Micromega CD players? Any reliable models?

Rives. I too,had a Micromega Stage 2. Just curious to what you upgraded to. I'm waiting on an Audio Aero Prima.
Thanks in advance. warren

I think the Audio Aero is a great choice. I bought Mark Levinson #36 DAC and #37 transport. I had the 380 pre amp. Part of it is ergonomics--they do work very well together. I'm still more prone to vinyl for critical listening sessions.

I own a Stage 6, which I purchased as an ex-demo unit some 5 years ago in UK. Within a few months, it started giving tracking problems and, being under factory warranty, was sent back to the factory in France to have the transport replaced free of charge.
Though occasionally it continues its quirks and fails to read discs I like it a lot and, with the arrival of my Capitole II, am using it in my second system.
Very smooth and detailed sound. The transport is the best part of it. At times, I use it with the Capitole DAC in my main system.

The DUO PRO line is definitely more reliable and better sounding. If I'm not mistaken Micromega were the subcontractor of the highly acclaimed Goldmun META LASER transports.

The Solo, Duo, Duo cd3, and the Trio, were all reliable (as far as I know). Certain Stages needed some kind of mod (factory supplied) & worked OK after... I had a Trio for some time; the transport was, indeed, excellent (& yes, the Trio was the basis for the Goldmund).

THE GOLDMUND META RESEARCH WHICH ARE MICROMEGA BASED UNITS ARE SUPERB.NO PROBLEMS!

I HAVE OWNED THE MICROMEGA DUO TRANPORT AND MICROMEGA SOLO CD PLAYER AND BOTH HAVE REFUSED TO PLAY CERTAIN CD'S.

FUNNY THING IS THAT BOTH UNITS REFUSED TO PLAY EXACTLY THE SAME CD'S.
