The interconnects (between my Audio Aero Capitole MkII CDP and my Audio Research VT100 MkII) at f... | |
| Furitech vs. Bedini Demagnitizer Thanks for the responses. Obviously, we have a member with an attitude problem (no name, but it's obvious above). He needs to take the time to learn how to be a human being. What a little prick (I hope I spelled that right for him)! | |

| CD players with variable output/volume control I own an Audio Aero Capitole MkII CDP. It is the only piece in my audio system that I have no plans for replacing or upgrading. It is simply too, too good in every area. I run my amp directly from the Audio Aero. You will never miss a preamplifier... | |
