As we import the Audiomeca we believe it is certainly a worthy contender for one of the most refined units available.We will show the new Aloia inductive cd player at ces room 1312 and by all indications it will raise the bar just as the 1301 amp and 1101 preamp have.We would urge anyone looking for digital upgrade to look into this unit.They will be available at select dealers in about 30 days.Projected price well under 4000.00.Also gives you a tuner option from add on cube.
Help on premium cd player
I've been playing around with separates (upsamplers, dacs, transports) seeking like many something that sounds right (like vinyl?). Lately been trying to find a good transport to work with my, largely used, collection of parts. Have now stepped back and realized that I'm already out $3-4,000 and still don't have what I'm looking for, and tired of the search. I want to listen to music. So switching tactics and looking for a really good player in the $3-5,000 range {used), then sell off my "inventory", rationalize cables and rack space and just enjoy (90% classical, jazz and vocals). My candidates, based on reviews and hours reading threads here and AudioAsylum, are
Accuphase dp 65x or 75
Audio Aero Capitole 24/92
Audiomecca Mephisto II
Electrocompaniet EMC-1 Mk2 24/92
Wadia 860x
As an old banker I get a warm feeling if the manufacturer isn't likely to disappear overnight. To those who suggest that I first audition and trust my ears, I agree 100% in theory, but it's not possible where I live.
Comments/recommendations from those who have owned more than one product or were otherwise able to directly compare two or more especially valued.
Oh, my equipment includes tube and transitor pres and amps so I'm flexible, not a zealot for either philosophy!
Many thanks in advance for your contribution. And apologies if this post is too long, just try to preclude questions rather than answers.
