Not familiar with the latest Esoterics, but if you are accustomed to Marantz house sound then that tells me that you prefer warmer sound rendition, shall I say with a slight analogue tint, the Esoterics are the opposite, they offer cooler sound.
To me Esoterics are more neutral, garbage-in garbage-out, and preferable and definitely step above in mechanical quality.
Another example to illustrate the point for Matrantz/Esoteric, consider the differences in overall sound character of McIntosh/Bryston.
