your experience with mod or upgrade companies.....

i called c/j and talked with jeff, found out that cj now does upgrades for some of their equipment. my pv12 would be about 900.00 four just 5 caps. that seems a little high for just that amount of work. what other compy that you know of is doing this, i know a while back i heard about different ones, but you dont hear to much now. there was a group of indian guys i talked with a while back that seem to do a lot more for at lot less, but i forgot the name of them.. please give me your input, as always is appreciated.......

I have a Oppo BDP-105. If and when I mod the unit it would most likely be sent to Mod Wright. Not too sure about the "Upgrade company". Both Mod Wright and Rick at EVS systems explain what is done and what happens to the unit when modified! If the Upgrade company choose to keep it a secret they won't get my money.

I don't have an Oppo but the reviews on Dan Wright's (Modwright) are very good. His own products sure are IMHO

Depending on the caps. V-Caps? Send me your amp and I will convert it to point-to point wiring making it much better than swapping out a few caps.

Happy Listening.

WOW!!! I was sent some pictures of an Upgraded Company player and the Oppo had blue paint all over the place and the aluminum foil tape that wraps around the wires were covered in a black cloth tape. The guy said the blue paint was AVM fluid. Whatever that means. The aluminum foil tape looks like tape my heating guy uses and the cloth tape looks like tape that you use to fix a hole in your old VW seat. Maybe all this stuff helps with vibration? Not sure about the EMI/RFI riddance technology verbage on the Upgrade Company website. Does the tape and blue fluid get rid of distortion or something? Not my cup of tea that's for sure.
