Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it an SACD player?

    of course, that's why we should change each two years the CD-player. :D

    The shaolin is the compact version of the Kalista + C2A: for those who don't have the space of having a 4 shelf rack only for a CD-player. :D

    Metronome gives you something (volume) for the price :D

    Keepin' it real, right here in Lawrieville.

    I must say that I do like the looks of the monoblock amps but the question is, what do they sound like? Anyway, here is some translated info on CD-T300 spaceship.



    Enjoy the music,

    Lawrie.:D

    Phil,

    sorry BB 627's are the op amp world's equivilent to pipe and slippers :SLEEP: , Its been suggested that a lot of manufacterures use this particular one to 'smooth' over certain 'badgers posteria' traits in the ouput stages of their cdp's :D , going on the Shandlings 200 performance I could believe that the consistancy of this theroy is held thoughout the range :cool:
    627's Very 'Nice' sounding op-amps, translation matrix will be available soon. :)

    Any one for Tennis?, Pimms?, Noel coward & tea and cucumber sandwhiches on the lawn dear<>Quintessenital English niceness, Very Nice 'Proper' lovely, boring, terminally lacking any form of involvment, possibly does that help?

    Marvellous, thanks. Ever thought about writing an "Internals 101" paper for those of us less technically gifted?

    Im not sure if its overkill (possibly) but the design is sooooo much better than yet another silver or black box.

    Most CD players are so conservative in design they practically put you to sleep.
