You should send those to Joe! He would lose his mind.

Hello everyone, new member here from Canada. I have owned a pair of Aubergine
DB7’s since last summer, mine are only the basic model however.
Still, just love these speakers as they are by far the best I have owned.
I have a Nagra integrated driving mine.
Currently in the process of upgrading my source, I am leaning towards a Lumin P1.
I think I need a minimum # of posts before I can post photos.

Welcome to Audioshark! Congrats on a terrific pair of speakers. We showed those at the Florida Audio Expo and they sounded terrific.

Thanks for the welcome guys,I have been reading Audioshark for years, so decided it was about time I join up.
The dealer I bought my speakers from uses Nagra HD Pre and monoblocks to demo these speakers usually.
Above my budget, but it is nice to hear what they are truly capable of.
Mike, mine basically look identical to the ones above, but I am missing the “S” upgrade.
I originally heard the S 7 model and was in love with the brand.Looks wise, they are second to none IMO.

After reading on another thread about how to post a photo, I am going to try and post a photo of one of my DB7’s.

Ah!
Clearly high end equipment look
The rest of the system please... :audiophile:
I use a Lumin P1 as my source into a Nagra MPA RCMI integrated.
I think when I took the photos of the speakers I was using an Ifi Zen stream into a Musical Fidelity Dac. I had Sbooster power supplies on the Zenstream and Dac, but the boxes and cables drove me nuts. I still have it all just sitting on the floor, need to sort out a final setup solution, hide cables etc. I will include another photo of the P1 and Nagra sitting on granite blocks for now. Right now I am testing the P1 directly into an Anthem Amp.

Sorry for radio silence. Been super busy doing renewable energy deals. Picked up this thread without reading any of it so apologies for the hijack. What is the latest with Kharma? Still considered good? Have not listened to music for a few months but now getting back into it.

I recently traded in my DB7’s for the signature version in Charlie Brown color.
Loving the upgrade so far as I break them in. I also no longer use a Nagra amp directly hooked up to my Lumin P1. Now I have an Angela Gilbert Yeung line stage preamp and power amp.
Also added a couple of his external power supplies. I have had the preamp for a couple of months, but got the amp at the same time as the speaker swap.

Congrats and happy listening! Kharma has practically doubled their prices from just couple of years ago, just nuts! At least in the USA, which is a shame really!I believe Mike the Shark dropped them because of that. Great speakers, would love me some Db-9 & 11, but these are really priced out of my budget at this point.

I know, I got a significant discount off retail price. There is no way I could afford them without that plus my trade in equipment. They are pretty much broken in now, and sounding very good. The dealer I got them from had the exquisite speakers there too which happened to be playing. He told me they were 95K, but I see them listed on his website for 115 K. WAY beyond my budget.

Congrats on the new color! I run mine without the grills but I have no pets or little fingers running around.
