| Is Exemplar the answer? Tbg, I have made no claims. My APL is fully broken in, The Exemplar has had about 24 hours of break in, certainly not enough to pass any judgement. When I had the exemplar from Ric in my system, comparing to the APL(before the new chip/volume cont... | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Right now I have the APL modded SACD 1000 AND the exemplar, as of today the APL wins. I am sure Dans mods are excellent too. All will depend on YOUR EARS,not a reviewers. Plus you need to listen to your own music(tastes, likes)with all ancillary e... | |

| Is Exemplar the answer? Tbg, what is this AudioTop contact treatment? And please do explain the improvement, along with explaining why the Exemplar sounds only pretty good at first, than bad, than great. I really do not understand. | |

| Is Exemplar the answer? Streetdaddy, did you pay him up front?Yes the denon has never not played a disk for me, yet. | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Tvad, I have talked to Alex, Dan, and John about the 3910, Alex is the only guy who actually has modded both the 2900 and the 3910/he said sonicly on his machines, which he says is like a custom paychev special/no longer denon, they sound the same... | |
| CDP at $1200- 2000 for this system Keep your 2900 and have it modded by either Alex Paychev, Dan Wright, or John Tucker...IMHO, and those of many others, these players will BLOW away all suggested player withe ease. | |
| Tube Suggestions 6922 4 pathos Classic one When I had my version 2, I found the 6dj8 amperex's to give the best soundstage/imaging/bass, plus I have a ton of them for pretty cheap if you need some, both NOS and like NOS.I have tried mullard/siemans/amperex ect and found the amperex to give... | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Alex Paychev, and Dan Wright are already modding the 3910, so I really do not believe John will have any problem whatsoever in using his mods. Alex says his modded denons best his SACD 1000 which is a GREAT player. Dan says, IHO the 5900 is his be... | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Jean, I will let you know soon, but I will not have Alexes new denon, just the SACD 1000 with his new DAC chip/volume control. Alex says the denon bests the SACD 1000, but is mor expensive too, he really replaces most all internal, Alex says. Time... | |

| Is Exemplar the answer? John is great to work with, as far as timeframe, I cannot comment. I helped to sell a few extra, plus i am buying his pre-amp, so maybe I got a little ahead of myself. John is busy, don't call just once and wait, call again, and again..you will ta... | |
| Jolida 100 vs Eastern Minimax The minimax blows away the jolida in my system, It is just smoother, more extended, more musical, and plays HDCD. I use Amperex A frame orange logos now, a bit more detailed than the bugle boys. Tube rolling is real easy, and a blast. And for what... |
