Experience with Modwright products?


Currently, I'm running in a Modwright LS99 preamp and KWA 99 monoblocks.  I have a dealer friend who wants them broken in or me to buy them or both. :)

Other than hearing Modwright products and briefly chatting with Dan at shows (he seems like a wonderful human and humble), I don't have any experience with their products. 

I thought my next move was going to Luxman, Allnic, Audio Research, or even a Japanese tube integrated.  Wow, am I impressed with this package out of the box. The linear Mosfet design with Class A up to whatever it is (say 25 watts) is really appealing to me. I run large horn loudspeakers. Just loving what I hear so far.

I have to imagine the products are built as well as they feel and service and relaibitily are stellar. Resale looks strong too. 

What experiences do our fellow 'Goners have with Modwright?  

Thank you all for your opinions and insight.

Been using my kwi 200 for some years now.When first came to market i had to send it back.Dan reassured me "this things going to last the rest of your life".Since then it has been solid performer.Musical honest timber.Reliable piece of gear.

I went through pre buying/conversations with this amp with him that my bar is set high...as i was looking at Pass,sim 600,700 ect...Dans amp was quite a bit less $ and its been a wonderfull product and am still enjoying it as it is a great match with my atc's.It will be on short list next time around.He is fairly local so that was another consideration.

Thank you all for the feedback!  

I must say that I'm super impressed with these products.  I would love to buy them from my dealer friend--not sure I can afford them or want to spend this much. But taking them out of my system won't be easy.  

Very nice timbre (as was mentioned above) to the music. Organic and earthy while not being watercolored or bloated. 

 

 

I have the KWA 150 SE and a LS 100 tube preamp. Very natural sounding and tons of texture IMO. 

He did an Oppo UDP-205 Mod for me, great work and it also sounds great.

Another thing to look forward to, is when you call Kristen will answer the phone and help you out to whatever question or problem you have.

Just great people to deal with

I have experience with Modwright and Khristan who works at Modwright relative to two Modwright products -i.e. an Oppo 105D which was modded by Modwright and the relatively new Modwright analog bridge. In each instance my experience has been very positive both in terms of accessibility, willingness to help and competency in the information and advice given. Kristen is likely to answer the telephone and she is very pleasant and helpful. If she can't help with your inquiry Dan is not afraid to get on the phone and patiently discuss your situation with you. The products themselves appear to be of very good quality and worthy of any good system.
