Audio Aero Capitole MK II: Performance & Problems

The software is user replaceble.Just a chip and not for all pieces.The performance is outstanding.Make sure you buy from authorized US dealers only, otherwise you will pay for the chip(if needed) and have NO warrantee and will be on your own for repairs.Not worth the gamble for a hi price piece such as this.Globe Audio Marketing(the official distributor for Audio Aero)will stand behind you and in most cases just replace the piece should a problem occur during the warrantee period.

Performance : magnificient player, best ive ever owned and heard on demo. Needs its 'short' break in period and then it really pins you to the floor with its realism and musicality.

Problems : i would be lying if my player didnt have any problems. It did. The best way to avoid these is to get the latest software installed, which as sattothestars said is user replaceable and will solve all the small quirks people have been reporting. All Mk II on sale now should have the latest soft upgrade which came out last month, so you dont need to worry about that anymore. My guess is Audio Aero was under pressure to get out the player and rushed the software a little bit. But it is now solved.

Glad to know that you are now concentrating on music, not on problems any more. Mine has gone back to France for the software upgrade. How long is the burning period?
