Hey Guys

I'm pairing down to one system and am looking to sell this incredible source.  It's the non-wireless model (wired is better for stability on these) was modded by Vinnie with his analog output mods and includes remote and original power supply.

Here's a pic:



I'm looking to get $275+shipping for it.  PayPal adds 3% and I usually ship on Saturdays.

Thanks,
Jim (in NYC)

Bump!

Just a plug.  I have one of these Vinnie modded SB3s and it sounds outstanding.  Great analog source (I use it mainly for headphones) and so much easier than loading/unloading CDs.

Fortunately, this one doesn't have the digital mods, or I'd be sorely tempted.

Thanks guys!  Too bad Vinnie doesn't mod these anymore...his work is really superb.

In terms of mods it had the following things done to it:

1) replace dac chip to "KE" version of the PCM1748
 
2) installation of new RCA jacks... gold plated with teflon insulator
 
3) hard wire output of dac to directly to new RCA jacks via
Auricap signal capacitors.
 
4) Replace stock analog power supply cap with low ESR Panasonic FC type
 
5) Replace power supply decoupling caps to the dac with Black Gate NX-Hi-Q caps.

Jim,

Couple quick questions.  Do you have a pic of the back of the unit?  Just want to see whats going on with that cap popping out.  2nd, any nicks scratches, etc?  I'm really looking for a digital modded one but want to try a analog modded at some point.

P.S.  Are you still rocking the EVS amps?  I still love mine.

Here's a pic of the back:



The Auricaps are VERY tightly secured and everything is in beautiful shape.  There are a couple of tiny nicks on the back from performing the mods, but nothing at all noticeable and the front's perfect.  I keep my stuff in immaculate condition.

And, yep, still rocking the EVS 500M's!! 

Thanks,
Jim
