Hello Folks,
I have been meaning to get some info posted up here on these as a few fellow AKers had inquired about them after seeing them in the background of photos of other gear.
I have been a long time fan of Nakamichi, due in a large part to their cassette decks. My first high end system comprised mostly of components from Nakamichi.
While most all of their components I have are the typical black with gold lettering, these were a departure from the norm as the are machined out of solid aluminum and clear anodized. Their simple looks actually fit in quite well with the vintage silver gear. I still have yet to attain the 1000p DAC, but the DRAGON-DAC is exceptional with these.
Here is some info on the 1000 Series from TVK.

Approximate Weight - 35 lbs. 12 oz. / 16.2 kg

Dimensions - 17-1/8” (W) x 5-7/8” (H) x 14-15/16” (D) / 435 (W) x 149 (H) x 379 (D)
Approximate Weight - 38 lbs. 9 oz. / 17.5 kg
