Hello friends,

I'm struggle on whether to get a MPS5 or MPS3, I know it is a matter of budget however my concern is whether worth for double the money, anyone can help ?

I had the MPS-5 cd player and I like my Modright Tube Modded Oppo 95 better. 17,000.00 vs 3,000.00
Well please don't leave us in suspense Jwm. Please detail how the modded Oppo 95 bettered the MPS-5? Any particular areas where the Oppo clearly excelled? Were there any other areas which you thought the MPS-5 drew even on?

I have an Oppo 95. How does the mod advance the sound?
It bettered it in every way except one. The MPS has a touch deeper bass. The Oppo was way more organic (musical), more natural. The top end was more refined. The soundstage and depth were fantastic. The MPS was flatter, leaner, and was tilted more towards the top. I never heard the original Oppo, but my friend Bob did at last years RMAF when he heard the original Oppo 95 vs the Modright modded Oppo 95.
I also have a modded Oppo and it's no where near the sonic equivalent of our MPS-5
That is why there are so many manufactures out there. You obviously hear very differently than I do. I had three friends who have great ears and all thought the Modright tube Modded Oppo creamed the MPS-5. What modded Oppo do you really have.
