As above anyone got an address or website? Thanks in advance
I am not going to restate all the great things about this player, which I
agree with fully. I will though add my personal experiences. Do you want to
bring it up a notch to easily compete with the $1000-$1400 players. 1st,
have your local repair center convert it with an EIC socket to be able to
use a detachable high-end power cord. 2nd, add chassy dampening material to
top, sides, bottom, and back. 3rd, add very small amounts of blue tack to
D/A converters, digital clock (enclosed in a rubber thingy), and op amps.
What will you hear? Tighter better defined bass, clearer midrange, deeper
sound stage, smoother highs, removeal of a veil covering musical
presentation, more air and less confussion in complicated music passages.
You dont need a 24 bit processor or tube output on this fine player. You
just need more current to the great power supply (power cord) and a well
dampened chassy like the real high priced units. Go for it and you will blow
away the new Jolida jd-100, Micromegas, Arcams, etc. The Jolida lacks true
deep bass, the Micromegas smear the sound, and the Arcams are thin sounding.
