You can just listen for any postings if anyone springs for the mod. The comments seem to be saying that it makes little sense to other Audiophiles. Which is weird itself, since audiophiles go for some really strange things. Mega dollar cables, magic rocks to hold cables, etc. are accepted in the audiophile world, so something that makes little sense would raise flags for me. The modwright hack will clearly change the sound, whether it is good or bad is a personal question, its an effect, and no other person except you an say whether or not it is a good/pleasing effect. Even if someone had it and loved it, that would not be good enough to make me run out to get it. The advantage of a tube buffer/preamp is that it won't destroy your $2000 US Transporter, which is a £2000 item in the UK. While folks who love the new sound will not call it 'destroy', if you don't like it, you are not only out the $2000 for the mod, you are out the 2K for the original transporter. It might be a very good mod, but I'd be amazed if they sell more than five of them before the Transporter is replaced by something cooler and more powerful. I don't see any point in asking the forum for only experience with it. YMMV, etc. _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
