    Now you're pushing it. Jealous of the folks with vinyl are you? Maybe someday you too can own a TT. Get you mom and dad to buy you one for your 12th birthday.

    My mife told me NO WAY. I acually thought she would like the look. I thought it would be cool if you could gut these speakers and put in Heresys. I have emailed the seller to get the inside dimensions where the speakers are housed to see if you could fit heresy. But since the wife said no, actually she said if I got these, I could not get the Lascalas this summer. I think I am going to wait on the Lascalas. But I thought I would pass the idea along.

    opps, forgot this

    Wait for a set of La Scala's. They are worth the wait.3.gif

    Bump - Back from the past.

    Well, it looks like I'm going to take my 777es to the next level. I've ordered today about $1100 worth of parts for my Richard Kern (Audiomod) upgrade.

    Reading reports on AA from owners that have taken this step say nothing but fantastic things about these mods.

    Although I only use my player for SACD, I am hopeful that the redbook performace will improve to a level where I can ditch my Cary 308 player, which will help offset the cost of this upgrade.

    Here is what is being done:

    Audio Board Cap Kit (Blackgates)

    Transport_Board_Cap_Kit (Blackgates)

    45.1584 Mhz Superclock 2

    Audio Consulting's Signal Coupling Transformer (Bypassing the Sony analog section)

    Removing some PS Chokes

    I paid $1500 for this player, and am putting another $1500 into it. So at $3000 I will have somewhere near the top of what is considered the high-end for SACD performace. It will be very close to what is heard in the well regarded Meitner ($12000)

    There goes my tax refund.... heh.

    Yes, both did.

    Landau, are you an expert in all audio relatede issues? Pretty amazing for a 34 year old. Apparently from what I can tell you have a LOT of free time. Do you ever get off your computer and out of the house? Maybe that would help relieve all that anger and tension that you have built up over the years doing absolutely nothing? It has become increasingly apparent to me that you have very low self esteem and also that you lack self confidence. I see that you try and boost it by regularly lashing out at people for no reason whatsoever here on the forum. What meaningfull purpose does that serve? Please get the medical help you so desperately need.
