Heard the Abbingdon Music research CD player?

I'm waiting as well.

Being somewhat of a cynic (really?) I try not to get too excited, the hype and hoopla notwithstanding.

Essentialaudio,
I stand corrected.Audiofeil I thought that excitement made you feel like a kid again?Apparently' it is a musical monster that has a musical heart.I am jealous of you poor on order guys and please let us know where the beast stands in the CDP hierarchy.We are waiting with baited breathe_Cheers Dennis

Dennis,
I am anxious to take delivery; I don't want to minimize that. However, I've been in the hobby, and now business, too long to get excited over the latest release, flavor of the day, hot ticket, newest version, etc. etc. More often than not, it's more hype than substance.

So call me excited in an adult manner taking into consideration that all 57 year olds are not adults.

:-)

Thanks.

Cenline, actually lifting that behemoth around, as we dealers need to do, will make you feel like an old man (ouch! I shouldn't have done that!). Like Audiofeil, I'm pretty jaded by all the hype and hoopla these days about stuff. We'll see how it goes.

Come on you guys,
my wife is taking a nursing course and says that 40(me) is the next (20) and that 60 is the next(40)!!So that means you guys are only 40ish for what it is worth.I would like the chance to heft that behemoth around my place,I really admire the design of the player and think that AMR has left no stone unturned.As to the hype,I really trust Darren's critical ear (this guy seems to hear winners IMHO).So if you guys aren't feeling up to it,then send the unit my way and I will do a comparison for you ( of course that is if you guys are still around).Cheers Dennis
