Audio Aero has a component called the Prima DAC. Actually it should be named the "Capitole DAC" becuase it uses exact D/A section and tubed output w/volume control as the Capitole Mk2 cd player. Retail price is 4995. Expect nearly the same sound from this piece, less the transport section of course.
There is one more added bonus. They are now shipping with 3 analog inputs on the rear so this unit is now a full function preamplifer.
