I DID NOT SAY THAT. IF YOU READ WHAT I SAID, YOU WOULD KNOW THIS! I said it was the ONLY one I would use! I know there are others! HELLO. Keithmundy you got nothing better to do ...no comment that might enlighten the original post??
The modwright has not only an external power supply, the tubes stick up unprotected through the top, so it takes up a tremendous amount of room. It may sound good, but it looks like a ridiculous kluge.
Keep in mind that the Modwright option utilizes a substantial external power supply that is great in terms of performance, but may be a problem in terms of space.
You should at least call Ric Schultz at EVS. I am pleased with the output board mod he did for me, and he has a range of options for solid state mods at reasonable prices. If you really want a tube output, then of course Modwright is the big option.
Totally disagree with Modwright only. I sent mine to John Tucker of Exemplar Audio and it is world class. I have been told by folks who have heard them both that the Exemplar is a step above. I am not downplaying Modwright, just the comment that they are the only game in town.
I hate CD/DVD/blue ray players for audio use. The Oppo 105 with Modwright mod is one of the few players that will get me to stay in a demo room when its playing.
Modwright is the only one I would send my BDP-105D to, if I had one. LOL. Seriously though, I wouldn't trust anyone but Dan Wright and the people at Modwright, Its not called the TRUTH mod for nothing.
