WADIA 270/27ix vs. CAPITOLE


Has anybody auditioned these two units in the same chain? What's your opinion?
Thanks

I am a dealer for Audio Aero so this post may seem a bit biased.

I had the Wadia combo, which I had taken in on trade just prior to the Audio Aero arriving for us to audition. I was not that impressed with it. I found it very hifi sounding and quite aggressive. The Wadia lacked musicality. The Capitole was very clearly superior. The only CD player that I have heard that even compares with the Capitole is the Linn CD-12 at $20,000.

Good Luck,
