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.
As far as whether the Prestige vs. Capitole is that much better should be determined by Unclejeff with a side-by-side comaprison with both units fully warmed up in your own system. To me the Prestige plays Redbook CD's outstanding. One of the largest differences I think you will note that the Prestige carries more realistic micro/macro dyanmics and a larger soundstage but this should be your call in your system decided by your tastes.
