Modwright Sony ES9000 vs. Lector 7P


Looks like this is my short list for a CD player upgrade in the $3000 range constraint. Any thoughts?

I already own the unmodified ES9000 and would go for the full Absolute truth mod if that's the direction I select.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Owner of the Lector myself - and done som tube rolling:

I've now tried with Siemens NOS as well as RFT NOS (former eastern Germany I quess) and the original CVC Chelmer valves.
The RFT tubes are best in my system, giving more precise bass as well as natural imaging. Detailed without beeing edgy.

Mullards are next on the list :-)
