Default K-01 in Da House

My new K-01 was deliverd this morning i'm like a kid on christmas setting it up right now in the main system...this beast is HEAVY!!! Excellent packaging this baby is a real beauty. Here some pics more to follow.

Here's a couple of pics installed in the rack, the k-01 blends in nicely with the rest of the Mcintosh gear i love the look.

WOW! Jerry. The best of the best! What are you going to do with your MCD1100?

I am seriously considering the K-01. My Oppo 105 doesn't cut it!

Congrats on the new K-01 Jerry. You should relax in your sweet spot for the rest of the day while your back recovers.

Jerry.......Wow. I thought you were going with a K-03. Man, you went for the cream of the crop. Beautiful. Hope to see a review once the break-in period has past.

Thanks guys already popped some Alieve for the back really getting a workout this morning, put the K-01 in the rack + removed the MC2301's and installed the MC1.2kw's in the rack at the same time thank god my son was around....but believe me its all worth it I'm listening to it and it sounds incredible, voices and instruments sound so different and natural hearing every breath the singer takes its AMAZING!!

Mike im going to keep the MCD-1100 putting it in my 2nd system its a keeper for now...Don't hesitate a K-01 or the K-03 on your system will sound fabulous.

Jerry - are you keeping both the 2301's and 1.2kw's and selling the MC75's? You've caught some serious LuFlu and JoeMikeitis. You have two absolutely beautiful systems. You MUST have the best system in all of PR! WOW. So happy for you my friend.

Congrats again!

Mike
