@knighttodd How would you describe the difference vs the Audio GD? Also, what streamer are you pairing with it? My Modwright CXN improved with NOS tubes as well if you are still using the supplied JJ tubes from Modwright.

@delvalle23 NOS Phillips 6922. Also, upgraded the fuse and grounded one of the digital inputs.

@knighttodd I recently added a few additions to the Modwright CXN which significantly improved the unit. First I applied sound deadening material on the inside cover of the casing as it’s thin and prone to vibrations (recommended by Dan). Then I placed 3 Vibracone footers in a triangle formation with 2 in the front right underneath the transformers. This drains the vibrations caused by the transformers away from the chassis. Both of these changes increased the soundstage and dynamics significantly. The great thing is it only cost about $50 and less than an hour of effort!

@blkwrxwgn No, all of the improvements from the Truth Mod are in the analog output stage.

I had a chance to borrow my friend's unit to listen in my system and was blown away. Didn't hear it prior to the mod but it's definitely the most organic, full sounding digital front end I've heard. Will probably be my next upgrade piece....
