Line Mangnetic CD player 515. Tube rolling .

Hi there, I've been so happy with it that I decided to leave it alone. I have done extensive tube rolling with my 518Ia and that's made incremental benefits. I've never been happier with my stereo end to end. Both the CD player And my TT are sounding the best I've ever heard them.  

borg7x9:

Congratulations on your 515 CD player. I hope you will consider changing the main power fuse to a Synergistic Research Black fuse. This change will really allow your player to reach it's full potential. They are sold with a 30 day trial - money back guarantee. Easy to order via the internet at High- End Electronics, Appley Valley, Calif. or from The Cable Company, New Hope, Penn.

I think you will hear a bigger improvement than from tube rolling!

Hi David and borg7x9:  I too just got a LM 515 CD player (and I also have the LM 518i amp).  This CD player is excellent and sounds so great paired with the 518. It doesn't seem to get much "press" but I can tell you it blows my Marantz away.  Very rich and full overall and much more bass extension. My VPI Prime is starting to collect a little dust since I hooked it up (I plead temporary insanity). I agree the stock tubes sound very nice and I don't have a major urge to change them out. 

But David...why would just changing out a fuse be such an improvement?

borg7x9:
as a LM 518 owner would like to ask you about tube rolling on this amp: briefly and in general, what do you recommend?
many thanks for answering
