I had him do the full monty for a pair about 1.5 years ago. His communication, care and work was A+. They are driving a modified pair of Maggie 3a's and sound wonderful. Full spectrum, with excellent drive. Absolutely no complaints. You should be very pleased.
How was the sound of your TDSS upgrade to your Nuforce Ref 9 amps?
I'm very excited at the prospect of improved sound that will come from the TDSS level 3 upgrade to my Nuforce Ref 9 V3 SE mono amps. Bob Smith will be doing my amp upgrades in the next couple days. The biggest change will come from the much more powerful power supplies he's putting in. My system already sounds fantastic but he says it will be THE finest amp sound he has ever heard and thus will transform the Ref 9's into something few have ever heard. I have VMPS RM40 BCSE ribbon speakers with the MLS cabinets--in other words among the finest speakers Brian Cheney ever made. They are already on Sistrum SP-101 platforms with RTS couplers clamping them down--a fantastic combo in sound. I really can't imagine sound with more clarity with dynamics that are off the charts and extremely organic bass than I already have.
Tune in next week when I have the radically improved Ref 9's and I won't be able to wipe the grin off my face if all Bob says is actually true. The rest of my system is the TRL DUDE preamp, Whest 3.0 RDT SE phono, Modwright 5400 Signature Truth CD/SACD w/Bybees on the rails and Audio Magic Pulse Gen ZX, super Lenco 78 with most of JTN's mods included, Trans-Fi Terminator, Benz Micro Ruby 3, wires by Cerious Technologies Graphene Extreme SC, Teo GC ICs, JW Reference ICs, Amadi Maddie Signature ICs, power cables from WyWires Juice II, Amadi Phil Reference, Mojo Enigma, TRL Silver, and Core Power Technologies Equi=Core 150, and Star Sound Sistrum racks with RTS couplers clamping each component. I have Synergistic Research Blue fuses in the Nuforce amps, Whest, and Modwright 5400.
