Audio Aero Capitole 24/192 vs the MKII version cdp

Anyone know the difference between the original Capitole and the more recent MKII version?Considering an upgrade via the used marketplace and can not find any specifics as to the difference on thier web site and also havn't seen any comments as to how differently the 2 sound.
Understand that there is also a MKIII version now. Thanks in advance!Ted

the Mark 2 is much better especially the bass alot more authority and much better definition the differences are worth the price definitely having owned both previously.

As I have been told the Mk II improves greatly in the bass region and increased resolution across the board.

I am not sure there is a Mk III version coming out, perhaps it is the Mk II SE (special edition that the North American importer is offereing) which changes some caps out as well as replaces the tubes with NOS cryo'd tubes. I do think they told me they sent one of their units to AA for them to review... perhaps that will be the Mk III...

I would give Globe Audio a call (the North American Distributor) and ask them, they were very helpful and insightful as to thte differences between the models.
