Help-Genesis Digital Lens

Kana813 - Thanks for the offer to share some tweaks. With the Genesis long out of production and the company not willing to share the schematic with even a respected modification/repair company like GNSC, once a Genesis has a failure, most likely it's bound for the scrap heap....and that's unfortunate.

Since the Genesis brings on a huge improvement in my system, I am reluctant to do any tweaking to risk damage or failure. I did take it to GNSC and Steve Huntley felt there was not enough room under the hood to address some changes he would otherwise have done. And his concern of possibly causing damage was also there.

If someone would be willing to report the actual before and after differences, pros and cons, it would give a Genesis owner greater insight as to whether or not to take the risk to modify the unit. Until I can get a handle on such sonic benefits, I do not just want to start soldering away with a handful of component changes.

Use this as an excuse to get a Harmony remote. They're worth the money; I've owned dozens of universals and this is the only one I've ever loved.

Looking at how Kana813 and Millenium were pissing on the thread it is obvious in other threads that they pissed and made up.

john,
maybe JP can contact mrhienedaudio and he can send you pictures of the work he does to the genesis lens. has anyone seen any internal pictures of mrhiendaudio's work ?? i had one done by him. now that my tact amp has been modded correctly by aberdeen components, the need for these bandaids from the past, are no longer needed. don't you find it strange that PAUL MCGOWAN finds no need to create a new version of the lens ???

Bill-

Mr.McGowan's decision not to build a new lens, was based on the results of a poll he took on his website.

IMO, with so many new high jitter digital sources and different digital formats, there's still a need for a devise like the lens.

PS- I'm sure Aberdeen would be happy to help lens owners upgrade their units, if they're not DIYers.
