Modwright Mods Sony or Denon


Just wondering if anybody has heard a head to head with a Modwright Sony 999es v. Modwright Denon 2900/3910. I currently own the Sony 999es and was seriuosly thinking about the mod he does on this unit. I do not have any experience with the DVD-A format which is the only extra format that the Denon would offer and I am not much into multi ch SACD, so basically I am looking for the best option for redbook, 2 ch SACD, and DVD video.

Thanks

The law of diminishing returns kicks in bigtime in this situation. I recently heard a Modwright Sony 999ES in my system with my APL Denon 3910. They were two different flavors, but the Modwright was a terrific player. Since Dan has a "house sound" I would think the differences between the Sony 999ES and Denon 3910 might be subtle, and you could be better off spending your upgrade dollars elsewhere. The Modwright Sony 999ES is an excellent machine, and should be easy to live with for quite some time. If you're looking for a different sound, you might need to look at another player or another modifier.
