Has anyone heard the modified TRL/Sony DVP-NS900V
711smilin, if the one TRL mod 900 you bought were the one sold twice in the past few weeks for $700 in condition 7/10, I believe that one still has the very original mod, not the latest extensive version. I remembered the original seller also ment...

Guys,Because I still have Tice Audio Sig PBIII HP and a few other stuff around, I thought I will give them a try also. Who knows if TRL 14 being modded to be battery powered, then there won't be much concerned; but I also wonder how much improveme...

Besides La45, does anyone else plug his/her TRL 14 into any power condition units? If so what brand and model is used and what are the differences? Thanks.

Jay,I would echo Clio09's commens, try CRL Gold if you like the CRL sonic attributes and would like to get more density in your overall sound. If memory serves me right, CRL Gold use about twice amount of copper (gauge-wise). The other way to expl...

Lawyerman,Thanks for your comment. You do have a nice rig there. Hearing quite a few WP7, and a couple MaxxII and X2 combos, although I haven't heard MAC and WP7 combination before, I guess it is good.I currently have one SA-14 being modded by TRL...

Lawyerman,Would you mind elaborating on the differences? I am very interested. Do you think a SA-1 can improve more if it also undergoes TRL mod? Also would you mind sharing the associating rigs and your experience with various PCs, ICs, and tweak...

Bob,By all mean, I am the one got the a TRL DV-9500 that got damaged by FedEx during shipment. I like much of what I heard on TRL 9500. That's why I haunt down an used SA-14 and it will be going to TRL directly for mod. :) I am looking forward to ... 
Which Krell to hunt down on the used market?
Personally I like the KAS2. To my ears, they have both positives of FPB and KSA S Series. It is definitely better than KSA300S I have heard in every aspect, yet it has treble trasnparency character that FPB cx series has but in a lesser extent. Fo...

To all TRL users with a vinyl setup, could you also share the impression about the sonic differences between your TRL and vinyl rigs? Thanks.

Lkdog,I also have some Quick Silver paste that I haven't had time to try yet. When I find some spare time, I will also give it a shot and see how it fares in my rig.I also heard a good news earlier from TRL that FedEX finally admitted the wrong do...

Jsala,Mine is the beautiful golden color!To all,For Quick Silver paste application, do you guys treat only the RCA sockets or are RCA plugs on IC's also treated? How much is needed? Can anyone also suggest the best way to apply 'appropriate' amount?

Ozzy,Thanks for sympathsizing with me about the situation. A replacement from TRL would be nice, but since my player is specially ordered from HK for its color, it is very difficult to souce from Marantz USA. Paul did try, but yielded no avail. Ho...

Jack,I look forward to reading your review on ST-225 SOON. :) Regarding your SA14, would you mind giving us a short comparison of it to your mater reels? If you also know anyone who has a top notch vinyle rig, I would love to know how SA14 comapar...

Ozzy,Actually Paul from TRL has been very helpful throught the whole process such far. While the pakcage was very well wrapped, when inspected it was even suspected by more than one FedEX staff that the package probably was dropped from a high pla...
