| DCS Verdi Elgar Purcell VS. Audio Aero Capitole No doubt the DCS is excellent gear.Having owned it would agree with the last post.My only gripe with DCS is, it was too analytical.The Captiole will ccertainly stand up quite nicely with the DCS,and to some,including myself,I prefer it over the DC... | |
| Audio Aero Prima 24/192 C.D Player A very good player for the money.Fortunately you have a good deal of choices in this price range.Compared to the Capitole,it certainly can keep up in many aspects,but lacks the overall detail,and warmth of the of the latter. | |
| SACD to Audio Aero Capitol I would probably agree with the fact that a true DSD transfer could probably be"better" than a great redbook only CD player.However with the limited titles that are true DSD it really is not worth making comparisons since there is so little true S... | |
| VonSchweikert VR4 Gen 3 vs Meadowlark Heron I As a dealer for both I favor the VSAs Gen IIIS.These speakers are disimilar is design therfore sound different.The Meadowlark has a smaller soundstage,and does not quite have the depth the gen IIIS have.In no way are Meadowlarks slouches,just not ... | |
| Audio Aero Capitole vs. Audiomeca Mphisto II Though both are very fine pieces,my nod will have to go the Capitole .It will be interesting to see the new release of the second generation Captitole as not only is going to a single circuit board(the current version has 3) but as of today I was ... | |
| Audiophile oddities Well I will take a stab at this.It could be loadstone which does have magnetic properties and works on the same principle as the Shatki stone.Difference being ,it is a rock or rocks,cost a hell of a lot less and is more pure than the Shatki as it ... | |
| Tube amp on the floor or on the rack? I have my Audio Aero Captiole on the floor on an amp stand.Besides the fact it weighs almost 100 pounds,the air circulation is much better than if it were to sit in a rack. With it sitting in the open is dissapates heat much better.The down side,i... | |
| French CD players' sound ? Because on person happens to make an statemant like so and so company has serious QC problems sure does not make it a fact.Bottom line, is I know of no company that does not have a complaint about something in their product line.If this dealer is ... | |
| Looking for a tube preamp that is 1700 or less. No balanced inputs or outputs on the Rogue.All single ended.My one gripe with them.Other than that they make an excellent product,very well constructed,and care for detail that some of the more expensive pieces should take note of.Performance of t... | |
| Levinson separates vs. Audio Aero Capitole I had a 37 trransport`DCS Delius and 972 upsampler.Sold it all in favor of the Audio Aero Captiole and never looked back.Great(if not one of the best)for less money and once broken in performs like no other.Unfortunately they are also very hard to... | |

| Audiophile's New Year Resolutions? My resolution is I will continue to keep buying and buying because I am addicted.So I am not going to pretend that I will not.Only kidding!Maybe I am not.Oh well,Happy New year to all. | |
| Good SS amp for VR-4 and GFP-750 The best amp for any VSA is the Spectron Musician II.Albert will be using it at CES this year.If you are interested in one email me. | |
| Von Schweikert VR-4 Gen III or B&W 802? Though I am biased,I have hear both and the VSA is far superior paticuraly in the mid range.It also goes lower than the BWs. | |
| Best AES EBU dig cable for DCS Percell and Delius I use the Stealth AES/EBU top of the line and it is absolutely flawless.All the Stealth is top notch. |
