DK Design Review


Strange silence on the recent DK Design review considering all the comments previously about this integrated.

Ellery, you mentioned something about how DK has over-the-top marketing for the X-Dream loudspeaker, but their own touting is nothing compared to what the reviewers are saying. Here is a quote from an actual review of the DK X-Dream speaker:

"I have to say that the X-Dream F7 loudspeaker system is the best that there is, the best that there ever was, and I suspect the best that there will ever be. It is the most impressive audio component I have ever experienced, and gets my vote for product of the decade."

What do you think other manufacturers in high-end audio would be doing if they got a review like that? I bet they would be touting it everywhere, in all their advertisements, and in all the magazines. Comparatively speaking, DK is being pretty laid back about it.
Definitely sounds like something someone very new to high end audio would say.
Drubin, I think the point is that, either everyone writing reviews for DK products are clowns or DK products really are that good. So many clowns, in so many different magazines, around the world? As much as you want to think that your equipment is better, unfortunately for you DK is taking over the industry - and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
"DK is taking over the industry". What a crock of crap that is!

X-Dream F7, is that in production? Where can I audition it or buy it? Perhaps Larry is just waiting for the opportunity to pounce on the opportunity that the review presents, or more probably he is too smart to do so. As I recall it is somewhat flawed - Just another reviewer clown/clone IMHO. The same internet rag is the one the pronounced the original DKII as being so great, in absolute terms, not just a good amp with value which is what the consensus appears to be.

With supporting comments such as yours its small wonder cynics abound when it comes to DK's stuff. If I ever get to hear it I'll offer my opinion on its value/sound ratio.
