I know nothing from the technical side of these things. What I think I know is that souncheck is what we call a tinkerer. I admire and encourage that. Tinkerers usually have more misses than hits and the fact that soundcheck does not seem to be doing this for any personal financial gain would imply that he's sort of working for both his own enjoyment and that of the general community---again, I find this admirable. He's put in a a lot of time on this stuff. So, let's please not come down on him too hard when he misses (constructive criticism on a case-by-case basis---or mod-by-mod basis,as it were---is certainly appropriate) and let's keep an open mind so that when/if he "hits", we don't automatically lump everything he tries in with the "misses". On this one, it appears that to my lay eyes/ears bluegaspode has made a good point (though, under the circumstances, I think calling it a scam was a bit harsh). When soundcheck starts trying to sell his mods to us for $5,000, that's when we ought to get extremely suspicious. Until we are given to believe otherwise, we ought to be encouraging his creativity and, when appropriate, courteously pointing out any flaws in his mods and/or approach. If he hasn't already, he may well discover something(s) that will benefit us all. -- rgro Rick System information ------------------------ Main: PS Audio Quintet > Touch (wireless) > CA DacMagic > Marantz PM8003 > VA Mozart Grands > REL Acoustics R305.
