Audio Aero Prima 24/192 C.D Player


I can not afford the new Capitole player but have been considering the Prima instead. Could you give me your opinions on this player, also how does it compare to the Capitole in sound.

The Prima is quite good. What you loose with the Prima is the ability to run without a preamp. The Capitole while being more expensive, gives you an remote controlled analog gain.

If you run one source and could get rid of your preamp, you may be able to free some extra cash to swing the Capitole.

What is the rest of your system?
Tweety: If you sell the CEC, EVS and the Herron, you should be able to afford the Capitole. It is well worth it. The Prima D/A is terrific as well, but the real purity comes when you avoid the preamp with the Capitole.
