I wonder how these two brands would sound together…

The Gear... Carver "Statement" Mono-blocks, Mcintosh C2300 Arcam AVR20, Oppo UDP-203 4K Blu-ray player, Sony XBR70x850B 4k, Polk Audio Legend L800 with height modules, L400 Center Channel Polk audio AB800 "in-wall" surrounds. Marantz MM7025 stereo amp. Simaudio Moon 680d DSD

    I can't imagine they wouldn't work perfectly well together. Beautiful equipment. Prices seems perfectly fine as well. I never heard of Kinki before but man that is so damn nice looking and affordable to boot.

    I would buy both and go for it. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

    I agree with Dan, the Kinki is very aesthetically pleasing!

    I considered the Kinki EX-M1 back before I went full in to Wyred4Sound. Ultimately, I couldn't find one used for a price that I though was reasonable. I don't know about their new line of small form factor products. Schiit has always been a good choice (especially for price/performance) for DACs and headphone amps, but I'm not sure their other products are class leading.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    This Schitt's getting a bit too Kinki for me.
