it's MKII
i confirm it's more than 70K
i heard it from MR. Kuichi himself..
then i got ask again to reconfirm.. lol.

first batch is using JVC Pickup. while MKII is using CD Pro2 pickup...
and we indeed compared it againts puccinni and we all agreed that the remiyo is much much better.
and one owner of scarlatti also confirmed order to swap to remiyo CDP earlier.
and he told me he likes remiyo better.

i can confirm it sounds much more better with this spike shoe.
everythings is SO FAST now. accurate. yet doesn't feels any lag.. so fun listening to my sonus now.

Added on June 12, 2009, 2:46 pmi beg them for quite long time already for the spike shoe.. lol..
i just wanna get "real" whole set..
from the hair to toe..
by the way
Auditor M is seriously impressive...
wait i started working i will seriously find money for that.
now too poor to afford it.

by the way. i realize that if the floor is hard enough. use the sonus original spike on the floor won't going to scratch the floor as it's head is quite blunt..
and it sounds the best without any spike shoe.
everythings is fast. and yet evolving.
when put on spike shoe. .. it does shrink the positioning a little bit..
PS: above statement were not including harmonix tuning feet.

lol.. kena poison kao kao ah.. mini KLIAV.. PcWork Edition... lol..
serious poison from krell.. damn fast...

Thanks pals. lol.... the speed of krell is really not play play one. after that i use all earphone / headphone / NAD to drive my sonus.. sounds tasteless..

at wisma MPL.
Raja chulan monorial station. very very very near to your place. even consider walking distance already.

when is ur flight?
now i am in miri eh..
lol

i am back at next saturday. wanna visit there together?

most probally weekdays..
he will back to miri by then if not by weekday.

yeah. at first i bought the stand and tested it on my speaker. i got a feeling that. even i describe the improvement in here. no one going to believe it. it's just too good to be true. just change a stand.. while the other things remain. and yet it upgrade everythings. it's just too good to be true to be describe. lol.
who will believe just a single stand makes a different that much. while costing RM2K for just a stand. sounds like a big idoit.
lol. and i did believe that it's useless if you just tilt the normal speaker stand 6 degree according to the ori stand. but it just different. different in material. differnet in weight. different in center of gravity.
but anyway until now i still glad i did the purchase of the stand.

Pictures....








I move my old 5 years old Aego m into my room for astro. sigh.. some more connected with pure silver cable made in germany.. that cable is so short that it can only fit from astro to aego m. lol so have to use it.. but it don't bring any significant upgrade in sound though. while it reveal a lot of cracking.. poping sound in astro.. haha crazy..
while pinnacle sound bridge, and CDP were play by sonus faber through audio analoge..

lol. no time to take nice nice photo. just simply snap shot..

i have target on CDP already.
just saving up only.
i won't use CD mat. i found the sound is fake. and it's listening to the sound of the carbon fiber. lol.
i have the CD mat. but return it back already. personally i don't like the sound of several CDmat i ever tested.

the audio analogue doesn't come with XLR.
the rear panel is still exactly same as first version.
the changes is done internally. bigger transformer.. bigger heatsink. and bigger grill holes. and other electronics i not sure of which. that's all i can observe roughly by comparing them side by side without opening them. i think the size still the same. as i did stack the version 1 and version 2 together. ver2 did sound better on direct comparison. more stable. more powerful to my ear. although both were still rated at 70W per channel. the version 2 seems to improve quite very much in term of control. especially on concertino domus.

so this Primo settanta only comes with RCA. 5 pair of them which one of them can be use as photo stage.

the network player is indeed Roku soundbridge M1001. so far i couldn't be happier by it's performance. however i mainly use it for internet radios which running mostly mp3 / WMA at 128 kbps max. so the sound wise.. i still appreciate it.

while connect it to my computer to play some lossless. i stll prefer it done by my CDP. perhaps i using better interconnect from marantz to amp (VDH D102 MKIII)
while roku sound bridge only offer Stereo mini jack out , coaxial , optical. unless i upgrade it with DAC. else the cable option is very much limited. currently i am connecting it using a Canare Cable done as Stereo -> RCA. which honestly.. sounds not quite on par to my system.
initial test of me to the cambridge audio DAC magic.. i found it has not much different compared to CA CDP 540. that's why i drop off the intention to get it.
i might targeting on benchmark DAC1 for that. but the price is quite high for me. especially after purchase of stand and amp.

currently i really hope to upgrade my bottom rack which consist of MDF (the section i place my Astro, marantz, and Aego M satelite). i have eyeing on some marble for it.
the upper rack which i place my amp is indeed made with marble already. and i find the sound is very much improved.

my room too small. just temporary use it as it is.
wait i got better room after i graduate only i set it up accordingly.
but it still sound seriously good though.
TOY is small. but the sound ain't small eh.

RM 3K to RM 3.5K

i use NAD3020A previously.....
now of course AA is much much better.. =P

those who are very interested with TOY.. and very serious buyer. pls do drop me a PM.
i might organizing a bulk buy of the TOY in order to get cheaper price.
in fact. much cheaper than the price listed in hifi show. yet can get full warranty from perfect hifi and sonus faber. with official receipt.

yeah. seems the price is hike up. i not sure why oso.
so i manage to called alvin today. and have a brief discussion. that i might able to get each TOY slightly under RM 4K which is similar with previous price if not cheaper.

by getting more quantity i can have more "power" to talk with them regarding the price.
i myself have two serious friend who already decided to take it.
so my intention is to keep the price of my friend as low as possible.
i myself won't involve with the deal. i am just gather all order and get a bulk price. while all money will directly transfer from buyer to perfect hifi account. and official receipt will also issued BY PERFECT HIFI for each buyer of the TOY

so it is no different as in each purchase. the only different is we all have to strike at once. and hence get cheaper price.
of course i myself did request alvin to treat me some good meal if it was really happened. lol.

good things is TOY doesn't have to use specific stand for it.
its built to use with normal stand..
usual stand.. most ex oso about RM 450 can get already...
while dedicated stand for concertino domus. is retailed for RM 2.9K each..
after serious discount oso RM 2200 .. JUST FOR STAND... sigh..

and from what i heard of TOY.
if you have lack of budget on amp. TOY can anytime sound better than concertino on lower budget amp.
i tested it on Denon AV amp and it pawned concertino domus.

concertino domus only start to sound good if have budget to get good amp that cost more than RM 4K and above.
and only will overtake the performance of the TOY after paring concertino with amp that about RM 8K-10K.

on cheap amp. the TOY sounds so energetic.. and so fast. but concertino domus on denon AV amp is seriously CRAP to my ear. and TOY tweeter is imho better than concertino domus. they look alike of the cremona series. while the mid bass look alike to the one on minima vintage.

upper mid and treble is so much superior on TOY..
while concertino seems less refine compare to TOY on that. unless seriously power amp and seriously nice CDP were added into the link. then it is different story agian.

don't try if u don't intended to buy.. it's very very serious poison...
and it stay in my mind almost all the time.

it can kill of a lot of floorstander with the bass amount it can produce and the speed, and the projection of the sound is so huge.. that u won't even can imagine it's coming from that small bookshelve...

compare to it. concertino domus is like little baby.

well.. i will definitely buy one auditor M if i can afford it. even though eat blank roti for whole year oso i willing.
but it just too far away from me... i no eat no spend oso whole year impossible to save up that amount.
