The first shipment is scheduled to arrive on Jan 28, They have to clear customs and then be transported from LA to Chicago by rail. I'm hoping to have them in my possession the first week of Feb.
The Cd Player will use the Burr Brown 1732 with HDCD as its DAC.
The top quality transport mechanism is made by Philips.
It will use a pair of 6DJ8s for its analog output. It also has a digital output .
The headphone jack with separate volume control is also going through the tube analog output.
Remote control is made from a single piece of solid aluminum.
There will be an upcoming review from Soudstage in the near future. As soon as they arrive I will ship one out for a review.
6moons.com will also be doing a review in the future by Srajan but he is swamped with other equipment right now from the CES show so it will be in the near future.
The Cd Player will retail for $1350, we try to make it as affordable as possible.
Thanks for considering our Line of products.
Kindest Regards,
Bill

Please put me on the audition list Bill, a reference source is the only thing lacking in my system. And I want one bad (not to be confused with "a bad one")
