Hi Guys, Read the thread - The "new" Look Capitole for photos I posted of the Shanling on March 11. If you cannot find it. Click the link below: Link To The Post |
Just pray that the obscure shanling from the far east does not blow up quickly after you purchase it :) That would be an overseas repair nightmare!! I like the looks but at the same time am scared of the thought of it reaking havoc in my system in the event of a mechanical catastrophe! :) It uses some well known parts but that does not necessarily mean its cut out for the long haul. Lets see what some owners have to say after they have used it for a period of time. Chris |
The Shanling is now being imported by MusicHall( I beleive)and the reported retail is $2000. On inmate at AA was able to get one direct before Shanling began dealing with MH and if memory serves me right he paid about $1200 for his. This player was at the show in Montreal this past weekend retailing at $3000 Cdn or about $2000 US. As Chris indicates while the look of the player are great a little time in use will show its colors... |
Thanks to Bwhite for the great job in providing the fantastic photos of this...i'm speechless!...WOWWWW!!!!...this is one i say "don't care what it sounds like just want one to look at!!"...I thought i would never consider buying a japenese cd player (i love the french designs) and even less a chinese product! However this unit just haunts the audiorealm of my mind!!...All my past many hours of diligent research for the best digital player at around $2K has now been made obsolete...and at $2K!!!???!!! too good to be true...quality may be questionable..the waiting list will be 2 years long...by that time i'll get the SHANLING MK11...MADE IN CHINA... |
