I don't know about y'all, but the 6 channel Aragon Aurum Class A preamp that is part of tha Aragon Soundstage that I installed yesterday most certainly does not sound like a Casio!
The only person that I'm out to impress is myself. I listen to music, and/or, movies everyday. Couldn't wait for the Outlaws any longer. The only thing I have to wait on now is the upgrade to some newer formats and 24/196 chips. With the way this unit sounds and functions right now it will be an extremely pleasurable wait.
$1700.00 on Ubid. Incredible deal. I spoke with Steve at Mondial/Aragon. With the release of the StageOne, they sold all of the remaining 2001 Soundstages to Ubid. I couldn't be more satified right out of the box. I'm just wondering how much better it will sound with a little time on it.
I'll be auctioning-off my spot on the waiting list. (Just kidding).
Good luck.
