Patricku: If you are talking about the Audio Aero SACD Player, I would be surprised if it released this year. Certainly nothing until September.

Mikelavigne: Thanks again for your hospitality. Next time I will take you up on the ice cream :)

As far as what was heard, I will not give my opinion as I am too involved with Audio Aero. I think your take on what we heard is very accurate in terms of how close both players were. You preferred the CD-12 by a very slight margin while Dale preferred the Audio Aero Capitole slightly. I think if there were 10 people in the room, 5 might agree with you and 5 might agree with Dale. Definitely not as clear a difference as when we went to vinyl. WOW!!!!!

I also want to point out that there are many renditions of the CD-12 and Mike's is the most current. Older units do not hold a candle to the newer units.

Guys I tell you until you have heard Mikelavigne's system, you may have never heard what great audio reproduction is all about. The system is incredible!
Jtinn-Druel..........thanks ;), I don't think I will ever get to hear his system a little too far! Maybe if he plays it really loud.
Ok, I guess I will throw in my two cents here. That was my Audio Aero we were listening to at Mike Lavigne's house and I am the Dale that Jtinn talked about.

Thanks to Mike for sharing his system with us. It is out of this world. Mike's description of what we heard is very accurate. I think the Linn CD-12 is a great player. I have never heard more resolution from any CD player. I liked the Audio Areo slightly better because of a more live, expansive sound , that is easily attributable to the Audio Areo's gain stage.

Listening to vinyl on Mike's Rockport turntable was a trancendent experience. We were falling off our chairs and there was applause after many songs. Thanks again Mike for a great afternoon of listening.
