I recently came across an old article from the National Audio Show 2014 at Whittlebury, this was shortly after Albarry (Neil Burnett) had released their new amplifiers. In this article they speak of a prototype cd player that Albarry was working on and in the photos you can see what looks like an old Technics cd player with "Albarry Music" stuck on the front I'm guessing this was just the base to work off but it's made me very curious and I'm wondering has anyone seen or heard of this Prototype CDP? I've left a link down below if you'd like to check it out for yourself.

I attended that show , Had a extended chat with Paul and managed a short chat with Neil ( RIP )

Can't remember if the tt was playing or the CD :scratch:

However yes It sounded good :)

I was at that show and heard the system pictured (I even wrote a well received show report about it). It was indeed one of the best rooms of the show - unfortunately I don’t remember the CD player.

I heard and stocked everything Neil (God rest him) made in those latter years and there was never any mention of a "CD player". I guess it was a bit tongue in cheek.
