Audio Aero Prima Owner's Musical Taste

Jazz, lotsa jazz. You will hear every detail that is on the cd. If you are in the likes of Brian Hughes, Thom Rotella, Chuck Loeb, Jeff Lorber and so on, this is the player to get. Match it with a Prima amp and a good set speakers, you will be in audio nirvana. Try Globe Audio or Audio Gallery in Toronto if you just want to get one. I second Peterd's advice, just get one, no auditioning is neccessary.

In SWan Francisco, the authorized Audio Aero distributor is AUDIOVISION, located at 1603 Pine St., just off rom Van Ness.

Call first, I know they have the Mark II hooked up to that really wonderful Audio Aero Capitole Tube Amp. They might have a prima, too. Also, I hear rumors of another distributor in the East Bay, perhaps in Berkeley.

The Prima does sound really good. I opted for the Mark II, used. If you can afford a new Prima, go for it. Each new release by Audio Aero only gets better.

Thank you guys..(no offense) Just like buying a car...you test drive it and see if it is what you REALLY like to have..

I'm even considering bringing my "to be replaced" CD/LD player to the store for sound comparison..to really hear that magical sound that a lot of u guys are raving about.

Don't get me wrong I like everything I read on this Prima 24/192 here on the gon.

But in all fairness..

Sytem consist of the FF:
SF Line2SE;MC402,ML Ascents, Pioneer CD/LD player CLD D604, Audioquest interconnects, Changlighspeed CLS6600 ISO conditioner.. (highly revealing spkrs)

Appreciate everyones help on this.

Bringing what you got to compare with what you want is a great idea. I believe in this eventhough when I have advocated this approach hereabouts I get the usual..."no two listening rooms are alike, it won't be the same on YOUR speakers, or the amps are different....".

I still believe, but the chorus can be deafening, if one can excuse the pun......
