting for the new Luxman flagship spinner to come out!

I haven't spoken with any dealer that has these or any new Esoteric gear that was announced since last August. Where? I've been wondering what has taken so long in these getting. here....

Well, I am too. I'm just eager to hear others' thoughts on it vs Esoteric.

I have not spoken to any dealer that has the new Esoteric gear available. Where? I've been looking since they announced last August...

My Esoteric Dealer has not received a single piece of Esoteric or Grandioso gear all this year. This was very disappointing, as I went with all Accuphase instead.
