http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=123436.200 (11th page) happens to be really good - even though its 128 kbps - it sounds really good - who knew?
Just wanted to say that i leave my unit on 24hrs a day mostly - and the top of the unit where the tubes are barely gets warm - it continues to sound really good - and its so glitch free!
its nice having that nice tube richness without it being overdone - also my wife and daughter (14 years old) can use the sony easily (via the smartphone app) without having canipshuns
not sure what of all im saying belongs in this thread
really impressed sonically with the level 1 mods - everything mostly sounds a little more put together - bass seems more realistic - and the detail seems more pronounced.
if you can swing it - its a no brainer!!
