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 (unless you want to add phono, or start adding more inputs). You can't go wrong with the Audio Aero. One of the best CDP's I have ever heard, period!
CD players with variable output/volume control
Hi - I am a single-source guy, and I want to run a CD player directly to my poweramp. I know there are some good units out there with volume controls on the remote, but I don't know of many. Here are the ones I know of:
Xindak Muse 1.0, 2.0, 3.0
Xindak SCD-2
AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000
Several Marantz units...
Any other moderately priced units out there? Am I crazy to want to do this? I hate preamps, especially when I only use them for the volume control...
