Thanks for the in depth response. I recently got into vinyl which so far tops all digital sources I've compared, excepting 24/96 DVD, which comes very close when done right. Anyway I'm currently researching digital sources and music servers that can bring me closer to that vinyl sound and feel. Thanks again.
Anyone optimized their ModWright Transporter yet?
Wondering if there are any other ModWright Transporter owners out there? if so:
* What are you using for tubes? I'm very impressed with the sound stock using the 5U4 rectifier and the 6N1P triodes. Any positive experience tube rolling?
* any other tweaks effective? Tube dampers? What are you supporting it with? I've been using Herbie's feet, but wonder if cones or myrtle blocks might offer advantages?
I'm a vinyl guy, so this whole digital thing has been a revelation to me. I've never heard a CD player that came anywhere close to delivering the sound quality and "you-are-there" feeling that the MW Transporter delivers. Not that there isn't better stuff out there, but I've never heard it. So I'm looking to get the best out of it that I possible can.
Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!
