Tombowlus, good to hear you've received your 5900. You've been patiently waiting a long time. We're all eager to read about your listening impressions. I wasn't aware the 5900 mod an an external power supply. Do you know if this applies to Dan's 2900 mod as well? Refresh my memory, did you ever consider the Denon 2900? What made you decide on the 5900 for the Modwright mod?
Thanks for the report Tom, and for explaining some of the significant differences betweeen the 2900 and 5900. I did some more research and found that the Modwright 2900 Universal Truth mod has its power supply on-board.

I think it might be helpful for others to know that Slipstream Bybees can be utilized via Bybee RCA Magic Bullets placed on the outputs of a CD player (or any other RCA output or input). I mention this only because I've tried the Magic Bullets, and find they are beneficial in some cases, and not beneficial in others...often related to which interconnects are being used. The RCA Magic Bullets provide a non-permanent method of using Bybee filters in contrast with the permanent, soldered-in Bybee Sliptreams.
