Modwright Sony 999ES: Impressions of Modifications

Have a new Sony 999ES I'm sending to Dan at Modwright. Considering spending $1750 for the Signature Truth Platinum Level mod.
Any of you out there have any experience with Platinum, Gold, Silver or Basic Signature Truth mods and can comment on your player's performance? I realize ultimately that synergy from system to system will vary the performance. Just looking for a little descriptive info. Currently using the Jolida JD 100. Thanks

There's a lot of info about the Modwright Sony mods in the discussion archives, including user reviews, comments and comparisons. Have you done a search of the threads?

Yes, Tvad I've searched the forums and read everything but there isn't much specific information on the performance of the different levels of mods. Just trying to drill down on more specific experience with the mods. the range in price from 1150 to 1750 is significant.

Foster_9, Dan's tube stage is what he's known for. I'd recommend
foregoing the intermediate modifications and doing the full Platinum
mod with the clock upgrade if it's something you can afford. There's
probably a good reason why there's a dearth of commentary about the
lower level Modwright modifications, namely few have chosen them over
the full-monty tube stage mods.
