Who remembers California Audio Labs?

Yes I remember CAL and their products, at the time they were quite cutting edge. I believe that their transport and CD players were built on the Phillips machines utilizing the CD4 transport system. Although never owning any of their products I did run the big Phillips CD80 cd player, first as a player and then as a transport digitally linked out to the original PS Audio Digital Link and adding the Audio Alchemy Digital DTI filter in the chain when they became available. This system I ran for a good 12 years and had me just purchasing CDs and neglecting my analog setup. Happy to say I am back on the analog side of things as my primary. Enjoy the music

I had a CAL CL-10 5-disc CD player.  The transport carousel design was not robust and it broke twice.  I sent it back for repair the first time but I junked it after the second time.  Despite the mechanics, the sound was good; I felt bad about saying goodbye.

I'm still running an Icon MkII.

I'm still running and enjoying a Delta transport/Sigma II DAC (24/96) combination in a secondary system. 

I had the cal audio labs combo , at the time when much digital was not that good
