Are Capitole and Mephisto recommended components?

I couldn't seem to find my latest Stereophile recommended component magazines but in the October 2000 list I didn't see the Capitole or Mephisto listed. I'm wondering if they have been reviewed by Stereophile and wether they recommended them or not. I've noticed alot of AGers saying that these two players are the top dogs. Has anyone done direct comparisons between one of these players and one of the Stereophile class A or A+ CD players? I would enjoy hearing your comparisons.

I do not recall either being reviewed. You can check this at the Stereophile website by doing a search of the back issues.

I can tell you the capitole mk I is better than most (all?) 'class A' cd players that I've heard or owned. I'm listening to one right now!

Disclaimer: I am friends with a local Capitole dealer.

I wish stereophile would review it. Check out www.soundstage.com, they have a good review of the capitole.

I'm not positive, but I don't think the Aero Audio Capitole was out in October of 2000.
