DK Design Group X-Dream - wow

Marco, all excellent points. I don't doubt that these speakers sound exceptional, and it'd be a shame for the Audiogon community to start piling on at this stage.

However, considering the circumstances of the Positive Feedback review, namely a more-or-less paid sales presentation by DK, and lacking published specs or detailed listening commentary, the review cannot be taken as more than product marketing, in my opinion. It'd be great to see a more objective review, free of the pressures of conducting an audition in the manufacture's facility and with electronics supplied by the designer.

Sure makes me want to hear 'em, though!

After reading the review,I myself, I would like to
hear them also.Very impressive review.Thanks

so when do the free audiogon review samples start shipping?

oh...and if the DK amp is supposed to outperform other amps costing 3x the price...does this mean that we are actually getting $75,000 worth of speakers for the low low price of only $25,000.

act fast...supplies are limited

I find it particularly odd that they didn't use DK amps to drive the speaker. Makes one wonder. I do have to agree with Chanliz though, I'll bet 95% of the cost of that speaker is in the aluminum and not the drivers or crossover. The enclosure plays a huge role, but only if it is designed correctly.

We can debate the veracity of some claims made for DK stuff, but one claim, that it takes three months to machine one enclosure, is absurd. An automated machining facility such as the reviewer cites, ought to be able to knock off several per day, with most of the time taken up by manual setup. If it really took 6 months/pair they would cost a lot more than $25,000.
