Description

October 1st is the goal I set to complete the cloud installation of 25 CAP panels. We're halfway there. When complete, the panels will be adjustable on the vertical & horizontal plane. The adjustments will be made via pulley system. Pre-set stops will be implemented to achieve preset angles. The motorized drive system (MAKITA) will respond to AMAZON "Alexa" voice commands.

HI Dan,

The DP75 is a great sounding RedBook player. There are people dumping these players in favor of streamers. Nothing against streamers, but for those of us that have large CD Collections it would be silly to sell. IMHO, Accuphases strength is in Digital. The drive mechanism and case work are stellar. These days I rarely spin discs. My DENON HEOS streamer (COAX or Optical) feeds the DP75. The processors are smooth as butter. The 85 however, will trounce the 75 in resolve.

Thank you Mr. 996cupracer or is it Mr."GT3 Mezger" Given your username I think we have more in common! -Kayodebun Thank you as well. I will post more images of my audio museum. I'm a bit of a hoarder. Thank You David C. AKA toudou for your support and taking the time to write such a nice comment. Can't believe it, but c o r e is quietly going on its 15th year. Talk2me, I've been an AgoN member since '98. This is the 1st time i've participated in Audiogon's "Virtual Systems." This is the happy side of Audiogon. Keeping it fun is what it's all about and learning from others. Too much bashing on the other side. I hope to be a good contributor.
