K-03 review from Sound Stage Hi-Fi
There is still very little info out there in my opinion on the K-01 and K-03. I try to read everything I can on these. Slowly ther are coming up. After each new piece of information I read, the more I want them!!! Still, a little out of my price league!

I like the design of Esoteric's gear as much or more that any other audio company. Jim |

Jim...did you ever give the K-03 a listen? If so, impressions? How did it compare to your MCD-1100? Thx

A local dealer was going to let me take one home to audition, but I decided to go with the MCd-1100 to keep the McIntosh look. I haven't regretted the decision at all but that does not mean the K-03 wouldn;t have sounded great too. Jim |

There is another K-03 up on A'gon today at a reasonable price. I wonder how the K-03 compares to the older but still similarly priced P-05 / D-05 seperates?

K-03 is awesome especially the USB Dac... so far have yet to hear another digital source beat this beauty...

The K-03 has my attention. I've not had a chance to audition one yet. I've also heard rumors of a K-05.

I bought a demo K-03 last month and, though it is not yet fully broken in, I am very pleased. With Synergistic cabling, the K-03 delivers excellent results. I highly recommend it and, dare I say, believe it represents a great value.
