The"new" look Capitole

I heard from someone who has been doing extensive comparisons between the two capitoles that the old one is actually slightly better. Now i am kinda skeptical but what he says is that the new version presents more detail but is also more mechanical sounding and less natural. The older one has more bloom and ease but presents slightly less detail. For 2000.00 dollars more i expected the new one to render the old one obsolete. This person also does sell audio aero and he is a dealer so he is not biased towards another company has anyone heard anything else about the new player. I'm about to buy one and im not sure which version to get, but right now im leaning towards the older model. Thanks

Is the old capitole's volume control remote controlled? Also has anyone made a comparison between the old and the new capitole yet? I am going to buy one this friday and i need to know which one to get.... Thanks

My friend who heard it lives in Asia and is a distributor for audio aero. He received his new generation aero a little while ago. That is how he heard it. Just to clarify.... For those that have heard it please comment on its new abilities. Thanks

I confronted my friend about the issue that there are no Capitoles in Asia and he told me that he heard a prototype player at CES in january. Just to clarify things. The prototype obviously wont sound as good as the production models but he still stands by his word and prefers the old one. My old Capitole will be arriving shortly.
