Hello! This is my humble setup. Please feel free to comment. The KARA is one of the most revealing and transparent speaker in the market at this price point. Matched with UK's CHORD electronics, she not only sing! She'll embrace you :) Recently added the Chord Blu transport with DAC64 to complete my setup. Now that's when the KARAs "disappear".... or this is how my audiophile friend call it. Unbelievable transients. Truly happy visceral vibrations! I am done for now i guess( for a little while). Thanks for looking.
