stan warren,PIONEER mod.

hello,calsaint
turn time was 4 week's.

I sent a check on 3/13 and still have not recieved my mod DVD 333. There were/are some supply problems on the Black Gate caps, I think. I hope to get it soon.

I recieved a modified DV-434 today, (7-9-01.) While there was a 4 month wait, I look forward to breaking it in.

Charlie: Do you still use the Tos Link with the modified player or does it have a coaxial output? I have avoided trying the inexpensive Aiwa changer, mainly because I know little/nothing of Tos Link connections.

I do not plan on using a toslink with the Supermods DVD player, as it will be used in a second system as a stand alone player.

The toslink connection has been suggested as a way to reduce jitter, primarily to a dac. I have used three different toslink connectors with my DAC1 and the stock Pioneer DV-525 I use in my primary system. I now use the one that both Stan Warren and the old boys at the Cable Company suggest, (the Audio One Reference toslink at $150.) The differences were subtle to my ears, with the Audio One winning the techno art esthetic battle and remaining in place.

Did I ever mention how much I like my Harbeth C7ES speakers? [:)]
