Audio Aero Prestiges new transport?

I bought my AA Prestige SE player in february 2006. I really love the sound of this player, but I have experienced many troubles with its transport. My player has already been repaired twice (!!). I have been thinking that I let this player go, but maybe new transport will solve those troubles. I really hope that the process is not very expensive.

If the player was purchased through the North American dealer network connected with Globe Audio Marketing in Canada and you are the original owner of the player then I believe there is no cost for the replacement. I paid shipping one way only for the repair. If your located outside this network then I don't know the answer but Audio Aero is trying to maintain customer satisfaction.

Mine was out of warranty. They still replaced the transport at no charge. I have had no problems and it is so quiet. I'm very happy with their service.

I own the Capitole. Is the Prestige that much better? I have never had a chance to try one.

Oh, I do love the Capitole.

I live in Europe and I have been told that those new transports are out of warranty. They define them as upgrades and we have to pay for them. How much, I don't know yet, because they don't answer my emails and the local distributor is very passive about this process.
