Yes, I know, and I am sorry about that, but I wanted to get started sooner than months of fiddling around behind the scenes would have allowed.I actually started on a Mac.com site which did some things beautifully, but didn't allow for a forum, then added Yahoo, which did the forum thing and photos well, but nothing else, and at that point I had two sites which was a rather clumsy arrangement, so I decided to go back to using the Triode & Co domain, (dotUS this time rather than dotcom due to someone holding the old domain name hostage.) I dug into,(and am still digging further into!), PHP and MySQL to get the power and flexibility I need to cover all areas I think are necessary to build a first rate community.
The only power-that-be at AN is Peter, and he leaves this stuff up to me. ;-)
There will be three new players out in limited quantities by late February: the CD1.1x and CD2.1x/II, (seen/heard at THE Show w/o faceplate), which both use a front-loading Philips transport and DAC chip set with a 6111WA tube as was used in the previous generation one-box players. This time they are not only non-oversampling, but filter-less as well.
The chassis is full-width, but shorter and shallower than one of the full-size preamps or the OTO. The CD2.1x/II improves on the CD1.1x with better parts: Audio Note tantalum resistors, a few Black Gates and AN copper foil output capacitors rather than tin foil.
The CD4.1x is basically a CDT Two/II with a slightly upgraded DAC2.1x (tants and BGs on digital PCB and copper foil capacitors on the output), housed in the OTO chassis.
The sharp-eyed will have noted that "3" has been skipped. The programing for the Sony front loading transport in the long-promised CD3.1x/II continues to be problematic. There is no projected release date for this one at this point.
I'll be adding this and a bit more (hopefully pictures!) to both Triode and the AN UK site yet this week.
Keep your ears and your mind open.
