Audio Aero Prima 24/192 Mk II cd player......

Sent APL a mail once,regarding pricing on the APL modded Denon,unfortuanately,got no response...Then asked a friend who owns an APL Denon to ask the person at APL to kindly answer my mail.Turns out he thought I was an African scammer ... !! Did not want to answer my mail for that reason...
No "CE" marking on the APL,so import not possible...

"Nigerian scammer"

So what was it that made you decide to go ahead and buy the Prima, Blue? Why did you decide to buy new as opposed to used on a'gon?

Happy Listening!

Anyone here owned both the philips and the new sony transport version want to make a sound comparison?

All I can tell you is that the transport on my used Prima is totally dead according to my local audio guy. He said it would be a minor fortune to get it fixed because AA mods the transports somewhat I assume to fit the rest of it. This one has to be the older one a Philips I assume and the tube used for the output is a 6922 type. I rolled it to my liking. I can tell you this Warren I miss my Prima it made my whole system relaxed and I didn't find it forward at all. Right now I bought an older Granite which has excellent detail retrieval is musical but I miss the Prima it was sublime. I have enough clarity in the rest of my components that I don't need a super crisp CDP.
Does anyone know how I can replace the transport without going to AA? Thanks in advance.

P.S. Warren I listened very carefully once again to "broken in" Druids. Your right they are not exactly clock radios but....I start a thread to discuss that.

Mechans ;
I too have moved from the AA Prima to a Granite . I have found that the Granite is just more of everything that the Prima was . I am curious as to what about the Prima that you prefer . What speaker and amp are you using ?
