Sony playstation 1

Have any of you listened to a PS-1 that has been modded and tweaked?

Yep I have....Junk in /junk out!

So I guess 6-moons and stereophile can not listen to the great gear you own. Why would at least two mags who could not sell ads for a outdated game player speak so highly of it?

So I guess you can spend 5 grand on a player whose lazer is going to go bad and hope you can still get one as the industry goes to computer drives.

The assumption is the sony sounds good because of the dac. How do we know it is not the transport?

Tomwh..I never said I have great gear..I never would spend 5 grand on a player and I pay very little attention to mags....So I guess,just my opinion

i was sceptical about all the ps1 hype, but there actually is something to it--the damn thing does sound weirdly good, almost vinyl-like and free from digital glare. i didn't like using that silly controller, but that's just me. i agree that it doesn't make sense to modify it or bypass the dac--i'd use it as-is.
