Audio Aero Capitole 24/192 - MK I vs MK II

previously owned both also the 2 is way way better overall definitely especially the bass. See my previous post regarding the specific sonic differences between the Capitols.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ddgtl&1090942019&openusid&zzMejames&4&5#Mejames

Thanks guys. Those are great and informative posts so far.

Do you guys know if the digital sections (DACs, etc.) are identical? From the descriptions I found of each player, they appear to be identical.

Thanks
Ron

hello pose this question to Steve Huntley at Great Northern Sound Company he modifies Audio Aero players he would know the answer. Why are you so interested if the digital section is exactly the same? If I may ask? are you aware of the Audio Aero Prima Mark 2 D/A converter? It has the same exact digital and tube output stage as the Capitol 2 does. Sounds like you intend to use another transport instead of the complete Capitol player is this correct?

Hi James,

Actually I do not intend to use another player as a transport, if I went with the Capitole I. I am just curious as to what changes were made - sorry I am an engineer.

Thanks for the additional suggestion reagrding Prima 2 DAC.

Regards
Ron
