TRL Marantz Sa-14



After speaking to Paul at TRL I am very curious to hear from those who own this unit what improvements do you hear with the player before and after the mod.

The SA-14 sounds weak in the bass and has no dynamics in comparison to some players like the Sony Scd-1 in stock form. Has anyone compared the TRL Sa-14 to the Sony Scd-1?

Does anyone know who purchased Paradles SA-14 ? Just curious if we could get him or her on this thread for verification reasons. The SA-14 police,over! What's your 10-20 good buddy? Over!
I didn't buy it Joe. Whomever did has 50 hours less break in ... :)

BTW, did you guys see Clio09's review of the TRL/Audio Mirror DAC? http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ddgtl&1130770464&read&3&zzlClio09&&

I wish that the pro reviews were this well written and had as much useable detail as to the sound ...

Well done, Clio09!

My SA-14 arrived in my system yesterday. Let the break-in begin! My comment is that the SA-14 was boxed very professionally by TRL. I almost hated to unpack the player because the craftmanship in packing was so well done. I know that sounds crazy but I was amazed. I got over it and put the player in the system. I'm leaving it on 24/7 so I should be good to go in about 3 weeks. I will check on it at about the half way point in about 10 days and report my thoughts. Bob
C'mon Bob.......we all know you've had a sneak listen, or two. ;-)

Looking forward to your thoughts in about 10 days. :-)

happy listening......when ever that may be.
