Exemplar Modified Oppo 93?

I have heard both the Exemplar/Oppo 93 and 95. I find both great, but the 95 is clearly superior. Were I to have a player, I would certainly buy the 95. Presently, I have no capability to play my SACDs, but I find a music server very convenient and with better sound than even the 93, but I have not tried the 95 against it.

Interesting! John Tucker told me the modified 93 was better than the modified 95, but that was a year ago or so.

Jfz, I was told that also a year ago, but this was not what I heard at the 2012 CES.

Both the 93 and 95 are great players.

The 93 has that "see through" sound that John Tucker is noted for. A very musical presentation with lots of detail. I'd put it up against virtually any player, it's a strong performer.

But as good as the 93 is, the 95 is better. Better base, and a realism in the midrange that is incredible. But that in no way diminishes the 93.

Thanks for your response, 84audio. I'm now considering the 95. Do have any experience or thoughts about the Exemplar "vs" Modwright mods on this player?

Thanks very much!
