Plinius CD player

Has anyone auditioned it? Any word on its availability? It'll be very interesting to have it compared to other cd players like the Wadia 302. Its integration with Plinius amps has to be seriously good indeed.

It matched or beat out or was only slightly edged by some of the best company us guys contemplate - Wadia, YBA, Resolution Audio, Audio Aero, etc. Worth a try for sure (especially if you live in NZ where they are silly cheap).

In general I find the Plinius power amps to have a kind of muscular swagger but to be quite colored and not very lively. Impressive on first listen but over time the lack of life and sparkle gets to you. The CDP is nothing like that - it is fast and has a lighter touch. Those that love Plinius may not like this CDP. If you have similar reservations about the Plinius sound to me, this CDP is something else.
