Hi, (sorry for my english)
www.vocativeaudio.com
I'm very interested to purchase this beautiful little transport.
They claim " CDM12 laser head " and they claim also this is a NEW product.
How is it possible ( I believe philips CDM12 was discontinued) ?
Maybe is it a chinese clone ? If it is, do you think it can be
anyway a good product/ work ok as the original ?
There are so many good chinese DACs ( Lite and others) but so a fews
transports ..........
I will appreciate your comments 🙂
Thanks,
Paolo

The price for the Vanguard CD12M is 448 USD.
They have said the laser head are still in production right now
and it is a true Philips part. The rest is produced by themselves.
Frankly I was hoping a bit less money

Hi Zoran,
I am missing your point : the kit cost 48 USD less ? This seems reasonble to me , saving a lot of time
Issues are the shipping costs + tax for a product that have not
CE compatible !
Am I sure this stuff work ok for next 10 years ?
Am I sure the laser switched off when I open the "door"?
I am confused/skeptical

hi,
or a CDROM drive maybe 😀
Very fun, my brother has said me the same thing.
But I am "retro" and I like those stupid high-end stuff
Moreover I have read bad comments in other thread about Philips
CDM series. Anyway for sure cdpro2 is better. But the diyhifi kit
is LESS laser pick-up . I need a completed/assembled player.
Do it exsist ?

Zoran,
maybe now you are incorrect
the Vanguard is completed/assembled player. No kit .
This is the main difference for the plus price you pay .

If it that, then OK
I did not know that is assembled.

but

I think that You already will have finished modules
with elements soldered, on original KIT form...
so just to link some wires, and screw the chassis?
