Lukasz Has Done It Again

[ctydwn]

Just a quick update. After stalling out at our local DHL facility for 3 days (they were apparently loathe to deliver it given the weight lol ), Aphrodite has arrived.

Everything looks gorgeous so far. It really is a beast (maybe 160 pounds in the flight case). Horizon flight case same width and depth but height of Aphrodite's 2 or 3 inches more. Definitely going to be a two person job here, at least for me, to get it upstairs and onto top of rack. Hope to get it up and running this weekend!

Thank you Fred, Lukasz and the team and for coordinating the delivery! Couple pics....

and, wow, they were not kidding around with this remote. About the size of a iPhone max and a bit heavier, seriously solid. Hope some other manufacturers take note (not necessarily the size but the build quality)!....

I hired two movers just to get it from the garage down to the listening room and on top of the rack.

You are most welcome!

So glad it finally made it in seemingly great shape! Yes, it's true that this is a very heavy piece, but those straps make moving it a MUCH easier job. Definitely take advantage of them!

Congrats and look forward to your feedback.

Best,

Fred A.

I hired two muscle men. Took them 5 minutes to get it from the case downstairs to the top of my rack Worth the money . Those red lifters made it an easy transport

This remote is our pride. It is large in the same fashion as cigar ashtrays or lighters - so they stay put and never go missing. We mill the body from a single slab of metal and each button is individually milled as well. Then the metal is glass blasted and ceramic coated for the hundred years durability. Guns are made in the same process. The pcb is made by us and then firmware is programmed , mirroring that of Aphrodite internal. We add easy to buy and easy to change aa batteries that will last 5 years. And the unique feature is the two finger operation. You cant accodentaly do anything because you need a purposeful dual press to activate a function.
For a preamp we wouldnt make such a „brick” but in this particular case you use the remote 100x less frequently than in a volume control scenario.

That is great build quality!

Hi,
Is there a manual or website where I can read about the different settings available on the remote control?
